    this and your roller trick vid are giving me the confidence to skim the walls at my place, needed due to having the tenants from hell staying for 6 months. I've done so much patching of holes I think a skim coat is in order. I come from a family of painters (father and brothers), i was the black sheep who got a desk job :) For many years I worked weekends as a journeyman, and I did offside with a plasterer for a couple months..but that decades ago. My cutting in skills are still there and ability to patch holes, and knowledge that the only way to get a good finish is in the prep...what I seem to have lost is my speed and soft back and knee muscles from a lifetime as a desk jockey :) liked and subbed...you have a great resource here.

    Thank You sooo much for sharing this Great Video !! This is the very first video I have seen (0ver 100) that shows how to work and fix bad wall repairs. My kitchen was remodeled in 2008 . I took down 2 upper kitchen cabinets on either side of my kitchen window which faces North. I swiped the wall with my hand and white powder covered it. I then started wiping the other walls and kept wiping off white powder, This is telling me that walls are
    not painted. The person just basicly put a thin coat of mud on walls and may have put on enough white primer to make it look painted. I thought it had paint on the walls cuz it was brighter white than the paint that was on it b4 the remodel. Bright florescent lighting made them even look whiter! I will be using Plus 3 in the box joint compound to do skim coats. Should I skim coat and prime all the walls b4 painting or just places like screw pops,added more mud on areas, previously painted areas , around switch plates etc?

    #drywall tube Paul I am working on a small toilet room in the bathroom that had wall paper from the 80's. Do you have the video for skim coating that issue. I have the PRO-99 RX-35 I was going to use to seal it first before skim coating. Also need to replace some of the tape in the corners and midway down the wall, (must have cut the drywall when installing instead of one big sheet). The builder really packed the mud on thick along the taped areas. I believe I saw a video about taping but wondering if the wallpaper video is up yet. Thanks!! Enjoying your videos!! You have made repairs and improvements so much simpler!!

    should i try and skim coat it

  • @bobtate336
    @bobtate336 4 года назад

    #DrywallTube. Thank you. I am a beginner. Facing challenger of repairing holes in 1950s weird kind of plaster (cement like) walls. Their skim coat is absolutely smooth. The deep plaster isn't like anything I have seen compared to modern stuff. Have no idea of what they used. Instead, I filled the holes with durabond and easysand. now ready to try skim coat with regular mud. Sure hope it will work. thanks for your videos.

    Is there a way to save the ceiling that has had a water leak that saturated the drywall?

    • @PaulPeck
      @PaulPeck  6 лет назад

      Is the ceiling still wet or is it dried out? -Paul

    • @shutterbug49
      @shutterbug49 6 лет назад +1

      Paul Peck DrywallTube - still damp. Will be dry by the time i get back.

    • @PaulPeck
      @PaulPeck  6 лет назад

      Yeah put some fans on it and crank the air conditioner. If there is an attic? Go and move any insulation from anywhere that it's wet.Let me know when you get back if the ceiling is sagging? Or it's condition.👍 -Paul

    • @shutterbug49

    Do I sand after ski coating? I don’t have a texture ceiling

  • @villelikockt
    @villelikockt 6 лет назад +2

    What grit of sandpaper would be fitting after a skim coat? Im probably not gonna be able to achieve a good enough surface to not have to sand.

    • @Website-Developer
      @Website-Developer 6 лет назад +1

      Paul does a great job here that requires very little sanding. With a lot of practice, sanding takes little time (cost-effective) and results with a fine substrate for painting without having all that unnecessary "drywall dust" Primer won't stick to dust and must be cleaned thoroughly. Otherwise, the painted walls could easily peel, nick and/or chip no matter how high the quality of the paint. I have seen paint literally come off the wall with a scrub from cleaning because the substrate was "over sanded". As a professional painter of 40 years, I would love to follow behind this man's work in both remodel and new construction And he can use this quote anywhere he likes.
