The Ten Essentials of House Painting Equipment 

I was fully expecting the 10th item to be the cassette player!

Your seasoned. I'm a little more experienced I think and enjoyed watching this. It boosted my moral. Thanks for posting.

You are killing it man!

Thanks again for your great tutorials. I purchased your book. Thanks again.

Just watched your room series, cool. Liking the decision to go with one good brush for the majority of work. Nice to see how professionals avoid getting more paint on themselves than the surface! Prefer taping off for cutting in on trim... paint the trim first, then mask off on that smooth surface for a perfect finish with the wall. Especially for people like me who don't cut in on a daily basis professionally. However a professional can't often do this as they can't always wait around for the trim to dry hard enough to take the tack of the tape safely without risking a disastrous peel. With this method you have to take care that the tape is good quality and clean (keep in a plastic bag), and that the gloss of the overlap onto the wall is covered well enough not to flash through at all. Grew up hearing the saying 'a bad workman always blames his tools', but the bottom line is, no matter how good you are, you can't paint the Mona Lisa with a broom! Get a good brush and roller! Cheers John, sorry I can't hire you as I'm on the other side of the Atlantic.

ladders, especially the one for stairs.

you remind me of an english instructor at eiu (unfortunately, he is no longer with us on earth..sad day) - very cool, mr. burbidge.

Enjoyed all the videos, you look like the ice cream man with that white clothing, not complaining obviously!

That Purdy brush is excellent...I just used it for painting. Great suggestion.

Had me fucking dead at 1:58 with that short skit of him tripping over lmao

What about sprayers? Do you use them? What do you think of them? I have been painting a short time and I started with a Wagner. I want to buy a airless some day but my uncle discourages me from doing so. I wanted to know what you thought about spraying???

Great work! What should I use to clean a pre-primed steel door before painting it? I know to sand it a little bit. Should I use TSP or denatured alcohol? I don't wanna screw it up, lol. Thanks!

Why a canvas drop cloth rather than plastic?

never mind. you had them hiding in your toolbox. They are essential for helping some painters get the job then maybe even use them on the job.

Wheres the cooler of beer and smoke? ;) Roll Tide

4:34 I thought he was talking about something else😅
