Thanks for taking of this Veteran. I am a Vet and that’s awesome for the support.👏🏽
🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
I just finished painting my entire house! It's a tiny place but the preparation took so long (sanding scraping, repairing rotted wood and termite damage, masking, etc.), it also was my first time using an airless sprayer. The Idaho painter videos helped me immensely. This guys gives excellent tips that will save you time and money. You can tell he's very experienced and runs an efficient business that translates to saving dollars and time for us that are learning. Thanks!!
Me too...just started the power washing
I really love watching Chris . I literally didn’t know anything about painting. 5 years I went on RUclips to learn something new. I was always a blue collar job person. I watched and watched . Trail and errors but those are also the best learners. I opened my company 5 years ago from watching you from the business aspect to the actual skill . Now I have over 3k clients and growing . I’ve painted so many homes and businesses. All my clients love my work . I always tell the story of me watching Chris . Learning his tactics and just added my personal flavor to make it more comfortable for me. At the end everything supposed to look the same. Thanks so much Chris for the evening 😃.
3000 clients!?!
@@oregonsdank yeah haha, imagine that. So in 5 years, he learned a trade, opened a business, and has 3000 clients. That's 1.65 painted houses a day. Yeah that's believable
@@michaelthomas4346, I don't think he said painted 3k client's homes. Those could and probably interior jobs, paint awning, shakes, or smaller jobs. Respect to him for learning a skill and being self-employed and successful.
@@richardwilliams6256 still. That’s 1.65 jobs per day provided each client is a job. Whether it’s an awning or a deck or a door. Weekends included, no vacation days. 365x5 and divide 3000 by that number.
Chris you’re amazing man!! Thank you so much for the time you take to make these videos! You have helped so many people including myself and I’m now 7 months into my business and it’s growing rapidly bc of the knowledge that you put on here! I apply everything you teach and it’s paying off man! Thank you so much brother!
Awesome! The video I needed! I bought my sprayer, picked my paint, and am planning to paint my single story house next weekend!!
Don’t forget a masker!😀
Thanks Chris! 🙏 You’re a paint guru, expert, and the definition of a professional. A true pros pro. You have taught me so much about painting. Thanks for all you do.
a big thank you to Mr Dunn for his service !
This one was very relaxing to watch. Almost like listening to Bob Ross. Great job. Very commendable to paint that vets home
You are great to help a old man out.Bravo bro.
Awesome work!!!
Well done Chris
Bad ass scrapper and knife
Hey Chris, awesome channel, I've learned a ton by watching your How To Videos. Question...I'm about to repaint my 10 year old house. When brushing and rolling the facia and soffits with exterior satin, should I use 1 coat or 2? Thanks Again!
Great cause Great Effort !!! Chris my mum wants her hammer back when you're done with it. ...Love ya brother, luv ur channel.
So, you mentioned wax bleed. Never heard of that before. My wife and I just decided to break into the business ourselves. I'm learning a LOT watching your videos.....EVERY SINGLE DAY. When I hit my first real job (painting for a friend right now) I don't wanna walk on site and have the homeowner see "newbie" written all over me. 😆 So, there seems to be more that I don't know than I do know....and finding out more unknowns every day. Almost feels like I need to "go back to school" before I ever paint for my first real customer. Grateful for the tips....nervous about screwing up.
I am watching this video, and others like it, because every time I hire someone to work on my house, I have to go in behind them and fix things they messed up or failed to do. So from now on, I do everything myself. It takes the same amount of time for me to do the entire job right the first time doing it alone, as it does to figure out everyone else's screw-ups, and fix them. Thank you for making this possible.
Great workout!
I have a trick that I use when removing lights to make sure that I wire them up correctly when re-installing, and that is, using different color wire nuts. I use blue, yellow, and orange, and I put the corresponding color on the wire attached to the light as well, making it dummy proof. It has saved me a lot of time wiring and re-wiring. Try it and see if it works for you too.
I just got a paint eater and ot changed ny life. Takes off 3 olf coats of paint on our rough sawn facia like nothing.
I like the tip opening the garage door before it completely dry
I love the “paint lazy” mindset. I’ve always attributed my best ideas to my laziness.
You aren't on Rumble or Odysee?
Industry standard for NOT painting the side of the trim the trim color is called California cut. Now I have heard the term for the other. Frenching.
I dont know if you still respond to older videos, but I bought a Wagoner paint eater on your recommendation, but I am having trouble using it. It seems to eat my wood and make swirls in my wood. Would LOVE for you to do a in depth video on how to hold it for best results, how to not get swirls in wood etc. Love your videos !!
Great job! Your narrating is outstanding and makes the clip interesting. Thank you.
My neighbor growing up would paint one side every other year I think it was. He would space it out instead of painting it all at once. It was a two story and it was a reddish color with white trim. Idk if other ppl do that or was just something he did 🤣
Great videos. If you were going to “French trim” the window and door trims, would you still tape the windows so that the body paint covers the trim sides? Or would you tape off the sides of trim to match the siding profile where it abuts the trim? Thanks!
Yes, absolutely
This guy is so likeable - respect!
Thanks
Hi, what paint were you using on this job ? I was intrigue by the coverage from such a dark color to a much lighter color, thanks.

Thats awesome man great to see people helping veterans 👍

So painters care paid for this. Were you paid for this or did you volunteer your time?
So this might be a dumb question but where do you get your cardboard from??

What type of paint to use for vinyl siding?
I am 72 and painting my parents house for the 2nd time in 18 years and I am jealous of your spray painting and wish that is what I was doing on this house!!! The amount of time you save is just tremendous as well as the wear and tear on your body!!! This truly is the only way to go!!! Many years ago I dated a young man who was a spray painter and he painted my Mothers living room, with nothing down on the carpeting, at all! My mother threatened to kill him if he got any paint or overspray on the floor and he told her not to worry, by the time it hit the floor, it would be dry and a vacuum could suck it up. He was right! He had been painting for a number of years and knew what he was doing, but it sure scared us!
I was taught by my mother that every time I paint there must always be 1-2 coats of primer all over everything. You don't seem to do that, so is it really necessary? Also, my parents home is 70 years old and it has some exterior flaking or chipping on the south side of the house due to excessive sun and heat. I am wondering if I am overdoing the sanding and prepping part of this job. My Mom was a perfectionist and I feel like I may be wasting time that is not necessary and wish you could address, when prepping is needed and when you are overdoing it! Thus far I have only seen you use caulk from a tube for prepping but I have a few holes from nails and screws and a couple breaks or dents and I sure wish you would address fixing those issues before priming and paint as well. Although I have done household painting for myself for many years, we need to be reminded or at least I do!
How close do you usually keep your spray tip from the painted surface? Thank you for any feedback?
One foot
Was reading the new “titan accessories” magazine volume 220. Just saw that they have a product called “pump shield” the description says “cover your sprayer to prevent paint overspray from sticking to it, keeps sprayer looking like new” on the last page, looks legit
When you are a real painter, you don't have the time to worry about paint getting on the rig.
a garbage bag works well
Always liked PPG paints over other brands....just to note never liked Sherwin Williams...
Chris, I know you’re up there in the north, but do you ever encounter stucco? I’m in So. Cal. and my home is about 2/3rds stucco. Should I paint it? Reading blogs and int back and forth on the topic…. Thanks if you can answer…
I always tell my guys the 4 foot ladder is the most dangerous ladder on the truck. Its like you said, you tend to be over confident with it and climb up to high, or set it on uneven ground. Its sure nice to hear someone else say it. Also, I'm in Tucson AZ we have PPG stores down here. I would choose to use Dunn Edwards over PPG just because I'm more familiar with the products they have not that PPG is bad paint its pretty much the same with all paint manufacturers you have your high end paints with 25 year plus warranties, and then you have your discounted production paints that in all honesty shouldn't exist. unfortunately PPG has one of those products and under direction from my boss at the company I was working for at the time I repainted a high end retirement community with it and I am completely ashamed of what that place looks like today. That paint didn't hold up at all!!
hello! I first sand, then remove the dust, then I make an antiseptic for wood, and 2 layers of oil or paint, I apply with a brush! both a log and a board! I in Russia earn for 1 square meter of turnkey work, my consumables and tools, the customer buys only paint and sealant and antiseptic! his material and I take $ 10 per square for the whole complex. How much does this work cost you? I pay the workers $ 7 for work per 1 square meter !!! I will be grateful if you answer !!!
World War II veteran and 95 years old. A lot of history to tell us . Amazing!
Best tip my dad gave me when caulking was use your pointer finger as a guide when your caulking over the tip one motion..
Imagine rolling the whole house... paint sprayer = life saver
Yep
Hey Chris, great video as usual. I was just curious what you are using on your belt to hold your tape in this video. Looks cool, I'd like to get one. Thanks man!
That is a huge crabgrass to the left of the screen in the beginning there!
LOL
Please thank Mr Jack for his service he done for this country
Great job my brother from a 30 year professional painter.
You do good work.
Work as unto the Lord not man.
Things always work out!!
Blessings

I love your videos I've painted a lot of boats over 30 years and house but I've never used airless sprayer
this guy is great😊
So there won't be a different sheen or color/look on the spots that you used peel bond vs the spots that didn't need it??
Magnificent charitable project! Thank you for your detailed video log, including invaluable advice. Excellent end result. Bravo!
Glad it was helpful!
How many coats do you usually do interior and exterior?

@@Idahopainter Thanks
What is the best paint for stuccoed house.
Aura Flat
About how much is a good price to charge for that size house?
I am a single mom, recently widowed. I have a vet neighbor who is a widower and struggling with health issues. How would I find out if there is a program to help me do this for my neighbor? My 3 son's and I want to help this wonderful neighbor who has been one of the few to help us!
Where are you located ?
On your price that you mentioned on both houses, How much materials do you spend paint and Accessories, and as a Veteran thank you for helping that is really awesome he is the reason you can do what your doing, BIG THANKS
The Vets house material was provided by PPG
OVERSPRAY IN THE FASCIA BOARD.
Thank you for inspiring me to start my own painting business. Your tips and knowledge has been instrumental!
You are so welcome!
bread bags work wonderfully on ladder ends...
Very entertaining and informative!!
Hello, plastic paint or acrilic? Thanks

What to do with lower boards that are a little swollen? Paint heavy under lip? Scrape?
Back brush
Wow this brought tears to my eyes when Jack cane outside. Beautiful!
Hes an amazing guy
Great video, Chris, I've been using PPG Timeless for some time now, it by far one of my top paints I work with, I typically have to get it at the Home Depot since it closer to my location but PPG paint store does carry it but may be a good drive since there usually only one store per town, and If your a contractor you do get a better price point at the HD store they usually have a PPG paint representative. Thanks again always enjoy watching another pro in the paint world.
Pph is garbage

😀
@@Idahopainter keep it going Chris 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great tips, thank you.
What was the color of the door
Enjoyed the comments that explained your process and past experiences
Glad you enjoyed it!
You always go that extra mile! You just made me want to go harder! Thank you for the motivation🙏🏻💯 it’s about the dream and the hustle thanks once again
🙌
You got to get in and out
What made you want to start a painting business
Good videos
So you only sand the chipping paint or the whole house
Only chipped paint
@@Idahopainter thank you 😊
ao
Great job as usual !!
Thanks again!
Why do you keep 2 tu es of caulking on your back pockets? Thats gotta be terrible and it doesnt really make sense
So he doesn't have to go look for caulking when he runs out.
Do you ever wonder if everyone on your crew had your ability and know how?
Great job but I could not get over the too much talking… try to speed up the showing of the work and try to montage the advices
Thanks a lot Chris for doing this. I am just curious as what kind of caulking do you use for lining the doors and windows ?
He's a big fan of Tower caulk but that's impossible to find. I like Shermax.
👎🏽 He is priming/painting ( he falls short by stopping heavy coat....) and talks about gutter …. Instead of telling us what and why he is doing what he deems necessary he… basically you learn nothing from this video except him doing free bee for war veteran and how community conscious he is so don’t let him eat your time and make $$
But you continue to watch my videos and chat on them which directly supports me. Thanks for helping promote us for FREE
I disagree, he's giving so many tips as he's prepping.
