[@romandesalva1231]

Also there's a light uncovered while painting the ceiling

[@OriginalBlueFrankie]

The technique shown is perhaps the worst I've ever seen.

[@chanthana7694]

After this, I lost the motivation to paint my ceiling.

[@SpaceNinja321]

I was thinking the same thing. After half of this “advice”, they would need to hire a professional to correct the mess!

[@bradsmith1189]

damn it will take a week and a half to do your ceiling with all these rules. Yall do know that with the price of painters tape it will cost ya $50 to tape a room.. Unbelivable.

Cornerses?????? 1st time hearing that one in English

[@tonyhill2318]

This video should be called 'how to turn a 1 hour job into a 4 hour job'. Also, most of it is wrong. Find another video to learn from.

[@mikemehenni]

first time hearing celing paint and wall paint? this must be a uk think in usa ceiling paint is same as wall paint! Ehy do you not use spray machines?

[@DevoPLO]

You're %100 wrong there has always been paint for ceilings in North America

[@thomasmanders255]

Don't ever tape the wall

[@Anthony-pw8hj]

Just don’t tape at all

[@villa_fan8882]

I agree, however, I am interested to hear your reasoning for not using tape? Is it because, it will mark the wall?

[@redlines3377]

That roller looks completely ridiculous! You have to do a minimum of four coats, even with good ceiling paint....lolz.
I just did it, perhaps a $20 roller would do the trick on the first try. Haha

[@bradsmith1189]

yeah that roller will fall apart after the first paint coat ..i can almost see it now, looking like the tread coming off an 18 wheelers tire on a hot desert hiway.

[@thomasmanders255]

Did you see his brush?😂

[@b.larson3151]

The man "painting" at the end of the video isn't even painting. He dips his roller in the bucket and it comes out without paint. Then he's rolling the moulding with a dry roller. Looks like they just set things up for a video shoot or "How to pretend to paint" demo.

[@Anne_Onymous]

They're just random generic clips just to play in the background to the audio. You're supposed to listen.

[@phild9358]

I thought in Australia you have to get an electrician to undo wiring your comments are an accident waiting to happen DEATH BY ELECTRICUTION
AND POOR PAINTING TECHNIQUES

[@SurgeWorld]

Wtf!

[@phill58]

Not professional at all 😂
