    people who have never painted a wall always think, "oh, it's paint, how hard can it be? anyone can paint." but every trade has techniques and tricks that separate the professionals from the amateurs. thank you for sharing

      Ime in the trade in England.
      I always roll the walls first before cutting in, then that gives the walls time to dry whilst cutting in.
      I find that way much quicker , I also use a scuttle bucket for my paint instead of a tray.

    I've worked as a painter in the past, and have to say so far your tutorial is the best I have seen on RUclips. Having worked with top notch painters, I am pleasantly surprised to learn some nuances that were amiss from my experience. You got a like and a new subscriber!
    I would like to share a tip with all of you: having worked with many decorators in the past, I learned to always remove all the wall plates and mask the electrical components. Meanwhile, clean the wall plates from any dirt, sand, prime and paint them with the same color of the wall - or cover them with the wallpaper being used, if that's the case - once the paint is dry apply 2 coats of non-yellowing sealant, scrape with a blade any excesses of paint and wait as long as possible to put them all back, that is to give the chance for the paint to cure properly. Aesthetically the finish result is incomparable, no matter how humble a room may be. As they say, the devil lies in the details!

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  4 года назад

      I have noticed Aussie switches and power points are different to American ones. The new style here have a cover plate that you remove when painting and replace when finished, the switch still looks like the one in this video except it has a removable cover.

    So I just completed painting a mudroom using a technique like this, using an off-white with pearl sheen. When the paint dried, I had lap lines (sheen differences) galore in certain light, looking down the wall. Yikes. I think I my roller may have been too dry when laying off, or perhaps I didn't overlap my up and down strokes quite enough. This gentleman makes it look so easy! I'm back to Square One, starting over. I'm going to try an eggshell sheen this time, to reduce the light reflecting on an imperfect technique, hopefully.

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  2 года назад +1

      Yes you most likely didn't have enough paint on the roller or maybe the nap of your roller sleeve was to short. Use around 15 mm nap, you should find this works better.

    Good video but you should remove the power outlet covers before painting. It’s a lot easier, you can paint right up to the metal, and in the future when the outlets are replaced the standard for the cover size may be smaller, meaning you’ll have to repaint the wall if you didn’t remove them

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  9 месяцев назад +1

      Outlets here in Australia are different to other countries, we do have a cover plate on the new style of outlets but the outlet is still screwed firm to the wall. We could remove it but the wires are connected to it and it would only hang down the wall. Generally for insurance purposes we do not play with them. The one in this video is and older style with no cover plate.

    Would you cut in the whole wall on a final coat like you did on this video or would you do it in sections as you go?

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  5 лет назад +11

      I do cut in the entire houses before I roll, light colours are fine to be done this way but some darker colours would need to be done wall by wall.

    This is amazing. Question though, how on earth you getting so much paint from one dip? I feel like I have to redip all time but I tend to use the short rollers and do tiny sections at a time. This would be so much quicker!

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  2 года назад +3

      Have a look at this video, it might help you get more paint on the roller.

    It’s best practice to take off the fittings e.g. power point faceplate as you’ll always hit the us edge (no matter how ‘pro’ you are, don’t sidestep this!) and you’ll notice in this video the different texture between the rest of the wall and close to the edge of the fitting. If you don’t care for the quality because it’s a rental, then that’s a different story. :)

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  4 года назад +2

      Here in Australia the old power points like in this video if removed will be hanging by wires so you would still need to cut around but it could look a little neater or just be annoying because power point is now hanging down the wall. Generally power points shouldn't be touch by any one except an electrician, if something was to go wrong and a painter had removed power point then they would be liable for any damages. Modern day electrical sockets have a removable cover but you still need to cut around them like I have in this video. The good part is you don't need to worry about cutting in perfectly as the cover hides all the edges..

      Not only that, if you ever replace the faceplates with a different (small) size, you'll have painted all the way up to the electrical box instead of up to the faceplate itself.

    How do you manage to get so much paint on wall? You've literally done the whole wall in 6-7 minutes. Roller must be really good

    • @howtopaintinfo
      @howtopaintinfo  4 года назад +2

      A good roller sleeve helps, normally I would use a 14 inch roller which is quicker again.
