Honk out to my fellow Canadian! You forgot to mention that Flotrol is amazing to help wash your paint brushes. It really breaks down the dried paint on the bristles and kind of works as a Paint Brush hair conditioner. Brushes are restored to almost new! Love my Flotrol!!! Right... 2.5" Slanted paintbrush. Was just checking to make sure I was going to use the right sized brush. Thanks son!

Been painting for 40+ yrs, Navy guy and 2 rebuilt houses. Never heard of this stuff, can't want to try it! Thanks much

Discovered your videos today and I’m impressed! I’ve been doing my own home projects since the 1990s - so please consider it a compliment Sir.

Just bought a house and the trim is in need of some love. I could not be more excited to get in there and make them look fresh. Great videos! They really get me excited about home improvement.

Yes! Floetrol has changed my life. Started adding it for big trim areas - you want the paint still workable once you paint a big area and get back around to the “beginning”.

Great tips. Glad to see i already did most of them. I will add that if you have to come behind a sloppy contractor job like most new houses hear in Texas, after the first sanding prime with oil based kiltz. Then lightly sand again. Then top coat just as you said.

One extra tip is to use some paintable caulk on corner gaps and the top of the baseboard if its not been done, the finish looks more professional this way. (As a painter I still see lots of houses where this has never been done) Also my advice is that trim/base is the place to splurge on the most expensive paints - it covers better, has a nicer finish, and reduces the need for more coats while giving the best washability/durability. Unless you are a little more skilled, avoid waterborne alkyd paints.

@@yevgenikovelman3306 keep a wet edge and use multiple light coats. I'm good with a brush but far from a professional and didn't have any issues with waterborne alkyd. You don't need floetrol in these because they already have long dry times. (Also, floetrol isn't recommended in alkyd paint.)

Awesome video! Our home has the old style stained/varnished wood. But it was built in 1983 so it’s not the richer stuff from earlier days! I’m 60 now, but back when I was 20 I worked with a professional painter. He could lay out paint without tape. Really incredible work. He called it fluid line painting. He also told us that we were to load the brush and not swipe the edge of the can! Well my hands aren’t as steady anymore, so I’ll go with the tape. Also thanks for the reminder about TSP.

This was a great way to get the day started with a chuckle. Will for sure look for the additive next time we need to paint.

One added tip for removing the painter's tape to help prevent peeling the paint. Take a utility knife with a sharp blade and run it along the edge of the painted piece and the tape. Doesn't take much pressure, just the weight of the knife will work the majority of the time. It will help give a nice crisp edge and prevent the tape from pulling the paint off the piece you just painted. Also helps to keep the tape from tearing in the event you got too much paint on the tape.

Excellent information. I used to work for a stucco and plaster company. We had to cover everything unless it was dirt on the ground. Many times due to bosses telling us to hurry up. We had to pull tape while the material was wet. The finish is the thickness of the aggregate. When we pulled tape. We would start at one end and get a couple of inches free. Grab the inside corner and fold it back forming and angle and pull the edge at an angle. There is only one point of release right at the bend. This way the finish wont pull off. I learned it this way and it works for me. This works on texture also.

I’m taking a break right now as I’m painting my bedroom. I’ve seen several videos on painting and the one thing I read over and over is to buy a good brush. I was guilty of purchasing cheap brushes in the past, but this time I got good ones. I can’t believe the difference! The paint went where I wanted it to go and not on the ceiling or baseboards. I’ll never buy cheap brushes again. After taking off the tape the wrong way, I now have to touch up in areas where the paint came off. Lesson learned! Thanks for the info. After getting the liquid stuff you mentioned, I’ll start my baseboards. 😊🙏🏼🌷

@The Funny Carpenter. Thanks for the tip about Floetrol. I'll have to give it a try for those times I really need and don't want brush marks. I've seen so many bad paint jobs where the painter (homeowner) had no concept of paint leveling. The brush marks and paint drips (didn't pull nails off the wall) are so bad that no amount of sanding will get them out. Had to skim coat over and at least the roller naps I use for painting leave a much better finish. Hope you and your family stay safe and well.

@@TheFunnyCarpenter actually very soon somewhere on his cardboard slider, he will get a buildup of paint that will eventually find it way on the floor. So your taping is a professional approach thats foolproof. Also bringing the tape from the floor about a 16th of and inch or less up the baseboard will never be seen and create a barrier so the paint wont seep under tape and make its way to the floor. Unless you can slide the taping under the baseboard as some baseboards are slightly raised above a hardwood floor if they were done right. Doing it this way, you have to tear tape into about 18 inch pieces at a time to place under baseboards, but its worth the extra time to keep paint from getting dried onto the floor from seepage.

Control works great. For one is adding a half pint to a gallon if the paint is thick and you can use your gallon without thinning with water. Flowtrol will slow dry your paint when using outside when your surface is a little to warm. Latex paint only.

Another tip. I've got burned by this many times. Depending on the tape used, run a utility knife blade where the tape meets the baseboard top if it's on the wall. Will prevent paint from peeling off. Also, the frog tape is water activated I believe even though the package doesn't specify (people argue with me about this all the time.) When the tape is first put on, get a wet rag and run along the tape, which will help the tape adhere to the surface. Also, prior to putting the tape on (I think this was in the video) ensure all surfaces are clean, I like to get rubbing alcohol on a rag, wipe down the wall and the baseboard (wall where you will be taping) let dry, then install the tape, then run a wet rag over the tape. Even if the water on the rag/tape does nothing, it makes you feel better.

Thank you for advice, great video...

Flotrol for water base and Chemtrol for oil base. With patience, a steady hand, premium brushes and many years of practice I rarely use tape especially if there’s little contrast.

Love those Silver Tips, well worth their weight in Gold. Purdy's are nice too. My old boss was so anal about baseboards and me teaching the teachers who would come paint during the summer with all the waves and repainting that I hated to do again; going over their work over and over and over. Especially Inside Work, imagine having to sand walls because they have roller marks because they did the work for the roller and pushed the paint out the sides. Painting is a Art interior and exterior. It is very rare that I use tape and using a leveling agent is the way to go even if you have been painting for years. It looks so much cleaner.
