People, you need to protect the floors and other surfaces. Not to mention cleaning the vent.

That what you do is exactly the right way to do it.. I've been a house Carpenter for close to 40 years doing mostly maintenance and repairs. Oil primer first.

Good video. Can you spray oil base primer on old siding?

Yes always best to do this, I would lie the bag flat just in case.

Thanks for being thorough

Would've been more helpful if you showed how it actually works. How big the gap was and how to put it in and then also how to caulk it.

I was thinking of this. I fell off a ladder at one story some years back. Now I'm going up about 20 feet and I don't want the legs to move. I try and put a good sizzed stone in back. But I like the idea of a sand bag on the bottom rung.

WTF!!!

You remove it first and wash it to remove any dirt and dust particles. That way the paint will look smooth.

Backer rod was invented because even a 40 year old veteran contractor is not perfect ☝☝☝

Can you pls give the primer and paint details

Also I have seen people who had to keep painting for days and they wrap the roller in the plastic sleeves and continue the next day-can that be done with oil base primer? I am 71 and have to repaint my whole interior for the first time alone. Would I be better off hiring a professional painter and could you give a ball park figure as to what I would expect for approximately 973 square feet? Would greatly appreciate it👍😊👍

Do you have a video on cleaning rollers?

THANK YOU I have been a professional caulker for over 40 years. I get so tired of all of the miss-information on caulking on RUclips. Stupid things like “try to force as much sealant into the gap as you can” You are one of the few that gets it right. Just a couple of things to add. While you are right the home centers will generally have 3 sizes of backer rod, it is actually made in many sizes from 1/4” to 4”. As a general rule of thumb the backer rod should be installed not less than 1/4” deep nor more than 1/2”. And within these limits it should be approximately 1/2 as deep as the gap is wide. This will give the sealant the best chance for a long life. Again thank you for putting out the correct information.

What is the comb type thing you use to pull out the paint/thinner?

That's a good idea to prime first,then caulk. Do you necessarily need oil base primer,what if the customer prefer 100 % acrylic instead?

i will just buy new brush!

Would mineral spirits work or is that only for stains?

Will acetone give you the same results as paint thinner?

Thank you. Your video is very helpful!

Excelent explain buddy ... is not do the job , is do it professional

Thank you for the advice. I’ve been wondering what I needed to fill in the gap between the vinyl siding and my screened porch, now I have an answer.

These are the things that happen to me. You just calmly worked through the top of the paint can popping off. Thanks for the tips.

With the amount of thinners wasted, you could buy a new 🖌️

so you need about as much material as a new brush costs if not more lol

Did you wet the brush with water first? Thanks for sharing.

Funny what a bit of music can do. Makes watching something as monotonous and torturous as cleaning your brushes a fairly pleasant experience haha

Kilz works great for primer. Not sure how much that SW costs?

Thanks for the great advice!

If you don't have one of those crumpled up piece of tape works well for a backing.

Easy as depends if blending with flat plaster. Come on man

Mix 5 min or 20 quick set! Two coats of that, then two skim coats of regular plasterer and boom, sand with a light to see imperfections with a sanding sponge!

Would any of the nay sayers who down voted this video explain why? 🤔

I just use some pva mixed with water does the job

Wipe on some 90 minute quick set when your Pre-filling cracks and gaps, sand a few blisters- done. No fuckin around.

I used hot water with washing up liquid soap and the results are identical. My grandmother is happy that I follow her instructions. Regards from Cabrera. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing! Thank You! Bless Your heart and gold hands! This is quality work!

I appreciate your advice. I will hire You to pint my house. I just did scraped and put oil based primer on my fascia board and south wall of the house that was in terrible condition after about 10 years since last painting with latex primer and paint by SherwinWilliams paint - all peeled, cracked and faded. Thanks!

Great tutorial, thank you. What do you or can you do with the dirty thinner?

Great video. Should have way more views :) What are people doing to their poor brushes?

I knocked the spray paint thing off. Lol

Wish you showed how you installed it and see the finish product. Thanks

Great video! This will work on gaps for mice?

Great video. Thank you Also love the music. Who is it and the name of the song? Thank you so much

Thank you. Now I understand. 👍

Thanks for great tips 👍
