Thanks for the info

Thanks for all the tips. I will be painting my home for the first time in 20 years.

Can you use mahogany stain over the top ?

Why use a brush rather than a roller? A roller gives a far superior finish compared to the stokes of a brush 🙁

I use now zip-lock bagsfor the brushes or if possible keep your rollers in the (half)full paint can. Other option is large glass jars to put roller in and fill up with paint.

So you don’t paint the door jam area?

Weird question but on an exterior door frame do you paint the hinge side? We tried looking it up but some say you do and others say no due to sticking??

My house has a very old YELLOW (80s color) how to color it with white, any idea. I tried 3 quotes but still yellow shed is still there.

Your customers are lucky to have you! I am doing a diy interior paint job at my house and even with my handy man, this is some real sweat labor work. I felt a little bad for my 2 dozen spackle spots. I was thinking to myself, I might as well just re-mud out the wall but after seeing your due diligence, I’m sure I could persist. Thanks for the content

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your channel! Very informative and delightfully entertaining. My question is, what is the best way to remove a brass kick plate from a medal front entry door that is glued and not magnetic attached? The door is glossy black. I am changing it to SW Iron Ore with brush nickel door handles and keypad deadbolt keyless top lock. Also, it has a brass door knocker above the peep hole. Thank you so very much. 😊

Bro that shit costs 90 bucks a gallon......I use emerald on trim and cabinets but that's about it. It's excellent paint without a doubt but most people won't go for the price point.

I’ve never heard you mention the sherwin Williams premium ceiling paint . It’s like the emerald of ceiling paint. I used in my bathroom, it’s holding up great and I take some hot showers

What is best for exterior painting? Flat or Satin ???? we need paint our house from outside it is mixed between aluminum side and brick,,,,,,,, The weather in MI mixed between snow at winter and hot and humid at summer,,,,, please please answer my question thank you so much ❤️🙏

This is a totally different industry. But to prove a point about not gettting what you specifically asked for as the customer, this is like a tattoo artist getting the design for somebody's tattoo and them being set on what they want it to look like, then the artist says that they aren't gonna do that design and instead go with what the artist thinks look better instead of doing the tattoo the client specfically asked for. As a person providing a service to people, there may be some things customers ask for that you don't personally agree with that you personally think could be improved from your POV. But what with being said, if a customer asks for a very specfic way for the service or product to be handled, you gotta go with that in most cases, unless the request in actually gonna create a product or service that won't work at all. The only reason I use tattoos is because I have noticed that tattoo artists are very gatekeepy on the art they do especially when you get the very well known artists that have done work on celebrities, wealthy people, etc. If I pay for a service or product, I want it the way I asked, not your personal preference as the person providing that product or service. Or you can say the same thing about food. If a customer goes to a restaurant and order a steak medium, but the chef thinks that the steak will be better rare, that personal preference shouldn't have any bearing on how that steak comes out of the kitchen. It needs to be the way the customer asked and that's it. But yeah, that's my rant. I can't stand it when people providing a service wanna change what you asked for because they personally don't agree with it. Just do the service I payed you for.

I use the SW pro mar, recently on a textured ceiling and I used a 14” 3/4 nap roller great one coat coverage .

HI! This was so helpful to watch! I have a question though, is there a reason why you're filling holes AFTER you stain and paint? Should I do this as well or does it not matter if I fill holes first and then do stains/paint? Thanks :)

so paint and primer in one is useless?

So can you come do my stairs? Please.

What is best for room paint? Semi gloss or matte

Just picked up 2 gals of promar for $24/gal. Sometimes all you have to do is ask!

No gloss huh is it built in

Do you paint the top and bottom edges on new construction ?

Do you pint the tops and bottoms of interior doors ?? Esp on new build

My favorite neutral color is SW agreeable grey. It’s so easy to change the look of the color by the decor imo.

This paint falls well short of the 80$ price tag. It doesnt cover well, it runs but somehow doesnt self level very well. Even with dense foam roller leaves texture. Takes 2/3 coats to cover. More coats means more impections

I have enjoyed this video! You guys are hilarious and talking about the names of the animals 😅 every time he named one I'm like okay what is that! But a yak I do know of lol How long do you wait between coats? This other lady's video said 3 hours to do another coat.

Any thoughts on the new Premium ceiling paint from SW?

Why are you using the light sockets instead of just turning the lights on? Did i miss something?

Do you think this could cover whiteboard paint? If so, should I sand the whiteboard paint first with 220 or something?

I absolutely love this channel thank you so much

Thanks!

For us in Scotland it was an elsie we all done it

Any thoughts on AR2 that’s been my go to for a while now no flashing dries well and touches up great

CHB

Amazing professional information. Thank you!

How long do you have to wait to put tape on the freshly stained and poly’d stair top?

Would you prime the brand new siding prior pain. I was going to do two coats of paint but not sure if I should prime the exterior first? Thank you.

Sign up for a Pro Account at Sherwin Williams. We get Promar Ceiling Paint for $24 a gallon. Cashmere Low Luster for bathroom ceilings. If you have a big project, ask the manager for a test run on up to 20 gallons for huge savings in $.

I have used just regular ole Promar 200 for ceilings (I always like Promar 200 paints) , I never even saw a promar 200 "ceiling paint" , and I will check it out , if they don't have it , I'll try the valspar ...... I did notice the promar can just said "white" not "extra white" or "high reflective white" , just "white" ...... may I ask , is that "white" a bit "whiter" than "extra white" ??? Because "extra white" is a wee bit "grayish" , and the Behr ceiling white is "too white" looks sterilized !!!! lol ..... Of course one problem I have with ceiling paints is if I do some crown with Emerald "High Hide White" (again a wee grayish not real white) and if the ceiling is "super bright white" it can make the trim look "dingy" ..... Extra White and High Hide White are just a tad "not white enough" in my opinion , just has that wee bit grayish to it ...... which is okay if you use "Extra White Flat" on the ceiling ...... I guess BLM is right "whites are a problem" ... lol

Great stuff as usual brother👍🏻 Always enjoy your vids and look forward to more, I’m just a diy’er but I find it all interesting. It’s good brain food lol I respect and appreciate you trying to help the diy’ers out👊🏻

I live in Houston, the Promar Ceiling Paint is only available by special order. (I have a pro account)

ok. branching out. How about SW HGTV Ceiling Paint? It performed well in my tests.

This is the best ever. Have used it since 2020. amazing coverage, doesnt splatter much and dries beautifully one coat in most cases.

Thanks for the video! How do these compare these to Benjamin Moore Waterborne and Super Hide? The Waterborne applied and covered very well, but was quite messy and had more surface texture than we expected.

Great Advice. I'm going to try the 14" roller on my basement remodel.

What type of wood is that? Oak?

Hello - Loving all your videos! I have not done very much painting in my 38 years and I'm about to embark on re-painting ALL the ceilings, walls, trim (interior and exterior), doors, kitchen cabinets, and in some places the wood floors of my fairly dirty 119 years old, 750 sq ft house. You've done a few videos on doors, which I plan to use for painting my cabinets. Would you please consider posting a video on painting kitchen cabinets specifically? Also, have you ever re-painted old metal kitchen cabinets in gloss or hi-gloss? What about painting ugly stained and sealed dirty honey oak discount home-improvement type cabinets that have never been painted before? Have you done a kinda-rotted-at-the-bottom garage door? A-bit-crumbly exterior trim that you don't have the cash to replace and want to prevent from totally rotting out until you do have the money/time to replace it? I'm pregnant with twins (!!) and trying to get most of this done before it gets too cold to paint in MN in October. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your straightforward and entertaining videos!
