I really like this guy. All the projects I’ve done at my house have been learned from watching this channel. He’s saved me so much money.
I feel like I need to add this guy to my will. 😂😂😂😂. He’s Helped me more than some of my friends and family have.
hes very talented
one of the few good things that happened in 2020 is that your channel blew up, it's wonderful to see. congrats.
Thank you!
Agreed. I just watched this video and it felt like I was watching for 5 minutes...but it was 25. With so few 'apprentice' opportunities now, this is the next best thing for me to learn my craft.
I absolutely love the care and quality that goes into Jeff's work. Great tips on cutting corners. Thanks!
Like others commented, timely video! I just purchased the paint and 3-inch Purdy angled brush to cut-in on my daughter's bedroom and bathroom, before painting the rest of the house. It's my first time painting.
Cheers Donald!
I love how through you are! You are the first person I’ve seen explain exactly how to clean a paint brush!
Your videos gave me the confidence to start my own home updates, thanks!
This is a game-changer for my home improvement projects. Your expert advice on cutting corners and other time-saving techniques not only saved me hours but also produced professional-looking results. I highly recommend this video to anyone looking to up their painting game.
Gosh, I've lost count of the countless gems I've discovered in your amazing videos!! ❤️ 🇬🇧 🎨
Every time I watch your channel,, I think wow. This guy is a ROCKSTAR. Thanks for making everything full of common sense
im a drywall contractor and a union drywaller of 11 years id be lying to say i havent learned alot from you thanks bro your channel is very helpful and fun to watch
Jeff, you forgot to beat the devil out of the brush when you were cleaning it!
That small brush from big brush trick is so logical but I never thought of it.
Man, I love how much light you have in that kitchen. My 100 year old one looks like a dungeon.
Cheers!
Glad to know I've been cleaning my brushes right the whole time! 😁
Perfect!
Thx Jeff. Loving the knowledge and experience I’m getting after doing many of these projects. I’ve been a dyi guy for fifty plus years and man I’m learning how to do things the right way and save time and money. Cheers
Your channel inspired me so much… I can do minimal work… I’m definitely not a craftsman but I can get some stuff done… You’ve got me ripping off moldings, painting rooms. The whole bunch… I enjoy learning from all your experience and wisdom… Keep up the great work. Cheers from New Jersey!
Thank you, thats a great tutorial! In the store I see a lot of paint brushes and rolls, would be awesome if you make a step by step review of all of them - what makes them quality items, what purpose are they for, what to buy whats not to buy ever.. Thank you again!
Great suggestion!
Everything takes practice, the brush is the least of the tool. There's a reason it looks easy.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Have you done one yet? I have two mini rollers in a set. Ones foam and ones lambs wool. It doesn't say what's for gloss and what's for emulsion?. We need to know these things. Thanks from Aberdeen Scotland.
1:00 - I did this in my kitchen (intentionally). I used a lighter blue-grey on the wall facing the window, and a shade darker blue-grey on the kitchen interior where I have my cabinets, countertops & appliances (all brushed chrome / dark grey / matte black). The corner where these colors meet, it's almost imperceptible thanks to a doorway. The appearance this gives is a naturally bright room overall, with a very comfortable and complementary winter color scheme without excessive contrast.
Hi Jeff. Brilliant painting tips. Great vid. Cheers! 👍👌. Take care and stay safe guys. All the best. 🇬🇧👌❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
My name is Ray, I live in Pa. I’m 64 years old and thought I learned the right way to do things. That being said… I have learned a lot from your videos. You can teach an “ old dog a new trick “.
As much as I hate painting (and I and really loathe painting) your tricks and techniques make me think I can tackle any paint job and enjoy it. I guess I'll have to try it.
I not know if f anyone has told you this yet , but what a beautiful job you did on your farmhouse . Thank you for sharing .
Happy to know I've been doing it right all these years!
Good stuff!
I always keep a clean damp rag handy to wipe off paint that went where it shouldn't. Your channel is great and I have learned so much, thank you Jeff ☺️
I've been completely remodeling my basement using your videos as guides from framing a new wall, installing and finishing drywall, wiring up new lighting, and now I'm almost to the point of painting. So far it's looking great and this video came at just the right time, thank you for all the fantastic and well done videos!
Wow, this video is packed with fantastic painting tips. Thanks for your help, Jeff
Glad it was helpful! Cheers!
This dude is awesome. He explains things so well. Great instructor!
Absolutely love this channel, Jeff is informative and down to earth. Explains things easily and gives great hints . Thank you so much.
This fellow is a master craftman.
ROFL! Your Wife must be happy with all that paint on the sink and the Countertop! TYVM for all the Tips & Tricks!
Yeah, I know you cleaned up after yourself! 😋
Another great primer alternative is the Sherwin Williams Exterme Bond primer. Works great on 70's wood paneling
Great video Jeff! Two questions related to some of your talking points in the video:
1a. How do you feel about some of the other paint technologies like Pearl and Satin finishes (for trim/doors) from a durability standpoint? I know Semi-Gloss is the "tried and true" but sometimes find it to be still too glossy.
1b. Do you recommend sticking with Eggshell for Kitchens, Bath, and other high humidity/spill-prone locations or just ensure you get 100% Acrylic and choose your finish to taste? I know things like Benjamin Moore Aura Bathroom comes in just Matte and offers a great finish (we have it currently in our one bathroom).
2. To get an even more razor finish on baseboards, casing, and other trim, do you recommend to ever pre-paint the entire pieces before air nailing them into place on the wall? And then just coming back with caulk and/or paint to hide all the nail holes? I would assume one would simply need to exercise just a little more caution and patience during install so as to not mar the painted pieces... Cheers!
Man this is timely for me. THANK YOU! Great videos.
Glad to help!
This is such an informative, helpful video on how to start by finishing projects 😂 Thanks, Jeff!
Glad it was helpful! Cheers Kimberlee!
💜Saved this to my 'favourites'. Thx!
Glad it was helpful!
Just in case you didn’t see my project suggestion, I’m pasting it here at the top.
Have you ever done interlocking weatherstripping? It’s the best weatherstripping I’ve ever seen. My father had it done years ago by a professional and it blocked out all the weather with no rubber strips to wear out. It involves installing an aluminum strip on all edges of the door and also the door frame. I checked RUclips and no one has posted a video completely explaining how to do this. With your ability to teach so well, I thought this would be a great project that everyone could use. It just seems to be a lost art because it involves cutting grooves into the door to install the aluminum strips. Have you ever seen this? Hopefully I explained it well enough.
Do you know who makes it? I would like to search it
@@squigglyphrank9348 I’ll get you a link this week.
When ever i feel like i did a bad job on my home Reno and painting, i always remember the hotels i have to stay in because of work,
A video listing the typical corner cutting that many builders do to cut costs. this would be very valuable to everyone.
That space is gorgeous
Have any videos on painting over wallpaper?
Or removing painted over wallpaper?
Also, this is the best channel I’ve found on RUclips. Regardless of topic. Thanks for organizing so well
Always great information. Getting ready to repaint the complete interior of my house do all these tricks are great to know.
Glad to help! Cheers john!
Always learning things...every time :)
Thanks Jeff!!
Hello
Happy to help! Cheers Mary!
Thanks again Jeff! Great instruction
You bet!
Thanks for the brush washing tips. I would use a brush for 10 hours and wonder why my paint job looks like shite lol. Game changer!
Cheers
My husband and I really appreciate your videos. You remind him of Mr. Red Green (no offense, my husband loved that show), like he used to say: "if the ladies don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." 😅 thank you for all the valuable info 💛
thank you so much. Sir, you're a golden heart. share knowledge is not easy. there a lot of people use this site for scam viewer.
True with criticizing work, framed art for a while for my grandparents who did some of the best work in the industry. I see the work other people do and try to keep quiet. Noticed a piece at a tattoo shop, I noticed the framing on it and had a feeling it was my grandparents. Sure enough it was one of the last jobs my grandfather did.
Jeff, you offered some really great tips throughout this video. Great place to start before you begin your home project.
I really love how everything is coming out. I saw the depression under the base board and thought he is too meticulous to leave that showing. Then of course he mentioned he is going to go fix it. Now for me, I would have left it or caulked it up if it was my house and called it a day. Once again, well done
Great Video Jeff
Thanks 👍Cheers Nemo!
I found these in 5-gallon:
KILZ drywall interior water-based wall and ceiling primer: $80
Valspar Pro Interior PVA water-based wall and ceiling primer: $58
Zinsser Bulls eye 2 interior or exterior multi-purpose water-based wall and ceiling primer: $106
Is the Zinsser primer worth the price?
i watch all your videos. can't watch this one , i am color blind . good job as always. thanks for all the info.
I am absolutely a pro at cutting corners
Lmao
It is really wonderful to learn from a real pro like you. Thanks for your your efforts. Are the products you mention available in both Canada and the USA?
I'd like to paint the baseboards and crown molding as well as the window frame before I install them it's a little bit more cumbersome but it works better for me.
bloody legend! just got my first property, keen to try these tips!
THANKS =)
Very good video with great pointers, thanks Jeff!
That information sounds good. I didn’t know you can put dish detergent on he brush. I was always to buy paint remover to remove the paint from the brush.
Such great information! Especially how to wash and care for a brush. Priceless! Thank you!!! What’s the name of the brush?
simms. Cheers!
Jeff! I never start a project without seeing if you have a video on it first. If the two walls are the same color where they meet on an edge, can they be rolled or you still need to use a brush?
I am thinking avoid it so that you dont have paint driping down the corner.
Awesome video, I have some instructions for my contractor! Thank you!
Great video, Jeff. You answered most, if not all, of my painting questions and provided some great tips. Thank you.
Hmm
please make a video how to fix squeaking hardwood floors
I do this using a regular 3/8 nap roller that has most of the paint rolled out of it already. What happens is the roller wool flattens out and prevents paint from getting on the other wall for an outside corner. The trick is to know exactly how much paint you have in the roller and how hard you're pressing. Works every time for me.
Thank you for the most cryptic ass suggestion ever. Its neat to know you people exist, but not helpful for a beginner wanting to feel less scared haha :)
I didn’t know I could wash the brush while still painting. I’m trying to be more careful about putting the brush too far in the paint but I always land up with it in the gold part of the brush. It’s a pain in the butt to clean when I’m done. I use a wire comb to get a lot of the paint out but it still takes forever to clean. Thanks for the great tips as well!!
Jeff, you are the best!
Nate is a Top RD !!
Jeff is Awesome!
Can you do a video on how to properly blend in touch-up paint to fix small damage etc.?
You paint the wall.
Top tips 👍
Cheers!
Jeff - I am in the process of doing house renos. I previously painted the ceiling with Behr Ceiling Paint. It is HORRIBLE. I am a good painter, and this paint makes me feel like I'm the worst. Do you think it would be ok to put the Ultra 7700 on top of the Behr? I have to buy something tomorrow and paint this weekend before the floors are installed.
😍😍😍 my #1 handyman crush
No Black Eye this time Jeff? lol. Extremely useful video though!
Thanks!
Great vid! Thanks for posting!
You forgot something really important and while I never allowed my [first] husband to wash paint brushes again...wash the sink out. He’d leave paint residue everywhere!.
That’s the job for the cleaning lady.
@badlandsgecko You shouldn’t be washing brushes into the sink anyway. That paint makes its way into the local waste water treatment facilities and creates problems in our drinking water.
@@davecoles8818hence the “first” husband 😂
You have great information on your videos! Do you have any videos about painting stained trim white?
Can you show how to properly clean a brush that’s had gloss paint on it please xxx
Wire brush. Lay the brush on a flat hard surface and only ever wire brush it away from the handle as to not damage the bristles. Use water and dish soap if it's a water-based paint or paint thinner if it's an oil-based paint. If it's a shellac use ammonia.
Great information! One question... How do you paint rounded sheetrock?
I was recently told that "alkyd" paint for trim is more durable and slightly slower to dry which supposedly helps minimize brush strokes.
Would love to hear your opinion!
This dude's perfectionism makes me sick
Great video. Thanks Jeff.
The best channel, tanks for shearing 👌👍
Thank you so much 👍happy to help!
Great info. Thanks Jeff.
Yellow frog tape up the corner, bring one colour into the the other for a 1/4 perfect line looks mint I do it every time
1/8 inch*
Is the acrylic content similar to acrylic art/craft paints? I had a high school art teacher drill into us to "never rinse acrylic paint out of a brush with hot water" because it would, according to him, begin to melt the acrylic content and you'd be left with hard plastic. So I've been scared to rinse a brush with anything but cool water. Seeing you use warm gave me flashbacks, haha. I'm happy to learn I don't have to freeze my hands when cleaning brushes.
Can you please do a video on double panel windows. Ones where the seal has failed and you got moisture inside. Not just replacing the glass for new DIY refurbishing.
Nice ceiling mark at 15:08 🙂
Love you paint tips but I still hate painting😂 I still wear almost as much as what ever I am painting. Cleaning your brush, mine even will have paint on the silver and wood parts.
But I do appreciate the tips
as long as you keep the bristles soft the handle can look as experienced as you want. Cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY lol perfect because I have been using it over a year!!!!
But I will be washing it in between that will be a game changer!
Coffee and finishing the ceiling!
I love Jeff's sigh :)
Thank you for all your tips about painting , when do you have to use all those painting frog tapes from Lows ?
How do you paint and avoid stains on your ceiling from water leaks around the ceilings
I had no idea, thanks
Happy to help
I am loving the baseboard moulding. Could I get the information on it?
If you used a bright white light. Like an LED light bar, do you think it would speed up looking for imperfections?? Like car paint booths at auto factories use??
I'm struggling with cutting corners. If I have to cut 8 feet, I do 6 feet good and then something bad happens... 😂
You need to release some merch like "And that's money in the bank" or "Resist the temptation" or "This is madness"
Not sure if you’ll get this being that it a year old, but…I live in the Pacific Northwest and for some dumb reason every house built here has this texture called Orange Peel. I am pretty sure that sanding that wall would pretty much mess them up. Any words of wisdom for me? Thanks and awesome video.
Wow thank you!!!
Subscribed even though I’m a DYI hime owner and Pro photographer.
So questions?
Egg Shell does come 100% acrylic?
Also
My wife wants the ceiling the same color as walls, a very soft light off white.
I did this precious using eggshell and the vaulted ceiling shows dark wide feathered lines at the studs.
Is it OK to get ask for tinted ceiling paint mix same color ceiling flat paint?
Thank you again.
I don’t like painting but looking forward now to doing our interiors and getting a decent job with your training.
Scott
Really great video 👍🏻
I used flat paint on my ceilings and they are just awful to try to clean fly dirt off. So I did my living area over again in a semi gloss and I'm so pleased with it. The room is so much lighter and it's so much easier to clean. I know it goes against all advice but I guess it comes down, in the end, to what makes you happy. The bathroom ceiling has flaked and peeled in two places and I worked so hard to get it right by buying paint especially for the bathroom, carefully cleaning and undercoating. Grrr. Next time I won't bother with the expensive paints. Maybe I did something wrong along the way but what a pain. It feels like I'm on a treadmill. Ceilings are not fun!!!
That Wall color is really looking good - what is it called?
