Hey Blaine, I only just found this new channel! It'll come in handy since I'm still renovating the house I had to do plastering work in! Can't wait to watch!
Thank you : )
good work blaine !
Cheers mate! Means a lot
Best thing to avoid the paint coming off with the tape is to remove the tape before the paint dries 😉
👍👍
Absolute no no, that’s when you get bleeds and runs. Always let the paint dry.!
@@NiktheEnglishGreekCypriot
Latex/water based paint dries quickly enough and within 3-5 minutes this type of paint wil not bleeds or runs anymore.
@@Beats-By-Anthony absolute rubbish, any internal areas ie the corners of the wall where it meets the skirting, or where the architrave meets the skirting, that area always takes a lot longer to dry as it’s thicker there. Why would you even risk pulling the tape and ruining a good job for the sake of waiting half an hour or an hour till it’s bone dry
As a pro painter myself, we are used to paint 90% of our wood with a rounded bursh while ost people outside the Netherlands sued to paint their trim and wood mostly with a squared brush, that's pretty remarkable but quite funny 😀Good video!!
Thanks for the insight mate - really appreciate it! And thanks for watching 👍

Hi can I have your help please. I am painting my doors and skirting boards with the satin durable paint. It currently has gloss or satin paint. Do I need to sand or would it be okay to just paint it. I have an electrical sand machine but it seems a lot to use! 😂 is it okay to just manually sand please help I would appreciate it
Latex (water based) paint shows way more brush marks. You need to add a proper thinner to get it to look good, although it will never look as good as oil-based. I've never heard of it yellowing, I'll have to investigate that.
oil based especially gloss these days yellows faster some faster and more than others especially were there's no UV light and on rads. oil based paints don't self level like they used to anymore and don't cover as well and ain't as durable especially tinted colours take a very long time to fully cure and never dry as durable as the whites or ready mixed colours. These paints being used here are water alkyds so will still go yellow again especially were there's no uv light etc
How do I gloss old woodwork?
3 tips
1 always give wood work a light rub with a used 120 before final coat
2 always do archy before skirting as u will get brush dirty
3 the most important one get some decent sandpaper not that cheap stuff u used lol 😂😂
good work with new channel
Haha brilliant advice my friend and thanks for watching!
