Came here bc I had the EXACT picture as a baby above my bed 30years ago....learned more about painting in this vid and now going to paint a wall 🤣

Just learned the hard way. I painted my kitchen last winter. Touched up a few spots after removing an outlet cover (which tore up the first applied paint in the winter) and the new touchup paint went on differently. Shadowy. Just realized painting in different temperatures will yield different results

Great explanation of what happens over time. Thank you!

@@mchalespaintersinc.4159 Hi McHale - thanks for the video. For larger patches (4'x4' on a large, difficult to paint wall), what would you recommend? I'm thinking of doing just a section of the wall with a roller floor to ceiling. If you agree, should the roller start/end lines be feathered with a brush using a similar technique? Thanks!

Very helpful!

Great tip! Never heard that one before.

would adding water reduce the sheen of the touchup with eggshell of an old wall if use leftover can of original

Please tell me what color that wall is I love it , Thanks

My painter used a roller and then of course cut with horizontal brush marks on some dado rail. How would you get around this.

You might know the answer to this (??) I live in an apt. The walls in here are white or off white, flat paint in every room. We are not allowed to paint in here. When there's been a mark on the walls I'll try to clean it, however the paint comes right off when it gets wet. No matter what product I use and no matter how gently I'm trying ti clean the walls, it's almost as if the paint melts off. At times it almost seems like the drywall underneath comes off too. Is this from not priming the walls or something? Colors also transfer, a pair of black gloves when worn touching the wall leave a black mark, I used a red dishtowel at one point to gently wipe something away & it left a red mark. I'm at the point where I've told everyone here to just not touch the walls at all. I'm not sure now how to even clean them if the paint comes off if they just as much get a drop of water.

I knew it your right its the sheen. What if you use a roller 🤔

Hi, The shitty painter I hired left cut-in brush marks and also fiber boogers on wall from rolling Semi-Gloss on Non-Textured Smooth bathroom wall. After wall dried, I tried to correct by sanding the boogers out then proceeded to use a Purdy White Dove 1/4" smooth nap 4" long roller to touchup the 10 areas. After drying, NOW I see the paperback sized rectangle roller marks all over the wall, even though I tried to "feather" the rectangle with the roller to avoid lines. Any advice on how I can clean this mess up from step A to Z?....

I wish I saw this yesterday! 🥴😬

I just built a new house with white walls and during the move in we got some marks on the walls so this is really helpful to know (i would had done strokes without knowing). What type paint brush do you recommend for touch up painting?

@mchalespaintersinc.4159

So glad you found this helpful! For touch ups, you can just use the cheap kind or whatever you have. My go to is the Brilliant Finish brush 2 1/2 or 3 inch.

I have a wall i need to touch up at my house. my wife washed some thing off of it and it messed up the paint. Do I need to do the whole wall again? I still have the same paint but I don’t think I have enough to do the whole wall

You may not need to. If you follow the steps in the video and try out the method, see if it blends well. As I mentioned depending on the type of paint and how long its been on the wall, there is a chance it won’t blend perfectly. As long as you mix the paint well and try the technique in the video it is definitely worth it to try!

Is a satin finish easier to patch than others?

Hi Cesar, Flat typically touches up the easiest but it depends on the type of paint. Definitely worth a try to touch it up before repainting the whole wall.

Help, I am 14 and I had to paint my new room a few weeks ago. The matte brown paint looked great and still looks good. I did 2 coats of green paint on 2 of my walls and I saw dried fibers. It was in multiple areas. Primered. Then dry. Kinda. Looks horrible and flashes like hell!!!☹️ Like gloss and a halo around the edge. Tried different things and I feel like it is only looking worse. Yesterday I took the paint roller and rolled most of the wall and still see flashing. The room was painted a few weeks ago. The paint is glossy. Didn't pick out so idk. How do I fix the paint flash? I hate going through this and hate my life so much. What a mistake I am!

You are not a mistake! Congrats on being only 14 and trying to tackle a tough job like this; most of us adults find this type of work extremely frustrating too and we are not very good at it. I have made many mistakes painting recently. Good news is at 14 or 15, you can just put up some posters (lol). Or maybe paint all the walls in the matte brown. gl.

Wil this technique work to fix bad touch-ups that were done incorrectly? Flat interior paint, same color/sample left over from build less than 4 months old. Current touchups appear darker than wall.

Hi Natasha, Make sure to mix up paint thoroughly before attempting to try the touchup. If the different colour persists, it's likely a cheaper quality of paint and will require a repaint for the entire wall.

Hi Vijay, In my experience the best results for a small area is with the brush. The reason is that the area is limited so if there is a minor difference in colour or sheen from time passing the surface area reflecting that difference will be limited. If you have a larger area then a roller is a better option.

A small mohair paint roller should make a better job than a brush

It was difficult to see the results. It would have been nice if you would have zoomed in closely at the before touch-up, wet touch-up, and final result.

why not use a small roller?

How ya doing
