      Thanking the Lord above for another beautiful/Blessed day in the greatest Nation on Earth, and remembering all the great Americans who worked their butts off or sacrificed their lives to make/keep our country free! Grilling Rib Eyes/baked taters/veggies on the Traeger, and enjoying a 'few' domestic lite brews with my beautiful wife of 42 years! Thank you Chris, for all the great videos that have helped me do my first airless project,(interior cinder block wall/plaster ceiling basement/stairwell; 3,500+ sq ft). May the good Lord Bless you and yours with happiness and good health on this 244th American Birthday!!

      What is your take on using aluminum foil instead of paper and tape in/on some 'special' areas? Examples: the tab on the power meter or doorknobs. I've used foil on plumbing pipe stub outs, knobs & small items that need cover & are in tight areas. The foil quickly covers an object tightly to allow full (as possible) paint coverage around/behind the object. Inexpensive foil product is available. I am not a painter per se, but have been remodeling residential forty plus years. I use the foil to cover when texturing & times when I do have to paint also.

  • @sanctusverus5121
    @sanctusverus5121 Před 3 lety

    I used to hold the masking tape in my mouth to until I noticed my bite marks leave little dips and valleys along the edge of the tape, so it would'nt be as a clear straight line anymore. Then I held it just with lips, but no pressure with teeth, but feel self conscious about ppl looking and wondering "is that painter chewing on tape?" I thinks a brilliant idea for those with small wrists or little hands to hold it on the wrist like a bracelet. I bought the super gaff from your store, which looks really cool and works just as good. I was surprised you didn't use it on a masking video, as I seen you wear the super gaff in other videos. I appreciate your videos, and my dad and I refer to your videos for training.

    @freddygill3425 Před 3 lety

    What a professional you are. So efficient! Wish you were my neighbor. Thank you. Last time I painted my stucco house here in Ocoee, Fl. I duct taped a tile trowel to the center of a 2 ft. by 4 ft. 1/4 inch (very thin) piece of plywood as a spray shield for my windows. It was light, well balanced and easy to move into place. worked super good, However, I did not use a gun extension like you do, so I imagine it wouldn't work as good for you. cheers!

Focusing only outside jobs. Tritech, high pressure washer. Nice to see the way your doing the things done. I am already exicted to test some of your tips at my projects. Its funny because I came to similarly same solutions as you, but with `homemade` methods. They dont have such accessories here in the shops in Norway. Would love to show you my work and exchange experiences. Thumbs up!
