I hope you found value in that video, if you did, you’re going to love my free masterclass: www.seejanedrillcourse.com/register-home-masterclass
Straight to the point, no stupid music, I learn a lot from Leah.
Thanks
Fred Hoffman
I’m blown away by her knowledge and tips
@@angelsamson5486 👍👌😁
YES!! OMG someone please get the word out that the background music does nothing but annoy! Love this girl too! She doest waste everyone’s time with stupid stuff.
Angel Samson oi
Stupid music!!!Sometimes 30 sec into the vid
Damn. This woman was born to be a teacher. She has the teaching gift.
Excelent
@@tamaraharrop3750 she was born a he :o

@@jimgiraffe5253 Not at all. I am deliberately challenging you on what your point is, what business it is of yours, and what relevance it has to the content, as well as challenging your bigotry and the irrational phobia you're now displaying!
She would make a great teacher!
"You can do this". Those words are such a confidence booster.
I'm glad to hear it! I believe most home improvement tasks can be taken on by homeowners.
This lady is the greatest!! I always REMEMBER what she teaches in her videos because of her communication ability. She enunciates every word clearly, emphasizes important points and just has the aura of professionalism in every video.
I've been involved in the building trade for my entire adult life, I'm now 60yrs young and your channel is my first stop when I'm stuck on a project awesome job.
What a fantastic channel. Sometimes I come here just when I'm stressed, I find Leah's calm, methodical, and informative presentations to be more engaging and relaxing than sites specifically intended to calm. This channel is an informative oasis!
First time watching a vid and I totally agree with you I feel very relaxed after watching the vid! What a lovely & calm person .
This alone is enough for me to subscribe
100% agree!
She’s great. I’ve been in construction 30 years and I learn something every time I watch one of her videos. She just explains everything so well
I’m a professional painter, and I appreciate Leah’s teachings. She is the real deal, and she doesn’t come off as phony.
Leah could talk a layperson through defusing an atomic bomb and have them tackle the task with complete confidence. You got the gift and thank you for sharing your gift with us.
Amen to that!
i agree
Does she dismantel atomic boms too?
Love this comment! So true as well!
Oil based gloss and Penetrol are a match made in heaven. Old school painting is a forgotten art and I'm glad there is still a couple of us left to showcase it in our videos
More than 2 of you....I've always gotten excellent, glass-like, smooth finishes with high-quality alkyd paint and China bristle brushes (Wooster and Purdy are my favorites for the past 25 years). Will look out for the ox hair brushes as well as the paint conditioner. 😁
You have the "it " factor as a teacher. I studied to be a shop teacher in my younger years, and I wish I had the talent for relating to people that you project. Latex has gotten better for a decent finish, but the oil finish you show is clearly superior. Thanks.
There is something so reassuring about Leah. She's a great teacher but the tone of her voice and her whole manner is just so easy to listen to and comforting..she makes you feel you can do it. I'm currently plastering a whole house with no prior experience after watching her on youtube.
This is one engaging presenter! I didn’t think I cared about oil vs latex paint, yet here I am - absolutely intrigued. Now to find more videos by Leah!
I know right! I've watched this although I knew the ins and outside but I always find myself staying mesmerized
Me too when I heard oil I thought nah nah but she makes it look like candy
No kidding! Me too!! 😂
@@lizoest3524 I CAN'T STOP WATCHING THESE
I've got a beautiful 80 year old craftsman house with a lot of trim and wainscoting. This technique is exactly what I want. Thank you for the detailed information.
Leah, you are simply an amazing human being and an outstanding carpenter. Thank you for all of your instructional videos, you’ve saved me countless times!
I could learn anything from you! A brilliant, articulate speaker. ✨❤️✨
I love your show! I have 30 years experience in building and painting,and this always a treat to watch! Please keep going,and inspiring us!
Her depth and breadth of construction trade knowledge is amazing, and almost mystical. So much of the traditions and methods of the manual artisan have been lost
I can see Leah has impressed you, so why are you calling her short and fat?
Your Mama
@@ivanashley7875 I think I see your joke playing on the depth and breadth. If that's what it is it's not funny it's trollish and completely inappropriate because the person posted did not use the words short and fat
@@halboyd6049 Get a life
@@halboyd6049Isn't It ironic, I pretend to misconstrue the context of Mr Grommet's reply. whilst YOU actually misconstrue the context of mine, yet I'm the toy doll??
This lovely lady is an amazing tutor, i could listen to her all day long
Thank you, Leah, I haven't used oil-based paint in years and now I remember why I love it so much. Just beautiful.
50% preparation + 50% perspiration = 100% satisfaction. I followed your steps and got an outstanding result. Thanks Leah for this and all your other great videos.
Leah has skills - been watching her for years. What a lovely lady!
I love you! I should have watched this before painting, sanding, repainting, sanding, varnishing, and finally papering over my kitchen cart!
I've watched leah for years sometimes over and over she's a gem to the learning world keep it up leah
I would watch this woman teach me to make toast
Roy C Mills Jr I know! She’s awesome. Nice voice, clear and concise information, and still personable.
🤣🤣🤣 right !!!
Me too! I did my first tile job based on her help.
She probably has a very clever trick or certain way on how to spread the butter that'll make it easy and save you time.
Nice! :) 😎
I've watched two hours of painting videos and she is the first one to tell me what "tip off" means. Thank God for this incredible person!
In Western Europe we call it "laying off"
I'm not sure what she's doing (sounds like a finishing stroke) but it's pretty superfluous eitherway, just use long smooth strokes with your arm and spread the paint out evenly when you paint - the oil and floetrol will do the rest.
As always, it’s a TOTAL PLEASURE to watch & learn anything from Jane! She is just an incredible presenter!!
Leah is my go-to, so knowledgeable and understandable. I'd also like to see a Leah Biography video one day!
You are an amazing teacher! Your voice has a tone that is very easy to listen to. I can't wait to watch more of your videos!
I’m a how AND why person. Don’t tell me “it’s done this way”. I have to know the reasons behind it. You give those. I love the explanations without being too verbose. You don’t carry on and on and ......... I think I love you. ❤️
Hahahaha..Lovely
Excellent job clearly explaining how to use oil base paint and eliminate brush marks. A natural talented teacher. Thank you for this video.
I’m a novice painter taking on oil for my trim. This is exactly the right info, and you’re a great teacher. Thank you!
I need a sound byte of Leah's "you can do this." It gives me life!
It's so nice to see that there is actually a handy woman TV show where she's not prancing around in tight pants and a brand new flannel shirt, holding unused tools from the sponsors!
Sexy and handy aren’t mutually exclusive.
You notice that now n then too huh 😆
I so agree!👍
@@SupHapCak when it’s used exclusively, it drowns out voices and instructors that may bring great value
Lol!
your amazing! My father was a trained painter paper hanger ,after WW2 US sent whoever served and wanted to to vocational schools and hew LOVED oil paint. It was wonderful to see you bring bit back into the light! TY
LOVE Leah’s vids. So impressed and so grateful for the excellent, straight forward teaching. Great production too
I'm getting addicted to her videos. I'm starting some DIY projects with little experience and she is so good at explaining. Way better than college professors that I had.
Another great video! There are so many of us chomping at the bit to take on our own projects and your simple and straight forward videos are such a great help. The things you share might be common knowledge for a pro or even a veteran diyer, but is foreign to us newbies. Keep up the great work!
I've watched a few of your videos now. I just want to say that you come across as so genuine, and your teaching method is wonderful. You truly have a gift. Thanks, and keep the videos coming!
I've been using the additive for about 10 years now an it just can't be beat. Thank you for highlighting it in this video.
I love you Leah. ❤️ Just had this conversation with a customer at the work who was particularly sensitive to fumes.
Leah is brilliant. Period.
This is probably the best piece of advice I have ever received. I have never tried to paint with oil based paint. After your advice I have loved the oil based paint. Everything looks so awesome, so smooth... Thank you so much.
Thank you Leah! Teachers in absolutely every field have something to learn from you.
That was such a great video. It felt like I was attending a class, thanks for uploading.
I wish Leah was my Nana. Such a protective and warm personality!
I love your videos. I do maintenance for a nursing home and literally was handed the keys day one and said figure it out but every single time I’ve needed help you are always the one I can go to for help. Really wish I had someone like you to work with me to teach me the ropes vs me figuring out through trial and lots lots lots of error lol
Leah is an inspiration beyond projects...during the pandemic I took up learning Bass Guitar (at age 68 and no musical background)...when faced with a difficult lesson or song....I find myself saying “you can Do this!” Thank You Leah!!
Dear Leah,
Been painting most of my life, and been aware of the practices of a good paint job. Even being cognizant of the principles in your tutorial, I find your video delightful to watch. Thank you, and keep up the good work.
Ugh yeah. Just bought a house and want to scrape down every wall
Great job. I've been painting for 3 years and love it. That was a good brush you used. I like the corona oil brushes but I use Purdy for anything else. Prep is pretty much the most important part.
Brilliant teacher, clear, easy to follow, engaging, love her video. Thank you so much Leah! Keep going!!
Ms Leah, your tapes helped me do multiple repairs, saving, inspiring to just do it. Grateful to you.
Great skill from a great teacher. Thank you Leah. I do a lot of home projects including painting. I never liked oil paint but based on your video I will give it another try.
Your such an amazing teacher. I wish you where my teacher in high school for every subject
Leah, your positivity is infectious. You totally rock!
Hi Leah,
Your videos are alway my first stop. Thank you for your instructional work.
I love the finish you get with oil-based paints. And honestly, the VOC (smell) is something that let's me know that the project finish will last for a long time. Originally growing up and living in California, it was disappointing to see oil-based paint get some stigmatized. But now living elsewhere in the country over the last 25 years, I've been free to use oil-based paints for specific jobs and not worry about its quality or availability. Great video!
Thx Leah, my mom is a professional artist. I grew up with turpentine as a condiment. Lol , my late father in law was a professional decorator in London. His painting was art . His house interior painting was repainted frequently. IT LOOK LIKE CLASS OR SPRAYED ON.
Quality brushes along with the sanding and chemistry are IMPERATIVE!
Excellent video ( again) ❤️
thanks, Jon, that is very kind of you!
JON Gergeceff un
Love me some Leah!
Ive learned so so much from her. I think her top talent is that she instills confidence to try something new, whilst walking you through it slowly. As others have noted, there 's no music or extra yapping!
You are very clear on your explanations. And you do not waste time, you go to what we need to understand and learn.
I am learning something new, every time I watch one of your videos. Thanks Leah :)
It's easy to get a good finish on a small straight piece of timber but not so easy when painting small intricate pieces of furniture etc; believe me, you wont get that finish unless you spray paint rather than brush. I have been in the building trade and painting nearly 60 years and no matter how you apply with a brush on small tricky pieces of timber a finish like what is shown here just wont happen. Try painting trellis work with oil based paints and see what I mean. As for getting a high gloss on water base paints, it you really want such a finish, paint the article with water based paint and then when its dry, coat it with a clear oil based lacquer or varnish and hey presto you will have your high gloss finish.
I felt like painting my whole house after listening to you!! wonderful Job!!
nahpoli ... Me too for sure! I feel like I can surely paint my antique Bombay bedroom set with confidence 🥰.
This woman is too amazing and I was looking for her videos and couldn't remember the channel, so glad I refound her.
Leah, you should have your own TV show and your own DIY School. Thank you for taking the time and effort to share your knowledge with the world. you are an excellent teacher.
We just rented a house in the Outer Banks of North Carolina that had oil painted trim and doors. The finish was unbelievably high quality. I am sold on oil base finishes.
Jeff Parker
stephen Taylor lol
Excellent instruction from this lady as always. I much prefer the finish with oil based paint but the reduction in VOCs means white paint tends to yellow especially in the shade.
Impressed with the content, but blown away by the delivery and explanation! Not all RUclipsrs have that gift to teach!
Thank you soooooooo much Leah. You definitely have a teacher's gift. Blessings!!!
Damn! This was a quality video. YTr's need to take note on this.
Straight to the point an no filler nonsense.
Leah,
Wow, Thanks for all your awesome videos. I have learned so much from you, I look forward to watching all of your great videos and learning a lot more from you.
What a wonderful presentation and most of all excellent educator. Absolutely a great video for young, new homeowners. And us handyman fathers who help the kids get settled. Thank you.
saw quite a few videos over the years and subscribed by this one... she just knows and understands how to deliver information to a human.
It work on steel like a dream real smooth!!!! 8 to 1. I can now quit pulling my hair out THANK YOU !!!!!
This was by far the best tutorial I have seen on RUclips in recent memory! I have several doors I need to repaint and I was nervous because I never used oil based paint before. After watching this video am now confident to tackle this project. Thank you so much!! BTW- I am now your newest subscriber to your channel ;)
Every time I watch one of Leahs videos , I learn volumes. This woman is good.
There is nothing like the beauty of oil based paints. Great instructional videos.
Now I am going to lose an entire day watching all of Leah’s other videos! Wish I had discovered her channel during COVID shutdown… and before starting all my COVID projects! Thank you, Leah.❤️
Back in the olden days we used oil-based primers mostly and when we used them we added almost a one-to-one ratio of penetrol to primer to allow the primer to soak deep into the grain of the wood giving a very long-lasting paint job one of the reasons why paint feels off a house is because it's not sitting into the wood it's sitting on the wood
So can you use Penetrol on latex paint or primer? Would it make the primer soak into the wood than sitting above the wood?
@@stevel1475 on oil based paint yes it's worth the time and money.. latex or water based products a little water will do the same thing.. but then again what do I know
Yup, this is the way I wish ALL instructional You Tube videos were presented. Great instructor, great info, very nice presentation. Thank you, Leah!
Thanks a bunch. Her instruction is short n sweet. No fancy words. Just clear instruction. 👍👍👍
Thank you , just want I was searching for. Great video. What a great instructor you are.
This lady is awesome. Do not forget to wear a GOOD air mask. One used against fumes these are very good. Avoid the VOCs.
What is voc?
@@floridagirl386 She explained that clearly in the video. Volatile organic compounds. For more clarity watch the video.
Just to clear, liquids give off vapors. Vapor pressure of the liquid is why the smell comes off but in a steam like vapor. Heat the liquid (increase vapor pressure), more vapors leave the surface until you reach boiling. Liquid turns to vapor or gas.
Vapors, they are paint vapors, not fumes fumes are when you are burning something with a torch
@@peterdean5300
Actually, no, they are paint fumes. When the paint starts to dry and the water in it starts to evaporate, the paint starts to release fumes. Fumes are solid particles released into the air, in this case, by evaporation. The fumes in paint are called VOCs or "volatile organic compounds" which are solids dispersed into the air by evaporation. It is not the vapor from the evaporation itself. But you are right, fumes can also come from heating something up.
I have learn a hell of lot more in the past months than from other You Tube videos in watch in years ,
if she had a class I would pay to attend all.
thanks Leah for getting to the point .
Wonderful! I was really ignorant about using oil paints and you've expanded my mind and choices. You are an excellent teacher and I look forward to learning more from you. Thanks!
You really need to get on PBS or something, great presence, informative info, and positivity.
Something better than pbs lol
Absolutely, she needs a show...in addition to RUclips. She is really awesome for all the awesome reasons provided by folks.
PBS probably won't touch her. She knows what she is doing, is friendly, speaks clearly, is encouraging to her viewers, shows you how to do work that you think is beyond your ability so you easily gain confidence in doing the work and, oh yeah, she's a competent, professional, independent black lady.
Her balance of instruction and information is Jedi Master level 🔥🔥🔥
Leah! You explain things so well and your lessons are greatly appreciated
I’ve been watching her for quite awhile she is truly knowledgeable she is awesome
Thank you sooo much! I am buying an old farmhouse that hast panel doors. I wanted to paint them with a beautiful glossy finish. I have use latex enamel finish ( which is not very easy to use. Requires some effort). But still knew I would not quite get the finish I wanted. Never knew OIL paint is the exact finish I was looking for. So thank you. Am also going to paint the old kitchen cabinets. I think oil paint is the ticket for them too. To get a durable and scrubable finish that will last. Again- THANK- YOU!
Mary Dorr; Try Kelly Moore Dura-Poxy if it’s available in your area with 265 hybrid primer and you will have the results you are looking for without the solvents and VOC’s of oil. Everything takes practice so don’t get discouraged, start on door casing and work your way up to more difficult things.
George Blumer Thank you! I just looked that paint up and it only available way south of me- Kansas City (I am in MI) and below. Sounds like what I am looking for though, too bad. I am still gonna look some more. Maybe I can get it by mail. I like the durability of oil paint but not crazy about a very shiny finish. But I am so happy to finally get my dream house (in the country on just a little land) that I won’t be disappointed either way. Thanks for the tip and encouragement! Have a beautiful day!
Mary Dorr I
You just solved my painting problem. I love you!
Leah, you make EVERYTHING look so easy.❤
WoW, I learn something new every time I watch your videos. Than you, Leah
You're a great teacher.
You are an absolute star! Keep up the great work
You are so calm balanced and positive. The gifts of a good teacher with skills .
Watching in 2021. I have a wood painting project glad I came across this brilliant video. Very clear and articulate 👌👌
Great vid Leah, beautiful finish, keep the vids coming !
Excellent display thanks
I'm years out I know , but just seen this video today and I never heard of a paint conditioner, just goes to show you learn something new every day .
