What a timely video. I was just thinking about tackling the painting over of my stained window trim. I'll let you know how it goes!
Enjoy the fumes!
I like your videos. Really cool presentation style.
I appreciate that kind sir. I’m in the middle of building out the new studio so lots more content coming!
Our moulding just has a poly coat. Do we need to sand it first or just apply the bin primer?
Ideally you want to give it a scuff sand but we often skip this step and just start priming. I’ve never had BIN not adhere to a surface, so you can pretty much just send it. 🤙
Best primer for preventing bleed through on old woodwork. Works great with Emerald trim paint.
We have tried everything else, and BIN is still the winner winner chicken dinner 🐓
True. Nothing better as far as adhesion and bleed-through prevention.
Awesome video! Your channel has made me confident in painting.
Question, would you mask the ceiling and walls if you were to not paint them? Or just cut in without any tape?
If you're using BIN then you might wanna tarp off the walls with plastic because it's super loose and drips quite a bit. If you're just talking about painting crown molding, then it really depends on how confident you are with the product your using and your brush skills. If I were painting crown and not the walls, then I'd probably tarp the walls off with plastic just to prevent drips from getting on the wall.
@@SuperVassarBrothers I appreciate the feedback! 💪🏼
Have you ever used a krud kutter or something similar following the initial sand? I have seen some painters do this but am wondering if it is worth the effort.
I know some guys that do that. I’ve never found it necessary unless there’s some nasty build up of dirt or grime on the surface. We scuff sand and then hit the surface with whatever primer is necessary.
I have a granddaughter who went through a "harry potter " stage. Her ceiling is painted black laytex and her walls are a mix of red laytex and gold laytex. My question is what primer should i use for the ceiling and walls that will cover and hide the black and red and gold. Im not afraid to throw money at this so im looking for what will work the best ,not the most economical way. Lol! I need help! Lol! Thanks ! 😊
Oh , almost forgot, we are going back to white for the walls and ceiling. Thanks 😊
So I’d recommend going with a more premium primer because you’re going to get better coverage. Premium Wall and Wood Primer from Sherwin Williams is what I’d use. Then use a quality paint for your topcoats. Emerald Matte is our current go-to for walls and it covers well. You may still end up doing 3 top-coats but you’ll get a good feel for it after you do 2.
Good luck with your project!
@Super Vassar Brothers thanks! I'll let yall know how it comes out. I remember when her mom helped her paint her ceiling black a couple of years back. I immediately thought to myself, "Oh, that's gonna be difficult to paint over in the future !" Here I am in the future! Lol!
Why did you switch from using Duration Matte to Emerald Matte as your go to wall paint? What differences have you noticed that made it worth it?
After you apply bin do you sand it?
We didn’t. It was pretty smooth after we coated it.
