If I was going to mask the face of an ugly chick before sex , should I use blue safe release tape or orange tape ?
Thank you so much, you're definitely pro and have great craftsmanship, I've been painting 22 years myself and have luckily got to be mentored by excellent painter's, most of them have retired or moved on, I actually learned the dust pan technique from a lady painter who was phenomenal, usually carry two maskers around with me and especially if I'm doing millwork, I have one masker with quick release tape and my second masker I have just blond tape, of course I use the quick release on walls and ceilings and then I can use the other masker on top of the paper without worrying about ripping texture off and drywall, Lord knows I've had to do unnecessary repairs many times. I also don't pre-tape, I was taught how to run a straight line and I pre-tape tape on top if its crooked or up in corners, I make sure it's not stair stepped because you'll see the millage build up, I make sure it's lined up with my masking, you pull your masking in the end and it lift's the tape at the same time, you're unmasking once , not twice. Thank you so much for everything you do for us. Sincerely Lorenzo gig harbor WA.
Very useful tips. I’ve been doing all the ones you mentioned and more for many years now. I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work. God bless you guys
Mind Blown! These are so help I cannot wait to try all these tips as I'm looking to repaint my interior home DIY.
This dude is the man!! Thank you for taking time out to share the info.
Been watching you a while now and really enjoy your channel, AND . . . really enjoy what I'm learning from you! Thank you for what you do and mostly your enthusiasm and pride in your craftmanship of work! You work so clean, consistently, organized, efficient and such a perfectionist . . . definitely what I call "the" PRO! I'm inspired by everything you share so happily! Just turned 60 yrs. old (my profile photo is 17 years younger now), but I'm still heavily doing DIY projects and soon to be doing my first ever repairs and painting on my 23 yr. old 2-story home exterior. I know I've got quite the monstrous project to tackle, but I know I can do it! Your TIPS are definitely very much appreciated my friend. I'm a petite lady, but strong as a mule still, and definitely have the tools, and better than average know-how to tackle any projects I'm willing to learn . . . not the average female for sure. As an artist and multimedia business woman, I not only enjoy your athleticism in your work -- because that is what it truly is, . . . but you also have such a sincere character about you that comes through on camera! ;-) I sure enjoy problem solving and building things too, and really enjoy restoration and preservation of things - - including recycling & repurposing. I have a great appreciation for SKILLS when I see it. ;-) Continued blessings and success in what you do, because it does make a difference to even someone like me who you may never even meet. YOU'RE AWESOME FRIEND!
Thank you for passing on your knowledge tips and tricks for the trades always learning something new from your videos

Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing those. I especially appreciated the last tip and making small bags for screws, etc. That was brilliant!! How about doing a video on all painting tools and what to use them for??
I love the vids bro I'm just starting my painting career and I'm trying to absorb every detail and tip that you have
I love the homemade dustpan tip. We always clean up after we paint inside a customer's home. I can't tell you how many times I couldn't find a dustpan.

Diaper or nappy bags are great for spot lights on ceilings before spraying. Pop them down ,pop them in, can be used on sockets and plugs to. Cheap and handy.
The last hack great idea for holding screws!
This guy is so smart! Great Hacks!
Good idea on storing screws etc. I knew about the other 4.

How did it go? I’m about to paint my bedroom, ceiling to floor. Not my first rodeo though, but I forgot how tedious it is. 😁
I've used the dust collection method But the paper bag was nice. Out of the 20+ years of Painting with my uncles that's the only one I've not seen ! I'm starting my own company [Nxt Generation Taylor Painting]™️ I bid on a 2345 sq ft home and after that was asked to go another from a GC, I've been praying I can hook up with his company and become his painter but anyway, great Channel and a awesome guy It's always worth it to get tips from a fellow painter. Thanks Chris and the PaintLife Crew. God bless
Fantastic!!!! Thank you!
You could use 14” paper on the fan blades and tape it to itself, full wrap around. Then u don’t have to worry about pulling paint off the fan, or using green tape.
Dude thank you for the reviews for tapes. My god I had to get the frog after the blue tape try. Frog tape does come off easy and in long piece and does a crisp perfect line. Thank you
Thanks a lot for the tips
We use alot of these little tricks. Good video!! 👍🔥

The only I never used was the dust pan hope I remember that I’ve spent time looking for a dust pan when I had a masker right there 😂

Chris!! I’ve been watching you for four or five years now and you’ve taught me almost everything I know on how to paint houses. I’ve watched every tip and trick you have. This week I sprayed my first set of cabinets. I taped everything off properly and all of the yellow frog tape came off the walls. I don’t think I’m gonna use that anymore. And even the blue tape that I used on my masking machine, came off once I sprayed the first coat of paint. Has this ever happened to you or did I do something wrong? I mean it didn’t all come off but random spots that I taped came up once it was wet. Help!!
I wrap my sandwich’s in 9” with frog tape. No I’m not joking. It works and it’s cheaper that sandwich bags or plastic wrap
Great Video
You the best. Sir

Hey paint life tv how does trick no 2 work if u tack the tape to the wall and spray the wall won’t it leave a stripe and also wouldn’t it throw the paper up when u go to spray under the rail? Am I missing something or wouldn’t that be a situation where it’s best to take the handrail off the wall?
Hey do one on your cabinet door rack and little booth thing in the background

Question Chris, I was on a job about 4 months ago .And mind u I've been painting for 27 years anyways my boss wanted me to use blue tape for door hinges , so I did that u know as well as I do when u do that and people keep coming in and out the tape will squash up and pull . I told him to check before spraying well he didn't and got paint on hinge . Of course he fired me. I was like y didn't u take door off. He's one that's in a hurry with everything . So in future please do a vid on the different kinds of tape if I were gonna do it that way I would have used orange tape not as thick and sticks better. I've been following u and John for a minute u guys have made me wanna go out on my own. I'm afraid to bid jobs though.
