I went down a rabbit hole and watched 20 of your videos. I feel equipped to tackle my painting job now. I really appreciate the excellent instructions. Great job
Glad to hear it James
I love Frog Tape. I primarily use the green FT but also use yellow FT and they both serve a purpose and are worth every penny.
I agree
For new trim I would recommend paper drywall tape tucked under the trim it Aborbes everything that drops down and you can come back with a razer and take it out works out really good
@rvrsiid that's the point. Sense it doesn't have adhesive you can slide it underneath. It doesn't move if you use like 5 foot strips. You also don't have to to worry about pealing up the finish on the floor. Just try it and see how it works then get back to me. If it doesn't work out for you then keep doing it the way you do it
@rvrsiid drywall tape is pretty wide so half is tucked under the other half is exposed.
Good point, I’ll try thx
Thanks for sharing Ben
@Andre Reznikov absolutely hope it helps
That's how we do it my man I love paint prep very satisfying
Thanks Daniel
Chris I’ve found using swifter pads for cleaning the dust off baseboards works really good it attracts the dust off the baseboard.
Good tip Dave
Friendly Tip! Great tips! Chris you mentioned that the ceiling, walls and trim are going the same color. Best tool for this job cutting in would be the Richard 2 1/2 Gooseneck paint brush extension. No need to get down on your knees. Also a used Gooseneck is excellent to dust many areas, avoiding having to go up on a ladder and getting on your knees. The Gooseneck guy! 🧐😌
Not for me in this situation
Thank you! Man i always learn great tips from your vids and improve my efficiency! Do u have a video on quickest way to prepare a roughly painted surface to spray it to be a smooth surface? Reason I ask is since I’ve watched your videos I’ve been spraying my trim and rolling my walls and love how my trim is so smooth! Now I want to go back and “repair” all my roughly painted surfaces. One video u showed to use a sanding sponge but has to be wet. Maybe u have more tips. I just love the smooth surfaces and can’t go back from that! Want to redo my laundry room project
I do. You will have to search for it
If you tape enough you actually get quite fast at it for those that don't enjoy it. The benefit of proper prep is that it arguably takes just as long as NOT preping in the end because you have to be so careful at times and typically it's impossible for most that aren't Rocksteady like the Idaho painter with there hands. The job turns out soooo much better and the time it took doesn't amount to a lot compared to the years it's going to be looked at, plus it makes it easier and more fun to paint and recoat. Hand trimming trick areas twice can be a real pain, if you tape/ prep properly once, the painting goes so much more efficiently you save time in a lot of cases.
Thank you TIP
Practice
I doubted till I seen that crack str8 pro all day I been painting 20 years once I saw that I knew u were a pro
Thanks
Good to show these tips which you mentioin quite often but how about tips on touching up patches on walls without them showing etc
Have a video on that
Hey Chris, even better than using your blade is a duster brush - great way to quickly press that tape and no potential damage to the floor or beading, the tape's fully compressed to the surface too.
But yes I agree with trimming the corners using the decorators blade.
Thanks for the tip Rich
Use the bristles or handle?
@@TheFifapro44 bristles. I dust out the line, apply the tape then press it in place with the brush - you can get very quick using that method. The bristles enable an even pressure across the entire surface of the tape, especially when close the trim which is the most important line.
@@mooganoid Ty I'll try next time I'm painting trim 🙏
Hihi nice tip, awesome channel!
What would you do when you're painting a whole house to prevent a drip of paint that always falls on the tape and gets sucked underneath it? Is there any way to stop this phenomenon?
It happen. Use a 2 edge knife and clean
Hello, tell me do you have any tips to hide baseboards on tiles to work with airless (a video would be welcome) thanks
I do
Is it best to put the drop clothes under the paper or on top the paper?
Under
Can you help me understand why you double tape? Wouldn't putting the yellow tape on the masker and then make 1 pass be better?
Or is there a reason to use 2 layers of tape?
Thanks
More precise with just a roll in your hand
So how long can you keep the yellow tape on a day...... a week.!
21 days
I’m in the middle of painting my room right now. This is definitely my least favorite part of it.
Sorry to hear
Especially if you can get the tape under the trim and it's cheaper
Yep
Good 👍🌹
Thanks
I use a 24mm tape on edges and then I go over that with a 300mm wide paper and 50mm tape
Nice
If you hold the roll against what you're taping it's much easier
OK
Tip take the tape caulk the line take more tape roll the cut 5 way take your arm wiggle it tuck it underneath my trim.. tape the cabinets.. paint your hand double dip and leave without finishing. Subscribe for more stuff and things.
Nice
Paper over drop, imagine spraying or spilling anything!
Yep
Tip to save money and time ,put yellow tape on masker and just mask once with nine inch paper.
Thanks for sharing James
If you have to use delicate tape to not pull off a floor finish, then the floor guys did a poor job refinishing the wood floors
Not completely true
To much of the prepping and waste of time tape n paper ! much quicker to use paint trim guard for cut baseboard, also I’d use Folding Padded Drop instead of drop cloth IMHO
OK
what a waste of time and money, get a 3 inch brush, cut cleanly, and wipe off any drips or splatter if your that messy. its fresh latex paint it comes off almost any flooring with ease i could cut 2 of those rooms before you mask one.
OK
put your money where your mouth is, lets see a race
