I recently bought a home. 1st person in my family in generations to own a home. I didn't have people who have "done it before".
I found this page and I've watched just about every video on here. Needless to say, after a few hard lessons, patience, and TLC; I now have level 5 everything. I started with popcorn ceilings on vaulted ceilings too.
You are the man sir! I appreciate you.
I will go and check out the foundation as well. Take care.
That is awesome! Thanks
God Bless you sir for your service in protecting our country! Thank you Gary Sinese for your help and taking care of our Vets~!!!!! Great information sir.
I've used rattle can clear lacquer to seal paper tears. Three coats and it's dry within an hour. Because it's so thin, the texture of the paper is still there, so the mud has something to bite into. No failures so far.
I use a fresh whizy to give a orange peel texture to the coating .
Thanks, I've never thought of that, good idea.
@@davidjavids2431 what is "fresh whizzy"?
One trick I've used before on paper-exposed areas no larger than about 2sqft surface area is misting the brown paper with water from a spray bottle, then going over with the first coat of joint compound. The water dries out through all the layers and INTO the joint compound creating more of a bond.
Thx so much for being willing to serve our country! It takes a real HERO! Thank YOU!
Pride in workmanship! Wish all drywall contractors had your work ethic . 👍God bless you and your family.
Well said! ♥️👊
Awesome video! Thank you for your service. Framer, turned mud and taper when I switched companies. I’m a “carpenter” for a comercial contractor. We modernize elevators, so sometimes we have to patch drywall holes in lobbies, as well as hanging drywall in machine rooms, tape, mud, paint the whole 9 yards. I’ve been learning so much, and I deal with these tears all day. In a machine room, it doesn’t matter so much, but our patches in a lobbie areas have to be pristine. Thank you, now I have another technique in my arsenal.
Thank you for posted this, you saved me from a huge headache… this video literally popped up in my suggestions right before I was about mud over some tears I made in my bathroom while removing the popcorn ceiling. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you, as a do it yourself homeowner I have struggled with this for years lol. Never again thanks to you.
Thanks for this. Like your customer, I put nicks all over my ceiling while removing the popcorn. I was going to just mud over so I'm glad I check your videos before doing anything.
Thank you so much I'm actually in the middle of a huge project and your do giving me such confidence. Leave it to a veteran to Have a Heart Like Yours. Happy belated Veterans Day and may the good Lord bless you for all you did for us❤🤍💙
Thank you for sharing your wisdom sir. You have been very helpful and spared me much grief. This video has been particularly helpful as it is a problem I am presently facing. 🇨🇦
I use that PRO 999 on all my rent house drywall repairs...... it has never failed me! Great video!!
It’s great stuff
@jimmy crackcorn and I don’t care. Lol it was an open canvas. Great idea✨
Going to test it
Good video, I am a painter at a MLB stadium and I deal with drywall damage everyday. I use Gardz on all my drywall patches. The most important tool I own is a heat gun. I force dry the Gardz, then force dry 5, 20 or 40 minute mud, a skim of topping, repaint and on to the next patch. My crew prides themselves on undetectable patching. Our biggest compliment is when fans ask "what do you do here all year?, we don't see anything that needs painting", if they only knew....
I use Gardz even when I don't really need it especially over a skim coat because I don't trust the primer alone. I use Gardz followed by a primer(redundant I know). It's overkill but makes for a nice hard surface. This is in a house, of course if it was a large stadium it would not be cost effective. I am finding out the hard way why my dad put wallpaper EVERYWHERE. To cover up nail pops. It's a 1950's house and I used about 400 screws at this point next to nail pops. Tedious as hell tapping the old nails in.
@@pdrey100 I use Gardz as a sealer over patches sometimes but we usually use the paint as a primer and finish. Its not the best approach but its the approach that works. If it is a large patch, say anywhere from 4 to 10 square feet then we would apply a coat of PVA or a universal primer. But the small patches just get a coat of paint. We might not get back to an area the same day, so at least the patch has paint on it rather than a coat of primer. We do a lot of touch ups as the time frame doesn`t allow us to follow truly professional standards. Stadiums leak, thousands of fans and staff on site the Stadium takes a beating. Quantity over quality is the norm....
@@xbrizzcakez I wonder if they kick or punch the walls if the home team loses......job security.
@@pdrey100 that would be the players,lol
@@xbrizzcakez The fans too. I remember the Mets had a closer(John Franco) that you could have a 10 run lead in the final inning and he would give up 9 runs. It was nerve wracking, but I never punched the walls as most of them were concrete anyway.
Thanks for the pro tips. Anyone ever only learn half the job to work for someone else but has the mental ability as most do to do it correct and well will benefit from your help as I have.
Thank you for your service! My son is in the Air Force and my dad is retired AF. I took off wallpaper for my parents the other day, in both their bathrooms. It was HORRIBLE! I did not have a clue what I was doing and did not know why the wall was brown. I just let it dry and sanded and then painted over it. I hope it holds up! It was probably the hardest thing I have ever done…..wish I’d seen this video first, LOL!
I don't have any drywall repairs currently but i do enjoy watching your videos. They're always infomrnative, and will be useful later down the line once I buy my own house. Thank you for your service and invaluable advice
Thank you. Guy
Very helpful video! We recently just pulled bead board down in through our house that the original owners had for char rail. And the glue they used tore the paper all over the place. Luckily we did a great great taking down popcorn and wallpaper, so no fixes there. But gonna have our plates full with rest of the walls. Thank you for you very education video and your professionalism, that his hard to come by now days. I just wish you were in Texas...
Thank you!!! Our older home has wallpaper in every room. I did it the only way I could before with layers and layers upon fight after fight with compound. We are now onto the kids' rooms and the same thing is happening. I was terrified I would be stuck with the same exhausting process. I am so glad I found your video!!
I’m working on a project and trying to learn from your channel. My dad is very handy with home projects and I was telling him about your channel. I’m not sure he was completely convinced, but I’ll tell him Gary vouched for you 😆- Gary Sinise is very respected in our family! 🇺🇸 Cheers!
I'd like to help out veterens to do one thing...That is to encourage anyone looking to sign up for any military, to take a hard look at historic facts and what you are actually fighting for. This would help all people.
Great videos.
The Roman is great, it provides a light residual tack which adds friction and helps with top coat coverage. The gardz is a better choice for moisture locations(we’ve done extensive testing), but it’s smell is overwhelming in small spaces.
Thanks for the video!
God bless you for your service sir. My dad was an Air Force mechanic that worked on planes and of course the jeeps also
We support the Gary Sinise Foundation. Thank you for your service Kilted Guy! I've been bitten by the the torn paper monster many times. Used Kilz, PVA primer and concrete bonding agent in the past, but I'll try your recommendations.
I always used odorless kilz and never had an issue.
Great video.
Sir, you are always right on. The first thing I did before I learned of your Gardz, I used Kills to cover torn paper spots that occur for removing popcorn and wallpaper. Your Gardz is a perfect sealer for prepping ragged and torn paper on the smooth finish paper surface of drywall. Seal before muddying is an essential necessity before applying the mud. Gary Kaasa
thank you very much! i was doing work on our new nursery and the old paint started peeling off in sheets and when i tore off all of the old paint on all 4 walls, it pretty much tore off drywall paper so all 4 walls had exposed brown paper with fuzzies and layers everywhere. I planned on sanding all 4 walls back down and im glad I found this video before i threw a skim coat on bare paper.
i will now go out and get the proper sealing product for this appropriate prep work for a full skim coat on all 4 walls and be able to feel better about proper adhesion of the new primer and paint.
Thank you for your videos I'm new at dry wall and your wealth of knowledge has taught me alot and gave me an advantage in my business.
First thank you for your service🇺🇸
Second thank you for the info. Helping my daughter with house renovations while fiance is deployed. Thank you again!
Thanks, glad I could help you out 😎. And thanks for subscribing!
Great advice
After 25 plus years in the industry, I was amazed how many finishers just mud over torn paper.
Even on 100% torn drywall from vynl removal.
We got to the point where we would not take on projects where the finisher prepped those walls.
Much appreciate that your not one of those bad drywallers
Thanks. And, thanks so much for commenting and for subscribing. With your help we can blast past 100,000 subscribers and more! Maybe I can help many more.
I'm so glad I watched this, because I got willed my mom's house and there are a lot of areas of damaged drywall. Thank you for your service!
Just retired and bought a house, your videos give me confidence to start my own repairs #fellowAFcomrade#retired#
Glad to hear that, and thank you for your service. 😎🇺🇸
Thank you, this is a great and useful video I will use in the future. Blessings to you and your loved ones!
This is great info - thank you sir!
I have found in a pinch when you do not have a sealer on hand for the paper repair you can also use thinned out wood or craft glue to seal before making the repair.
.
As a professional, for me, regular or odorless oil primer and even BIN primer has worked out perfectly. No problems what so ever. For the fumes, I use respirator and good ventilation. No explosions luckily 🤣
Great video as always, Guy!
I’ve used Zinsser Cover-Stain or BE1-2-3 in a rattle can in a pinch for torn drywall paper. I have a can of Gardz I’m gonna use for some torn paper I had during popcorn ceiling removal.
For years (really decades) I have used a similar method with perfect results but I use KILZ Primer over the exposed paper instead of Pro-999. Seals the area up great. Then mud to fill in the area, feathering as needed.
I am trying to repair a badly damaged moisture wall from Hurricane Ida cat4.to the front wall of my home. The wall rapidly developed into Mold spots all over it 1-1/2 days after storm .....destroying the Gypsum paper...some of it black and mildew spots all over the brown gypsum paper. I decided to pull that awful paper off because it is 50 yrs old and lokked bad even after treating it with Hydrogen Peroxide and Concrobium. No more mold in the wall but it still looks very dirty. with left over spotting. Am i doing the right thing by pulling it off since it is crumbled and parts of sheetrock in a crumble state? The paper did not look good to salvage since it is 50 yrs old. And it could be an additional health hazard with more storms rolling in every season. After the water remediation team said there was no more mold , i am starting the repairs to the wall. Is it okay to use Kiltz to the sheetrock to discourage the Mold from seepting through? One person said they used Kiltz as the primer before mudding and liked it. Also to conclude, i cannot pull the sheet rock out to put new shtrock because it is cemented to the brick of the house and it would cause structural damage to brick of house. So i am doing my best to repair it. Thanks for any encouragement.
How many times should you coat it?
Great video Guy. I wanted to mention another product, most people already have. If you have some small areas, where you've gouged or over sanded you can use a PVA sealer, also known as carpenters glue. No sense buying a whole gallon or quart of something, if you have just a few spots or one small area. In my recent remodel, I just smeared in some carpenters glue with my finger. Hot mud over it. I always use a decent primer sealer before paint. Titebond II was what I had on hand, but I'm sure Titebond III would be better as it's regarded as being more water proof. The walls and ceiling look great, and I used satin finishes.
Appreciate your service, appreciate your tips!! I don't think you can ever know too much about drywall repair. Sometimes we have problems and never know why it happened but the boss wants the job done yesterday. Keep up the tips. I struggle with corners for some reason, could be my small corner trowel. I'm used to the bigger ones.
Thank you Sir for serving our country so that I am free to watch you here and thank you for helping me fix my walls.
Thanks, I appreciate that 😎, & Thanks for subscribing!
Thank you for showing me how to do it right. I've been doing home repairs for years mostly self taught. I always wanted to know how to solve the brown paper problem. Bubble bubble toil and trouble. Than you so much . I've learned a lot more from you but this problem has plagued me the most .
I never even heard of drywall primer before. Great and informative video, I subscribed!
Greatly appreciate the sharing of your experience, True American willing to help people
Yes
Thanks for the information. My son is autistic and has damaged many of the walls in my house. This explains my problems i encountered when I tried to repair the walls.
I am so happy I discovered your channel, as I have just recently started doing drywall repairs.
Brother I wish I would have seen this video years ago, it would have saved me and the wife a lot of headaches lol
The way I've done it (not a pro) but it works for me, i use a spray bottle with just water and spray it till a little and get it wet, let it soak in for a sec and put patch over it, let that dry well, sand it and paint over that. Its worked well for me and hasn't blistered.
Edit thanks for the like, and fixed my typos... so many
I've always had that problem with torn drywall paper. The bubbling drives me nuts. This is a great tip. Thanks!
Great video! Alot of people miss the point about this subject! They want wallpaper removed, and smoothwall finish. And the wallpaper was installed improperly 2000yeats ago! Lol
A great product for this that we use is Drawtite! A bonding sealer, water base.
Once again great video!
I've been a fan of Gardz for this for years. Works great and is fast.
Its called Gardz and yes it works really well.
Good stuff! I use gardz and in a quick pinch for a small tear I will use a spray shellac sealer. It dries very quick and than I can skim with easy 5.
Great video, love how you put all products you use in your description. Glad I came across your video.
I have run into that a bunch of times over the years Guy. I knew there had to be a way to fix it so I tried and put some oil base kiltz over the brown spots where the face of the rock had come off and low and behold when I bedded over it I was surprised at how well it worked. Now that's been probably 25 years ago. I don't like messing with oil base so I will be giving your stuff a go at it. Thanks again Guy. I'm learning some tricks of the trade thanks to you.
Aim High! Go Air Force. My wife still in, critical care nurse, Afghanistan and Iraq vet. She participated as a CCAT nurse. Doing my dads bathroom. Info couldn’t come at a more perfect time. Old tiles took some of the gypsum off. Thanks for the info and for your service 🇺🇸✈️
Thanks for posting this. I'm not a drywall professional but I've done a lot of dryawalling in my nearly 72 years. I've had to deal with this problem many times but I've done something different than what you describe here and it has always worked very well and doesn't require finding and ordering a product that may not be available locally. After removing all loose paper and lightly sanding, I simply apply a coat of shellac which is available virtually everywhere. It seals the remaining paper not only perfectly but very quickly because it has an alcohol base. I noticed the product you recommend takes hours to dry. Shellac is dry in just a minute or too. And fast drying provides an important advantage because the faster a sealer dries, the less likely it is that it will swell the paper you're sealing. So I would be willing to bet that shellac actually works better than the product you mention. Besides, you don't have to wait for hours to complete the repair.
I agree for just a few spots. But I often have to coatwhole walls and then the flammability becomes an issue.
Yes man, shellac is good. I personally have used rattle can oil primer for the past 15 years. Spray it on rub it in with my palm and good to go in about 5 minutes. Perfect every time.
That’s the way I’ve always done it with shellac. Great for big area’s. But for small and multiple areas Spray adhesive is the only way to go.
Spray on wipe flat and Immediately apply finish compound.
@@tompanek7511 I love spray adhesive. Never used it for what your saying though. Ill give it a shot. One of the many uses though I use it for is lids. I run 12" paper around the perimeter of the room first. Spray the super 77 adhesive on the paper. Then just stick the plastic to it like a sticker and drop it down. Cross hatch the lid and completed. Ridiculously fast.
@@sixsixpks I also use spray adhesive instead of masking tape. Way faster and cheaper.
Do not spray on finished wood or shower walls. It’s a bitch to clean off. I do mostly Drywall taping and finish work. Most jobs require masking a spray texture.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and thank you for your service. I have a family member in the AF , F16 and F 35 pilot . AF is the bomb!
I used Gardz and it’s never failed to lock the wall down so there won’t be any bubbles after skim coating!
Great video and thanks for sharing your knowledge!!
New homeowner here. Man, you are freaking incredible, thank you! I'm repainting a closet and I pulled some very old closet shelving units out of it that were nail gunned and glued onto the wall, was awful to get them off. It ended up exposing a lot of the brown paper and left some crumbly holes in the drywall. I was worried about bubbling. Glad I found this video. Watched both Part 1 and Part 2. Your knowledge is invaluable and your cadence and delivery in the videos are spot on. Thank you again. \m/
Awesome! This is why I do this, well, that and to make a living, lol
I am a handyman. Doing it full time for 15 years. I resent the handyman comment at the start. Like you I take pride in my work because I want people to call on me again.
👍👍👍👍🏴
I honestly can’t remember how I said it, but I try to never label everyone into one group. But the truth is I have seen thousands of attempts by handyman that have failed at Drywall despite good intentions, and that is mostly due to not having the proper instruction. Many have learned from watching some of the TV shows which often show really lousy methods. Drywall is an art that not everyone can figure out. There are some drywaller‘s that are lousy at repairs also.
I have a good friend that is a handyman, but he mostly does very high-quality work like laminate flooring, etc. And he is very conscientious about doing good quality work. But he has helped me with Drywall and his skills are not that high but he is always working on it. So I apologize, I didn’t mean to label all handyman as doing low quality work. I will try to watch how I say that or anything similar in the future. Thank you for pointing that out.
@@ThatKiltedGuyDIY I`ll back you up on your comment, We use drywall contractors at work that do excellent work, but when it comes to patches or marrying old to new surfaces they don't seem to know how to "treat" the old surfaces before mudding, bubbling and paper de-laminating is fairly common. A lot of painters for that matter don`t spend the time to prepare the damaged drywall for the repair.
@@ThatKiltedGuyDIY great response
I used to use the shellac primers ... but like you said ... the odor. While I don't mind, the homeowners do. For the last 4 or 5 years I use Dunn Edwards Ultra-Grip primer. Dries super fast and hard, zero VOC and its water based. I always trim or score around it with a blade too. Great video. Thank you for your service.
Thank you veterans for your service and messages I in turn will always be there for each and every one for you too thanks
Much appreciated
Very good demonstrations, I'm 71 and retired but it's still good to learn these tips.
Thanks my friend, enjoy your videos.
Thank you, good sir, for taking the time to share your wisdom. This video answers some questions that most drywall repair videos fail to address.
Best way is to mix confill 50 50 mud to powder and skim over then dry sand and cote with finish mud ie. Green
Thank you so much for your service. My niece, her husband and child was stationed in thetford England Air Force Base for 6 years. Now, they are in Idaho mountain home Idaho Air Force Base so proud of him go airmen. He has his own name on the tail of a f-15 so proud of him. Thank you again for your service.
Awesome! I worked on Jets on the electronic warfare equipment.
Great vid! - I've never used those products (I'm not a sheetrock pro, just reno's) What I found works well is a shellac primer - the solvents get it into the paper and seals it perfectly. Haven't had a bubble with it on some pretty good sized "brown outs".
I use Acryl 60 for concrete bonding. It looks similar to what your using here. It's thin and milky. Great video and I'll use your advice. I'm 59 and at the end of my Army trail of 35 years. Hitting my MRD in NOV. I joined late in my mid 20s.
Welcome back! Enjoy the rest, pursue YOUR dreams!
I like to use 5 minute durabond and that usually works without the paint but I often use kilz pva wall primer first. Depends on the situation. If it's a full remodel I use the pva. If it's just a quick repair I use durabond. Never more than 20 minute. I use that same trick with the knife as well though. I stumbled onto your videos today and I like a lot of things you do. You're explanations are great for beginners and people a step above. Many people can learn a lot from your videos.
Thanks, I appreciate that 😎, & Thanks for subscribing!
I'm just a girl, but my husband taught me how to mud on a 65 ft. Mobie home..paneling through out..I mixed DW compound with Plaster of paris..Filled every grouve in that trailer..It held up with a 60 mi truck over the mountains and resetting up for someone we were just flipping homes at the time. But I learned but I also fell in love with it! ! Happy that I found you I'm always looking to learn more and more about everything that has to do with home repair so you're great thanks so much for all you've given us
That’s awesome Tracy. I’ve got a sister who is the same height as I am, 6‘2“, and she has done pretty much every phase of drywall, so there is nothing wrong with women doing this too.
@Todd lol, no of course not. But my height has always been an advantage because I can stand flat-footed and reach an 8 foot ceiling so it does make it a lot easier, so my sister could also do the same. I was just making a general comment that I thought would be interesting because there’s not too many women out there that are her height. And she used it to her advantage doing drywall for a while. But short men or women can do it just fine you just have to wear stilts or use a ladder more often
Thanks so much for your service, and thank you also for these videos.
I use Gards . Put on heavy so it soaks in the layers of paper. Then when it's good and saturated remove excess
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, and God bless you 🙏
Bless your heart with the vertigo. I’ve heard you mention it a few times. I suffer with it chronically ( pretty much every day) also and pray for you to feel better. I notice watching my sodium helps more than anything and taking meclizine. Thanks for the videos. They are very helpful!!!!
And most of all thanks for your service for our country!
Thanks so much. Right now I'm just living with Lyrica. It helps a lot, but one day I'll try to get off it again and control it naturally. Once my channel doubles in profit from what it is now, I plan to see a naturopathic or functional doc to get help with it.
I like the Roman prep you show here, I installed wallcovering for 25+ years they make a variety of pastes for most any application as well.
Sand the torn drywall paper quickly, or scrape it off with a 6” taping knife...then use a can of hair spray and spray onto the brown paper making the brown paper Sufficiently moist from the hairspray.
No need to prime with alcohol or oil; just use hairspray wait a few minutes after application and then mud over and you will see no blisters whatsoever!
Thank you Mr. patch, we hope you get back out into the field after you are feeling better and one day I look forward to speaking with you over the phone because I have a couple of things I would like you to teach me regarding your awesome videos!
OK but the only thing you said it does is moisten the brown paper. What does the hairspray do that water wont?
@@josheisert8380
He didn't say all it does is moisten the paper - he said apply enough of it to moisten the paper. Watever else is in the spray besides water will act as a sealer similar to the products shown in the video - at least that's the claim being made here.
@@Adam1nToronto you are very intelligent or very perceptive. Thank you. Sir. He is correct. Whatever it does. It seals it in with the alcohol. Water blisters it.
@@Adam1nToronto thanks!

Great video! Wish I had seen this a couple of decades ago!
That the way to do it. Do it right the first time., From one Vet to another thanks for supporting Gary and his foundation. His yearly 4th of July support of the troop show in Washington DC is great to watch. You can also donate a vehicle and they receive money from the auction and you get a tax write off. Its all good.
Thanks, and thank you for your service.
Thanks for the info, just pick up a job to repair another persons mistake. It is this issue exactly, this is going to help me land the repair at another/same owner apartments. This time its 125 large spots to be repaired due to the freeze and busted pipes that happened 2nd week of February.
I just use a good primer and let it dry. Then i mudd and prime again when that dries. Ive never had to go back to a spot ive fixed in the past 30 years
Guy, Thank You for your service. This is a great video that many contractors need to watch. I am a GC and can’t count how many times I’ve been asked by people to come see a repair they had done at their house by a handyman, only to find this exact problem. Also, here in Florida, tape joints on exterior patio ceilings fail constantly, because of humidity. (I think exterior drywall ceilings should never have been allowed to begin with here, but there are many of them) It only takes a few years and then they start to separate, crack, peel, then start falling on the ground. These sealer products should be used as a prep on ALL exterior tape joints. I believe that would eliminate that issue.
Yeah Drywall outside is a bad idea
Wallpaper/bathroom redo, after removal and prep I have always used zinsser cover stain (oil based) dries in an hour, 20 min hot mud, skim out w reg. compound. Then full coverage water based primer + 2 finish coats. For just spots like you showed here I do a very similar thing. Works great every time. Shellac is good for water/smoke stain but often times oil primer is sufficient as well. If a gouge needs fill, I will pack it with 5 or 20 min mud, a cut to size piece of fiba-fuse tape then skim and coat. Invisible every time! Thanks for sharing your video. God bless you sir.
Sanding sealer works just as well. The company I hung paper and vinyl for supplied us with sanding sealer and many other shops that offer fine decorating uses sanding sealer as well to size the wall before you hang or in this case if you need to make a paper board repair.
I am so thankful for you sharing your years of experience.
I must have been lucky with all of my drywall repair jobs as I've never had the problems described here. I get rid of the loose paper, put on a couple of coats of mud, sand smooth, prime, then paint.
Im the same. Now im trying to think of customers names from 25 years ago so i can make sure they dont have jacked up drywall. I guarantee my work for life.
I always cary a couple of cans of spray Zinzer or Kilz paint primer in my work van for doing quick repairs it dries very fast and proceed w/ 5 or 20 minute fast drying drywall mud.
Great points on the use of shelack products.
Good information on safety.
#DOITRIGHT thx for the time you've served this nation and then served us by teaching how to get it done right.
I have been finishing drywall for over 40 years. I can tell you that spray paint works much better and quicker. Reason being that it dry's much quicker. If roll on paint sits too long , it too, will soak thru the first few layers of paper left on the drywall.
You're correct I started doing dry in 1981 and I use spray on pigmented shellac, I also have used caulking but only if it's not too big of a tear , I also saw one old drywaller completely removed all the ripped paper to the bare sheet rock and mud over it with a 50/50 mix of all-purpose and 20 min and it seamed to work out fine, he also said if you want you can primer the bare sheet rock if time permits!
What spray paint would you recommend for these torn paper repairs? I do not want to buy a gallon of the Royal if I can get something smaller and faster that works just as well, thank you in advance
I am a retired painter/drywaller with 45 years experience. We used R35 as a wall-covering primer, and like you said it dries with a tack, which promoted wall-covering adhesion. It was great on non porous surfaces. In the older days it was the alcohol based Bin or oil based Kilz. However, when the water based Gardz came out it was the go to, as it soaks into the paper layers bonding them together.
Thank you for your comment Frank.
I have been a professional drywall finisher 48 years primer is a good way but I prefer to sand it down with a palm sander and use 3M 90 adhesive let dry light sand then put a coat of mud on works for me every time guaranteed
I'm a drywall expert and you became my mentor, your videos rock and very helpful, Thanks a lot.
Your Student GHOST
Thank you for sharing. God bless you and the Gary Sinise foundation
Great tip. I removed 1970's paneling glued on drywall about 10 percent of white paper was damaged. I used guardz two coats and worked great. I painted with 2 coats Behr primer /finish in one. It did flash a little but wife did not notice. Alot better than replacing the drywall.
May I respectfully submit a suggestion about sealing the exposed layered gray paper underneath the finish paper layer on the surface of drywall. I tried your suggestion of GardZ, but found Kills primer is the sealer for ease of application and to protect finished flooring. Gardz was Much harder to clean off existing finished flooring than Kills which does a great job sealing frayed drywall paper.
Thank you for your years of service sir!
I'd like to say thanks on the tips. As well as your services.
Thank you for this video! I just slap on some mud or spackling and paint it. Then I get a bunch of peeling problems. Then I try again. Then I watch an amateur youtuber a solution, and it fails. Nice to find a good video like yours that shows how the pros do it.
Glad I could help. I had dozens of failures before figuring out this solution.
My dog loves drywall paper. This is a great video.
probably not much nutrition in it.
Fantastic videos your incredible sharing your knowledge . Lovely to hear the US look after their Veterans. 👏👏 I only wish I could say the the same for the U.K. My father was in the Navy served for years sadly they hanged him out to dry when he developed lung cancer / COPD and a Collapse lung from all the Chemicals and poison gases he was Exposed in the late 1950’s from his job. There wasn’t much support or help.
Thank you for making your videos !! Stay safe ! 🤍🌈✨👏👏👏
Thanks buddy, I always like to hear the tips from the pros.
Thank you for your Service ! And for this video. I had this exact kind of damage but not too extensive. I'm learning more as each day passes.
Glad i could help
Thank you. I've been using regular primer for years with some difficulty. This was very informative.
Instead of using R-35 primer, which I have used for years to prep for hanging wall covering I prime the prepped out drywall paper area with Bin primer. This is a white pigmented shellac based primer. Nothing will seal and lock down the drywall paper better. Because it’s a shellac based product, it will resist causing any future bubbling that you may get with a latex based primer such as R-35. That’s my go to product for The 40 plus years that I’m in the trade. Love your videos so keep up the great work.
