@onenikkione Год назад

Have a bucket with warm water and rag nearby to instantly wipe any small error. After sanding, run your dry hand across the wall, if there is dust from sanding wipe the walls clean. Use a mildly sticky roller on your paint roller to remove loose fibers before using it to paint @ 15:49 he removes some fibers from the wall. Before you start cutting in with the brush, load up your roller and leave it in the paint tray (not in the paint area) and place the tray in a 13-gallon garbage bag (so it doesn't start to dry out), this preps the roller & gives time for the paint to soak in.

AFTER YOU SAND THE WALL DONT YOU WIPE THE DUST OFF?. if you don’t then when you paint over it it will gritty. I don’t know what to do

@JamNJ1985 2 года назад

I am a 15 year professional painter. I completely endorse this video. Great advice. But the truth is most homeowners just don't have the patience to do this. Some do. I've seen fantastic homeowner paint work and absolute disaster. I'd say the wet edge that you mentioned is one of the most important details you addressed. Rolling somewhat "quickly" helps the wet edge so it all drys uniformly. Another pro tip is try to finish each roll stroke from top to bottom so all the stipple matches. Also the lower the sheen the better the hide on imperfections or any high or low spots on the sheetrock seems. Love your videos. Well done

@bill9097 2 года назад

That is what I was thinking too. I'm a contractor and we don't usually sub out out interior painting. I don't know that I would suggest these techniques to DIY homeowners - it takes many hours of practice to cut in by hand like this. I still advise my DIY clients to tape+caulk most cut-in lines, especially between two high-contrast colors. Yeah, it takes more time but they are not on the clock - they will get sharper lines than hand cutting IMO

Notes! Remove cover plates Dust and sand wall Open and mix paint Angle brush to quarter inch away from edges until loaded with paint (let it fan out) Gradually sneak up on edge to cut Paint all edges, including under cover plates (about 4”) Wash angle brush immediately Pour paint into liner and load up roller brush Start very gently, go over uneven areas, stretch out paint Cling to wet edge, keep lead edge wet, no breaks! Pull out lint and back-roll, consistent texture Never change direction (always vertical!) short rolls when necessary Give at least an hour Sand the wall again Load up angle brush, and wipe post of paint off, use less this time Precision cut all edges on wall Roller the wall for second coat (don’t move on to other wall), lighter layer Clean paint out of roller sleeve (throw away roller sleeve?) Don’t hang anything on wall for 48 hours or so, and wait 30 days before washing

@sandravogel5256 2 года назад

I'm a newly minted retired nurse too. Congratulations on your career and enjoy your renovations. I am currently repainting all the interior walls of my house and followed this fellow's video to a tee and was disappointed in the finish. I chose a Velvet paint over an eggshell, so im not sure if this made a difference. My walls had a "stripey" finish which was especially noticeable on the walls with the most sun exposure I.e. my whole living room. My elderly father was a contractor and according to him, has painted thousands of walls and I should have asked him for his tips and tricks first, but I turned to youtube and this video and i noticed your "nurse" comment at that time. I've re-done my paint job with my Dad's advice and I'm so happy with the results. ( I had to completely and thoroughly sand and prime the walls as the stripey finish would have haunted every layer of paint) The only tips I'm keeping from this video are how to cut in the ceiling and around the trim. I didn't need to tape off anything and only had to wipe up a couple of spots where I goofed and got a little paint on the trim. My Dad's advice: Wash, patch and sand areas if needed. Put a light coat of primer over the spackled areas. Lightly sand the walls with ~150 grit sandpaper and wipe down with a clean microfiber mop head. Prime the walls with primer ...very important step and don't skip it according to my Dad Lightly Sand between all coats of paint with 180 to 220 grit paper and wipe away the dust again with the clean microfiber mop. I know this fellow in the video says wiping after sanding not needed ever but why get dust and such stuck in your paint finish. Divide the wall length horizontally in 3 sections and about 4 feet vertically. Apply paint with a 6mm to 10 mm roller ( the video says 18 mm but this gives a thick heavy textured look that i didnt like and the smaller pile roller gives a smoother finish) In the ~3x4 foot sections going from the ceiling to the floor, Apply the paint in a M then roll over this M horizontally in a zip zag motion Do this to the other 2 sections below your first section. Once all three areas are done now lightly roll in one direction from the ceiling to the floor covering your last roller mark a few inches. Work quickly. Now start on the next 4 foot piece of wall and repeat. Honestly, I actually used less paint with this technique and the painting of the wall went quicker then the video's techniques and best of all...No stripes in the finish! Hope this unsolicited advice helps you avoid the costly time and money mistakes I made this week. Best of luck in your retirement and your painting. 💗

Jeff - I SO OWE YOU! 10 days ago I painted my Closet-To-Voiceover Room conversion project w/ 2 coats of primer (over new plaster). Today, I laid down my first color coat. I have never felt so satisfied and accomplished as I do right now. The sanding step ( never did this step until this project) and 2nd color coat have yet to be applied. AND MY ARMS & BACK FEEL GREAT (that’s a first)! I have been amateur / DYI painting our homes for 35 years. I got pretty good at taping rooms over that time. That said, I HATE taping, the time it takes, the removal process, and (even with Frog Tape) my still not superior results. This is the first time I have ditched the tape and tried to freehand cut my edges lines. Learning curve for sure, but already I’m getting as good if not better results. Likewise, we have always used either bargain or mid-range priced paint. We went higher end this time. That change, with breaking free from the tyrant of the “W-Method” (that I had been told for years was THE way to make a DIY job look good) has made a paradigm shift in my results and my enjoyment! Tomorrow is sanding and second coat. I would normally be looking for an excuse to “let the paint cure a little longer.” As it stands, I can’t get to sleep and I’m fighting the urge to go check my room again! Your videos, tips, expert advice that is easy to understand and follow, have been a game changer! God bless you, Guy!!!

Just want you to know how much this video helped me, i started painting a couple of years ago when i found the house i wanted to rent the landlord had a leg injury and asked me if i would paint the house to cover the rent so of course was all in, I found out i have a good steady hand and was decent but had no idea of the fundamentals of being a real painter, ive painted over 14 houses for him now and have been struggling to find a good technique, he does have a pro painter-contractor on the job that i would love to learn from but i think he thought i was trying to take his work so he provided very little insight, so one day i look too ole youtube and find you and now im 10 times faster, the thing holding me back was that i was so slow it took me forever to paint a whole house, these tips have changed my world, tips like use the paint inside the brush, using hot mud to prevent flashing and quicker dry times, after this video i bought a hawk and a good brush and got a job done in a week that would have taken me months before, so thank you for the tips i could not find anywhere else.

Thank you so much for your "how to" interior painting videos. My husband passed 8 years ago, and this is the first time I've tackled painting alone. Your videos made it easy but, better yet, took away the stress I was feeling about diving in. I just have to say that 8-in-one painter's tool is a little bit of magic, along with adding the extension stick to the roller. I was just going to repaint the living room, but now I feel confident to refresh all the rooms.

So I just painted my room, following the video. A couple of obervations: - Clean the dust off the wall after sanding - USE PRIMER (i'm not sure if this is how its called). This layer of primer will make your paint stick and will allow the paint to be spread evenly. Otherwise its all gonna be a disaster. - Stir up the paint with a stick before pouring - Use good tools

@ashleaclark5462 Год назад

I was looking for this comment as he didn’t wipe off the dust after sanding and I was certain it was an important step to take

@j340_official Год назад

Some paints don’t require primer or have primer in them. I just painted my new home in sherwin Williams emerald satin. No primer but applied two coats over the cheap flat white the builder used. I sanded and patched holes and other stuff. And the paint job came out beautifully. The most important part is rolling in the same direction and backrolling to even out the paint eliminate roller lines. The final job is beautiful, No lap lines nothing it looks professional. The only thing I’d add is to backroll the cut ins with a roller while the paint is still wet to change the texture and minimize brush lines.

I'm mastering the edging and finally getting even strokes on the rolling. And not having to tape everything up is make life so much easier. Thank you so much. I feel comfortable now to tackle some of the more visible areas of the house that need repainting.

@krishnanaidoo2758 2 года назад

In order to prevent the paint brush handle and steel band from getting messed up, try taping it with masking tape. At the end of the job remove the tape cos when it dries up it is a pain to remove. In that way your handle and steel band remains clean like new.

@messemphanger 2 года назад

In my years of painting as an amateur, I never knew about sanding between coats. Great advice!

@eirebhoy132 2 года назад

Sounds like an absolute waste of time, I’d personally advise sanding before if needed and I know I’m no pro but I’ve done a lot painting over the last 15 years I can’t say I’ve ever experienced a sandpaper like finish he describes in this video, the biggest reason it sounds like a waste of time however is because who the hell is feeling up their walls 😂 as long as you’re happy with how it looks I’d seriously recommend spending your time on anything else instead

@carlindurfee7566 2 года назад

I wiped all my walls before I painted them by I didn’t think to sand them. They have two coats but I have plenty of extra paint would it be worthwhile to slightly sand it by hand and do one more coat? It’s my finished basement and it looks fine there’s some grip but you have to get up really close to see it. Also I have a 5 gallon bucket so it was hard to precisely pour only what I needed. So I’ve had the excess pain sitting in the roller contained under a plastic bag and little chunks started to dry. What should I do get rid of it?

Followed your guidance to the letter to paint my living room this week, the results were amazing. In particular the 360 degree sander, magnetic paint brush pots, sanding between coats and most of all first time I’ve used the extender poll for the roller [I forgot to buy the stand which I’ll do next time] which was a game changer for me ! Also, after the first coat / edging cutting in I did a wall at a time so for the second coat, edging one wall then rollering it which gave excellent results. We think it’s the best paint job we’ve ever done plus we saved $1,800 in labour costs. Thanks again Cheers Declan - Brisbane, Australia.
