Painting Spindles with a Sock

[@darrenwheeler3548]

That's brilliant that one of the funniest things iv seen for ages love the bit about wiping the paint of your hands under your armpit class

[@mzreid6386]

Just put on a plastic glove first. For balustrades I use a towelling sports sock- more absorbant- and it's so quick

[@danielstanoch907]

Hello my friend, I'm a painter and decorator and hate spindles does it look good after two coats ?

[@laurenjamesince]

You mean two socks 🤣

[@theglobalvagabond3074]

Ok, that's enough internet for the day.

[@Kali5000]

Can you do this with acrylic gloss? Thanks

[@ceciliabaranescu3133]

Why not using disposable gloves under the sock in order to keep your hands clean ?

[@williamgorman893]

Or use a paint mitt that's wot they're made for

[@geoff521]

I know, I just dont get his approach.

[@DeeTeaDee]

Do I need to sand the paint thats on it already first? Its like..glossy white?
And then donI buy glossy blue??
So many different paints its so confusing 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@jassingh6923]

what you colour paint is that on the bannister?

[@andrealee5120]

I can’t wait to try this. I need to pair my balusters again. I want to paint my entire stair case black this time. I will put gloves first and slide the sock over it

[@monkeyface6139]

Why not dip your head in the paint and use your hair, that's what I do.

[@darlenegibson9686]

Hahaha !!! I love it!!!

[@iLL_Eaglez]

I do the same for security bars but I put on a glove before putting on the sock lol

[@amycooke7391]

No taping off of other surfaces?

[@decoratorsforumuk9036]

professionals don't need tape

[@badlefthook624]

I get this is a piss take, but why the fuck would you wanna make all that mess? Black as well. All over the shop.

[@geoff521]

I can't get over how messy you are when doing this, it's just going everywhere, amusing though, so thanks for that part anyway

[@MrDMc1981]

Sort of thing my mother in law would do, with awful results 😂

[@johnnyoldskool6504]

Over 20 years experience and you can’t put a plastic glove on before you put the sock on 🤷‍♂️🤣

[@TheBerkeleyBeauty]

Is this a joke?

[@sherrierichard2848]

Great idea but a plastic exam glove to put on before the sock…come on guys you always love to get dirty, but us ladies are a bit smarter. 😂

[@CustomDesignzShop]

You sir are a shoemaker 🤦‍♂️

[@xqvc.4oz]

😂😂😂 You gotta use a latex glove. 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️

[@Eleonore70]

Or use a latex glove...

[@darlenegibson9686]

Gee Wiz Dude... put on a glove....duh

[@ianliverpool6623]

Not a chance

[@aman2welly]

Put a plastic bag on your hand before the sock problem solved
