I’m taking the plunge in painting my house… first time attempting(😵)!! I’ve watched several of your videos already and you have helped in giving me some great tips… and building my even of confidence. I wanted to thank you and your staff for providing the great videos that will eventually get me across the finish line!!
Free tools. I have nothing to lose!
I've done my share of DIY painting and I wish I had gotten your tips back when I did my whole house. The tips, techniques and recommendations you provide are greatly appreciated. Your videos are well done too. I also appreciate your gospel references that pop up from time to time. Please keep up the good work.
You need to have sandpapers all the time when you paint. 90% prep and 10% painting!
Charlie Lee you’re right dude !
@@seabass22 - This is 2021, who the hell has a "den" anymore? Who are you, Mike Brady? Do you smoke a pipe in your "den?"
@@Fucknuts4u It's probably called something different now maybe a spare room.
@@frankthetank1369 - Maybe but who the hell still calls it a den? It's creepy and ga.y!
@@Fucknuts4u who the hell calls themselves fucknuts?
Just a simple, long-time DIYer here.
I do have some good dropcloths, but a simple non-leaking solution I've also used is an old shower curtain (which typically come available when you repaint a bathroom!).
Additional tool suggestions: (1) a one foot wood extension - I find I use this much more often than the longer, adjustable poles I have, especially for small jobs. (2) a 1" diameter mini-roller - together with the short extension, this is ideal for painting behind toilets or old radiators where a regular roller is just too wide.
Good tips, thanks for sharing John!
Free tool
Hey, thank you. Im just starting working for myself and i really appreciate the tips you freely gave out. Have a great day and live free!
Love your videos man - I’m an industrial painter at the port of portland; I blast and paint ships. As I have desired to learn more about residential, and work towards being effective at painting interior/exterior of houses, I came across you!!!
Great material, very clear - it’s apparent that you care about the work you do.
I've been painting for 15 years, I'm definitely familiar with the tools minus the last one, I manually brown paper baseboards or windows and have to tape them so thanks for showing me that tool, will be on the lookout for it!
My favorite DIY channel. God is good, brother.
Thanks for watching and supporting!
Free tool. Love this website. I have learned so much as an amateur do it your self painter. Your tips and tricks have helped so much that I now can paint without using much tape for cutting ceilings or around the baseboards. Thank you so much.
Am just starting.The utility room and saw all my defects of painting, "Free tool".Loved all your 10 professional tools. Thanks..
free tool. I would suggest the paint comb as well. It helps me keep my brushes bristles straight when it comes to cleaning.
awesome tool!
Home Improvement How To's what size tip do you use for spraying interior wall with a airless ?
Jay Smith very true, I use this tool all the time. Don't for get the brush spinner tool, it spins out any paint left behind
Yes, Wooster makes a great one with a comb and wire brush together. Ideal for cleaning a brush to look like new.
I've owned the same Hamilton brush comb for over 7 years awesome little tool
Hello from Tampa,FL!!...Thank you for the great advice! After 16 years of having a residential cleaning business I am now starting a house painting business...I have always liked painting and the jobs I did for cleaning clients on the side all said I should be painting for a living...so I'm taking the plunge!! Now I am looking at videos like your's to know what to buy... So far I have done a few interior small jobs and realize I don't have the right tools!!! Now I know what to buy thanks to your videos!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching Chris!
Chris Reed Could I message you my email? I would like to know how much it cost you to start the painting business in Florida .
I've been getting my house ready to sell and your channel has been so valuable with tips that have made the process easier. Thank you for freely sharing your know how!
Glad to help, thank you for watching :)
Free tool 😄! Starting a painting in NJ and enjoying your videos very much. Thank you!
#1 way ive seen painters get fired is by not using a drop cloth or properly prepping there work. there is NO exceptions to being clean and protecting the rest of the job as you paint. it is a habbit you should develop and do without thinking.
Yes!
100%
john brady specially when you paint a $50 million home of the Miami dolphin owner
Painters have to clean up behind everybody else too.
@@SeemsFutileNow ay man to that brother
I always have my air mover fan with me, dries the walls fast for recoats and great for drying drywall patches!
You can tell this guy loves what he does. It’s nice to see a man passionate about his work.
Thanks🤙
"Free Tool" Just remodeled my house and ended up painting it myself. Used the majority of your videos for guidance and finally finished it tonight. I still need to work on my cut-ins, haha. That caulking trick with the sponge helped me out tremendously. Thanks for all of the videos and will look forward to more in the future.
Glad to help, thank you for watching :)
I love your channel. Your a great help to us all, thank you for taking the time to show us all your methods.
glad to help
Good video! I have all the tools you featured here. here's one of many tips I use all the time. when applying a lot of patch work, sometimes touch-ups are necessary. for second or even third passes to fine tune some mud work, I mix my mud, then add a small amount of chalk-line chalk to the pan. I use blue or yellow (never red!). I keep a bottle of refill that lasts forever! only add enough to change the color sightly. you can plainly see your touch-up patches from across the room! be careful! don't add too much! it makes 45 min mud dry a lot faster, as it changes the chemical make up of the new grayish mud you now have. good luck!
Awesome tip! Thanks for sharing :)
Free tool.
Appricate the production and straight forward demo. Including tool description was also very helpful.
Free Tool! Always appreciate your videos. As I start my own painting business, your content has been invaluable. Thank you!

Eric Mackey lol definitely
Eric Mackey ,na coffee and cookies first😂

i still remember buying my first shockproof dewalt radio. some rep was showing it off at home depot or something and he threw it in the air while it was playing and charging a battery and it just bounced around. i bought one on the spot lol
ahahahahahahaha
Thanks for the tips. I just bought a house and will need to paint ALL rooms and kitchen cabinets. Someone was in to sponge painting!
Thanks for watching Lynn!
Always nice to have a "free tool". Thanks for the vid.
Dude you rock! You have been so helpful as I am starting out my painting business as I move from actual construction. Keep them coming
Hey Chris thanks so much for these tips! Used the brush and roller covers you mentioned here and it made a world of difference! A good brush goes a long way:) your cut in tips help a ton to..by my second room I didn't even need to tape any more. The bucket was a game changer to. Thanks so much for the tips man!! Great job
Did you use a liner with the bucket? If no, how did you clean it afterwards?
free Tool. :D About to start a huge project on a new home for the family. Your videos will be a great help. Thanks. :)
Glad to help
Free tool. Love the videos. You were a invaluable resource when I painted my house last summer. Keep up the nice work.

When removing switch plates, never pry them off (unless it's absolutely unavoidable). turn your screw driver around so you can give the switch plate one or more taps with the handle., it'll pop right off. Also, remember to leave the slot of all switch plate screws in a vertical position. it's a small detail that people notice.
Nice tip
Weird, I've literally only ever noticed (or even heard of anyone noticing) the slots pointed the same way one time, in one house. And frankly, the only thing it caused me to "notice" was that it made me suspect someone with OCD had previously lived in it.
I must have OCD...
That's what I do too all the time. Keeps them dust free and the look of the switches and plug slots uniform. Haha
@@michaelhendricks9462 I didn't know to point all the screws vertically and got scolded at by the electrician. He was not even my co-worker / . \ So, now I know
Free Tool: I'm a homeowner and not a painter. The things that you covered about tools and painting was a great help. I went to a big box store to do research on tools and paints. Then went to a local paint store. The difference in quality of products was amazing. I opted to follow your advise and spend a few extra dollars at the local. you get what you pay for. Thank you for the vids.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching :)
Really appreciate what you are teaching. I retired from the Navy after 30 years, the one marketable skill I got from the Navy is how to paint, as long as it was ships side grey. Now that I am retired I have started to paint for friends, and now their friends... I now call myself Haggis Painting, we specialize in the Do it yourself job, you don't want to do yourself. Thanks for the help, makes my job a lot easier...
i love the blue bristle purdy 3" angle brush
Agreed :)
Paint Life TV blue purdy no angle

Thanks for posting Bro.
I like the essential tools list couldn't agree more, life has led me to self-employed direction, Small Job's lot's of painting involved. TY joe D.
"Free tool!" Also, thanks to Idaho Painter for your all these excellent tutorials. Greatly appreciated.- Robert

How about Pot Hooks? (Bucket Hook) clips onto the handle of your deuces.(2gal.cut in bucket) Hang your cut-in setup off of the rungs when working off extension ladder. Also hook in to top of A-frame ladders when resting your duece on the tray of a 6-footer, helps the new guys from knocking setup all over the place :)
Good tool to have, thanks for sharing!
We need tools to build, repair and maintain the mechanical world in which we live. In every home, there should be a good toolkit, in case something breaks down. Tools & Equipment e-web.top
5 &1 is my friend. I have that and a bucket, wet rag, dry rag, caulk gun, my 3 inch straight edge i can do corners good with out it being tapered Purdy paint brushes, wire brushes, rollers, dust brush, roller screen for my bucket, i have had my extension for about 15 years. haha then most of all painters tape. . God it has been so long.
Awesome, thanks for sharing Teresa!
Teresa Nanry are you a painter or DIY
Free tool, great help in my painting projects.
Brotha, thank you so much for these videos! Appreciate them more than you know 💯
good morning just wanted to thank you folks for your honesty about everything yeah man I make 20000 decisions a day about so many things that nobody else understands you folks get it what do I have to do to go to one of your classes I love my life I love the trade that I do I make so many decisions I can't turn away from it it's just a wonderful way I'd rather deal with paint brushes atmosphere texture substrate than dealing with people
Thanks for sharing and being with us!
I'm really surprised that a rollers spiner is not one of your tool must haves. Infant that would make a great video clean up and storage of rollers and brushs. Thank Man you always have solid advise that works well.
If only I could name every tool I keep in my van :)
because time is money and roller covers are disposable.
So I guess you don't use nice, quality rollers (which last quite a long time if taken care of, just like any other tool), and don't know how to clean them quickly.
Time is money? So is throwing away money. And takes me a lot less time to clean my tools than it does to replace them. I don't have to drive across town to clean a roller, but I do have to do so to get a new one. Oh, and also... gas is money.
My usual roller cost $10, and I can clean it in less than a minute.
If you're getting more than $10 per minute, would you mind telling me where I can send my resume?
Single mom. Never painted in my life. This video was a perfect answer to where to start. About to watch your playlist on how to prep and paint. THANK YOU!!!
Your welcome! Thank you for sharing🤙
I cant bare to ask my dad to help anymore about ti learn to do it myself pray for me
@@harriettubmanpickney2144 You can do it! 😊 I even had to watch videos on how to load paint onto a roller. That's how clueless I was. lol! But thank God for RUclips! I painted my son's room with the help of many videos on this channel and now I'm feeling pretty confident about taking on other painting tasks in my home. Just watch LOTS of videos first. You can do it! 😊
Another great video Chris! I have every told you mentioned- never go cheap on tools. As a DYI'er you got to have good tools. I actually broke a cheap roller frame once trying to take a roller cover off. Crazy. Quality rocks!
I prefer a 2' - 4' extension, much lighter and and you got a better chance of using it in a narrow hallway/stairwell.
Thanks for the tip!
James Bowling the pld school wood stick
James Bowling tape you brush to the pole an you never need s ladder
Only a real every day painter would know that. I free hand all my lines. AND ANGLE BRUSHES ARE TRASH LOL
you gave me some good tips thanks a lot brother I needed that
Thanks for watching :)
Your personality rocks! Great video! Retired navy guy just starting out and your videos are my go to help videos!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and paint passion! I am now ready to tackle my kids bedroom. Whew!
Thank you for the scripture. God bless you
Thank you for watching!
Free tool.
Man rule number one is to never buy cheap tools.
You don't have to get the most expensive but you shouldn't get the absolute cheapest.
Agreed!
Fully agree!
THANKS FOR THE INFO I AM WORKING ON MY DAUGHTERS HOUSE , SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR VIDEOS YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME SO MUCH , VAL
Free Tool! Just saw one of your videos about caulking and have been sitting on the bedroom floor (current project room!) and watched 5 videos! I have to go caulk and paint now!
Thanks for the tips
i like using the rubber handle brushes
They are great!
thanks for your reply i look up to you..your the type of person i hope to be soon as far as owner of a company
I didn’t know Lance Armstrong also did painting!
I haven't painted a house in many years. I find your videos very helpful in relearning the proper steps to painting a house.
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching :)
I just recently started watching your videos. Thank you for all the great tips and also the Bible verses. Every time I see one I'm looking it up!

Thanks Slime
I love the paint roll off buckets. Purdy makes one…so much easier to move around then the trays and less risk of splashing over the edge
I have gotten in over my head and am now having to paint the interior of my home. I moved in 4 years ago. I did not realize that walks get dirty like they do. While cleaning the walls I became aware of the terrible paint that was used - not only is it a color I dont particularly like, it is a thin coat and weak coverage. I am not a painter and do have a disability that affects my peripheral vision and depth perception which is a challenge to live with, esp if I’m going to paint! I began watching your videos after I ordered an Accubrush. The idea that it could work as well as is advertised would sure make my project a lot better snd the results acceptable. I want to give you props for your videos. They are well done and I’m glad to have found them. There is so much out there on video and it’s discouraging to watch and be left feeling nothing was learned and my time was wasted. Thank you for efficiently snd effectively addressing each topic. So my Accubrush just came in. I don’t know if I will even open the package. I have also purchased 2 other edgers as well. Maybe I’ll do a comedy video of me painting - did I mention I can paint decorative items snd crafts but to do the walls in my home ... it’s just not my skill gift. Stay tuned...I could be a very grateful student as the weekend progresses. Again, thank you.
Throw that pan away and get a bucket Thats what the "hook" is for on the rolling handle is for, You can hang your roller on the bucket Roller pans are an accident waiting to haapen
Good idea!
Arthur Morehead how do you dip the roller in the bucket? Does it cause excess paint to drip from side crevices?
Andy Dressler paint grid
Jacob Lee thanks! Just watched a video explaining what that was, and that makes sense. Good info.
Using the bucket for the roller is the best way, you can just push the bucket with your foot and it won't tip over also you can forget about reloading the pan all the time
Chris, what's your take on the Wooster Sherlock painting accessories [rollers and extension poles]?
We have had good luck with them
Ken Doe Sherlock system is great. Saves alot of time changing to different poles on the job, also you can push harder and not have the roller loosen. I use the short bodied roller (15°) that can be stored in a 5 gal or there roller bucket.
Ken Doe best system out there
love the wooster sherlock, i have been usi g the pro/doo-z rollers, are the purdy White dove similar or the standard to use?
Wooster sherlock stuff is great, i prefer their Silver tip brushes over their rollers and frames tho...
Thank you for sharing, as I long time DIY I'm learning more from your postings.
Free tool! Great tips and thanks so much for the great video.
nothing more aggervating then using a cheap roller frame. stay away from the cheap orange home depot rollers!!! LOL personally i work exclusively out of 5 gallon buckets with my 9" rollers. i dont have a problem using pans i just prefer working out of a 5. its easier and faster for me to move around as i paint. pans are an accident waiting to happen lol
Very much agreed!
Wassup bro, u right pans for rolling is martha Stewart shit, also lmk wats your opinion on angle brushes for cutting , I've notice alot of these videos use them.............i hate flat handle brush ,gatta b round handle purdy straight edge 2 me i can do 95%of my cutting
Home Improvement How To's We have a guy at work that steps in a rollerpan full of paint all the time lol
I agree . I've been a residential painter for quite some time. I never use a tray. accident waiting to happen is very correct.
braddah d I prefer a Purdue blue bristle 3 inch angle brush for all my interior cut ins. exterior brushes either a 3 or 4 inch flat out barrel brush as it holds way more paint
How could you forget RAGS/TOWELS HA!
lol, I don't know, I guess it's just a given :)
I'm sure you have seen those fools that have caulk and paint finger prints running all down the front of their pants. LOL, they can't come on my job looking like that. Paint belongs on the walls not on you. HA. Love the vids, keep um coming.
Thanks
free tool! I love watching your videos as i just started my own business.
Free tool. Love the channel. I worked for Sherman Williams for a summer in college learned a lot about painting. Currently own I think all the 10 tools except the extension pole and the masking. I always recommend canvas drop clothes and metal pans. Don't buy cheap tools also applies to painting.
Just sprayed my garage with a Graco sprayer and about to start soffettes and trim. Painting is very rewarding work imo.
Thanks for watching & sharing Dakota!
I lost count on how many times he said "Actually".
I really have picked up so many tips from your videos. You have made my job so much easier for sure. Thanks
Free tool. 😎 Thanks for sharing your wisdom and expertise!

Love the tricks and tips. Free tool.
Free tool ! My first job was painting (and other stuff) at an apartment complex. The turnover at month end was a crazy time, getting the vacant apartments cleaned up and freshly painted in as little time as possible so new tenants could move in. I thought I was a fast painter then, but with the tips you have shown me I know I'm a better painter now.
Glad to help! Thanks for watching & supporting :)
Great video! We will attempt to paint our bathroom this weekend. Fingers crossed
