Dont paint the hinges.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Preparing your window for paint is key including using the right type of primer for your window frame. When painting vinyl, aluminum or PVC windows I like to go over all smooth surfaces with a foam roller to knock down any brush strokes for a professional finish. Be sure to protect your window seals on your vinyl windows with tape so you don't cause your window seals to fail resulting in foggy glass.
Lol a foam roller leaves orange peel. Lay off the paint with a brush. No marks if you can paint.
Nice ! What type of (oil) did he use before the prime coat, not seen that before! TY
My thoughts exactly
I never knew that you could get putty in a tube. thats a fantastic and tidy way of putting putty on.
It will still take anywhere from 3-30 days to cure if it's real putty.
That gun-in putty shrinks back horribly, unlike the real stuff. I learned the hard way, and then its a bugger to get out.
Doesn’t have good reviews.
First. You don't remove putty with an exacto knife. That's a great way to mess up your wood. Use a small spatula, a narrow chisel or even a plastic windshield ice scraper before you break out a blade.
Second. You never scrape paint before doing a lead test.
Third. You don't scrape hardware. That's just lazy. Take that window out of there and use proper paint removal techniques.
4. Don't sand that wood before you put something over the glass like painters tape. Why risk scratching the glass? Butcher's paper and painters tape would protect it completely.
5. You don't paint hardware on a window that's mounted. Lazy. Again. Take that window down and do it right.
6. Oil the wood before you prime? It's called condition the wood and that wood clearly wasn't ready for conditioning. It still had heaps of paint on it and needed to be thoroughly cleaned and prepared.
7. You need to wait after you condition the wood to see if it needs sanding again because sometimes conditioning can raise the grain and show you spots where you missed.
8. That is definitely NOT how you smooth putty. You don't lick your finger and rub the putty. You use a friggin' moist towel or sponge, or even a napkin but for Pete's sake don't get your spit on the window (enzymes in saliva actually break down the putty a bit) AND you don't put a putty covered finger back in your mouth sicko.
9. Now they tape??
10. You don't need to gob on the paint like that. It's better to do two thin coats than one overly thick uneven coat like this.
11. Painting hardware while the window is still hung?? Now the paint will crack the first time that window is opened, allowing moisture underneath the paint and causing rust. Good job.
Sounds like you need a date.

You sound insufferable
Just like that, no good morning, no nothing? Link us to your youtube channel katie
No sorry that's how we do it in new Zealand. Loose stuff when knock off with a filling blade or a linbide, he replaced all the glazing not just what was really fucked so he had to cut the glazing close to the wood. Otherwise you may aswell get a chisel and hammer and smash the window with a easy mistake lol. I use a chisel but no one else at any company I've painted for has used them
Also hardly anyone has the time on their jobs to remove windows. We silver sheen our hinges and they don't crack. Looks nice with a metallic finish also. Taking windows on and off can be a whole other can of worms
what kind of 'puddy' is best for this work? ive used drywall compound in the past for interior and caulking and was able to get good results but I know thats not the proper stuff. thanks
It's called window glaze. The best stuff is Sarco Dual-Glaze, which you can order online. Take it out of the bucket and press it into cardboard overnight before use to get some of the oil out so that it's workable, and not sticking to your hands too much.
Thank you for the video
Great job! Can you tell me the type of paint which was used on the main house and trim (i.e. Sherwin Williams Superpain, Gauntlet Gray). Thanks.
Sorry, I don't know what brands was used. But facade paint for the house and window paint for the trims
Good work
How can you paint the hinges... Then they don't open properly
You need to let the putty cure for 7-21 days depending on the weather before you paint it.. when it completes forming its skin to paint over.. from what I know
the only way to get a new look finish on this window is to strip the whole thing back to bare and then 4 coats of a oil based finish and use real putty completion time depending on putty around 2 weeks decorator 10 years
Well done! Thanks for video and explanations!
Glad that it could help :)

Is it safe to scrape and sand led based paint like that Anza??
No, it is NOT. Depending on your country's applicable laws, you may not be able to dry sand or dry scrape lead-based paints and other coatings. And remember that lead based paints/coatings were used for decades in some countries, including old stocks not required to be destroyed. So even dwellings (including apartments) may have lead-based paints or coatings such as varnishes and stains applied to walls, floors, cabinets, baseboards, etc.
.
In the United States the Federal lead-paint ban dates back to only 1978; decades ago lead was in paint and some other coatings. The USEPA urges homeowners to 'work wet' to avoid creating lead-contaminated dust by using damp rags and paint removers when and where possible instead of scraping or sanding. US professional contractors have to be certified in recognizing and abating lead-based paint/coating hazards. In some case special escapsulating paints must be used used over old lead-based paints/coatings in good condition.
.
Please consult your country's environmental or health and safety agencies for country-specific guidance.
what is the oil for?
It is probably linseed oil and it soaks into the dry wood frame. Purpose is to keep the dry wood from sucking the oil from glazing putty. If the putty oil is drawn away, the putty gets brittle and eventually cracks. As a better alternative, I’ve been told that using an oil based primer on the bare wood will seal it thus prevent the oil being drawn out of putty.
Interesting
@@cynthiamoon372 Yeah big mistake my father kept making we lived next to an alleyway and consequently got quite a few windows broken by vandals he did replace the sash pains with the correct 3mm glass to balance with the balancing weights though but didn't prime the wood so eventually the putty dried out cracked let water get to the wood even though he did seal the putty by painting a few weeks after fitting the glass to seal it in.
How about if the paint isn't coming off can i just paint over it with new paint?
Hard to say, it depends on the surface
If the surface is sound yes. If you can't remove the paint with a linbide (paintscraper) or 60-80 grit sandpaper and it doesn't look all cracked then sand it to de gloss, prime (to be safe) and paint. The "official" test is take a craft knife cut an X put selotape over the 'X' press it firmly down and pull it off like a bandaid. That'll tell you if any previous paint coats or filler has broken down
Not one per house but one per surface, your prevailing side will be worse for wear generally
What oil? The people at the paint store don't know what that's about. Are you using a wood sealer? Mineral oil? Olive oil?
From Cynthia Moon below... best answer I could find (I had the same question - I'll just use Oil based paint on my windows.)

thankkkss
Thanks
Why would you paint the hinges??
no talk or repairing separating corner joints of wooden frames and it sure looked there were plenty on the old window he was restoring.
oil for the primer?

@@coreykaye4467 Very interesting. I wasn't sure why the glazing cracked. I assumed it was because water got in, when I was a kid.
I'm testing water-based paint on semi-dried oil glazing lol
What kind of oil would you use before priming? Nowadays we have wood primer, so I guess no need to oil
Linseed?
@@leeluv96 What other oils can you use when you dont have linseed?
@@youtubeaddict5663 hey I don't even know if linseed is appropriate.
@@leeluv96 😂 I’ve seen it mentioned on other putty videos so it must be
@@youtubeaddict5663 YAY my years working at a art supply store when I was in college did not go in vain. I remembered something I learned!!! Art stores are a lot like hardware stores. ❤
Nice job
Not
Remember to cut your sandwich in half, eat one bite at a time, unscrew your thermos too like this, and pour your tea......... ☺️

Wonderful instruction! 10/10 would recommend this video! #notarobot
What seemed so simple as going into a store and picking out different appliances for the house. These are things that last twenty years or even more with caricature markings plus memories of days gone by. Just because you have kids now, doesn't really stop you from picturing it with just the two you living there I invested in Dako Windows USA.
what kind of sand paper?? errr what #
Grit 120
Use 40 for quicker work.
Yeah I just got ta wbu was a day
Let me tell you what you need. Sand paper. Oil based paint. A piece of cloth. Paint thinner. There you go.
Watching this makes me depressed, but receiving the estimate of 2300$ for 13 windows is even more depressing. Not sure what I am going to do. DIY where I can reach, and hire for the upper level. Anyway, it is all very depressing. Why the window painting job is so high.....????......
Lifebee LifeBee time is money, thats all.
I guess, al least they make excuse for the inflated health care that the doctors get expensive 12 years education to charge us $160 er 20 minutes. This painters charge $59 per hour. Ridiculous
Because people that are skilled in their trade have spent years perfecting the skill to carry out tasks which drones like you wouldn’t have the first clue how to do properly.
The market defines the rate for services such as these through supply and demand.
13 windows? That is an extremely reasonable price.
I wouldn’t take that job on because I’m superstitious.
$2300 for 13 windows? Where do you live, out of curiosity. I would estimate it's going to cost me almost $10k for new windows, $2300 sounds amazing! Lol
@@SmithDesignLab repaint them not to replace
SMOOTH OUT THE POTTY....HA HA...HA
fuckinghell....i need to buy up b and q before i start
God the British and the Germans can make anything that's easy difficult. buy yourself a very nice expensive four inch brush and learn to cut your windows in without taping. I used to cut in French Windows all day long with a 4 inch brush.
Cause after so manu years you are still amateur mate :D masking tape makes perfect line and the difference is dramatic, so please
@@dimitarpenchev1493 nonsense. If you’re good your line is steady.
@@Dbb27 nothing compares with the masking tape lines, I've been painting for nearly 20 years. Hand painting is good but proper cut gives much fresher finish to old window frames
@@dimitarpenchev1493 I will defer to your expertise as I’ve not had to paint mullions before. What do you use? Frog tape or regular? I have found on straight trim I can do as well as taping off. But this may be the time to try something else.
@@Dbb27 go for yellow frog tape or yellow tessa. Both are very good. Orange frog tape is also very good if you are planning to keep the masking tape on exterior for long
Yet another how not to do it.
No shit, terrible job of painting that window.
So what you would you suggest? I'd like to know as I have... let me count... 27 windows to do. A whole lotta work, not looking forward to it.
John O'Neill I would just hire someone to replace the window lol
i would sue you for a window like this.
Why?
I’d sue you for thinking you could get any better without buying a whole knew window
Screw this, I'm getting uPVC double glazing instead!
😃😂😃😂😃😂😃😂😃😂😃😂
uPVC also has limited life. It comes down to money. If you have money to burn, get aluminium windows. Those have limited life also.
Moist finger tip by licking it, make sure you drink a lot of water before you get dehydarated.lol
the end result doesn't look very good, sorry...
If you have a bad old paint on the window you might get rid of all of it and after sanding it it will look beautiful...now you see the old pain chipped under the fresh painting job...it's a NO for me!
I thought you couldnt paint over putty right away
gyenge a csako nem is javitott semmit ilyet adni reklamnak
I will try to do it with Woodglut plans.
Yeah maybe painting ain’t for you buddy might wanna let the big boys do it 🤣 that’s just god awful
Well, let's see you doing it then? Of course.. you have no videos,.
🦅.../. V DARK AND LIGHT GREEN. YAKAY 7
Just ridiculous!
for this job you'll need a knife, a knife, a knife, a brush, a brush, a brush and a knife
Timeline 4.09 Cracks, half removed and painted over paint.... What a mess! Need to get a woman in next time.
this is not professional work
@@thepaperwheel5202 i truly want to know also... i dont see how this is horrible... any better of a job and any more time required to satisfy these snobs, you would be better off ripping the wondow put and buying a new one
The irony in the two comments telling you, you don't know what you're talking about. When 1. ,you're right and 2. neither one of them has a fucking clue what a true professionally painted window should look like.
They remind me of customers who have an opinion on every little thing you do but for some reason can't do the work themselves.
Not a single comment about how prople would do the job better. Just comments on how terrible it is. Why are these people even watching a how to video if they already know the best way to restore a window
@@thepaperwheel5202 time is money that video is only good for homeowners project
Wish there was an after picture. Good job anyways
😂
Why paint the metal details? hinges? urgh
Moist fingertip
Wow. That's a how not to video. Ever hear of taking out the window? And that putty in a tube? AND you need to paint onto the glass to seal the putty. And it's not even called putty! Holy smokes
It's beautiful work. Just because you don't have his skill or experience, you need to demean him?
Take the windows out? 😂 He's a decorator. Time is money.
He put the tape on 1 mm away from the glaze to seal the window. I'm not removing and replacing 24 sashes to repaint, sorry.
@@FrankSax77 You talk shite. The windows were fine.
That's a shit work.
Yeah nah that is lousy job, sorry bro
