The one thing I've learned to count on painting is no matter how much planning you do, and procedures you put in place you gotta be flexable as most every job throws a curve ball effectively changing your approach. Great video! We know you really care Chris. 😉

I feel like I’ve been painting for years after watching your videos. I’m currently remodeling my house and I’ve got about 2500 sf to paint. Following your examples everything is masked and all my doors are set up in the middle of the rooms with door hinge brackets holding them in place. Everything has been sanded and I have two wood paneled rooms as well. Plan it to spray the wood paneling, then doors, then trim with Zinsser BIN then go back over with latex semigloss. Roll the ceilings then the walls. It’s taken me a week to do all of this masking myself. I sanded and painted my kitchen cabinets with an airless sprayer and the finish is awesome. I’m hoping to achieve the same finish on the rest of the project, but it’s through your videos that I’ve become a better painter. Thanks Chris!

Curious if you think it was worth using spray gun knowing all the time it went into prepping your home oppose to using the traditional way paint brush and rollers? Airless sprayer-Longer Prep Time, less paint time, costly equipment. VS Traditional-less prep work, Longer Paint Time, less money spent on supplies.

Hi Chris. Just want to say a big thanks for your videos. I wanted to have a go at spray painting a house interior years ago and found your videos fantastic and gave me the confidence to buy a spray gun to have a go. I did this thinking it would be a one off and would never use it again, however I have used it to paint the interior and exterior of 3 houses since then. Just wanted to say a huge thank you.

Thank you! Planning to finally start painting my interior on my 1493 sq. ft. house. Been wondering how I would attack this. I have an airless sprayer, but wondered about clean up and finish. I was thinking about spraying the ceiling and power rolling the walls. Anyhow, great content and thanks!

Thanks for wearing clean hats and shirts!!!

Great videos, answer questions that not everyone thinks to ask. Thank you. Oh BTW my partner loves that you always use the word 'yo' randomly while giving a low down. Great stuff guys thanks again for the help.

Would love to see a video on painting a large ceiling that requires scaffolding to get to.

"If you didn't like it we don't care" love it. My scenario I would like your advice on is , white wood work, white ceilings and white walls. Sounds simple but I'm in the uk and our paints are not the same as US or even Europe. So paint for trim is not simple to find for a sprayer. Help with paint choice is the main area I need help with, as well as order. The UK is still fixated on oil based paint

Hey guys! Keep up the good work. I’ve been following you guys now for over 2 years. Have learned a lot. On the first of June, I have 2000 sq ft project where the lady wants everything whitened out. Also she wants the same paint for walls and ceiling(same sheen, eggshell/satin) , then of course all doors and trims. How would you go about it??

That’s totally my situation! Orange peel textured walls. Thanks a ton. I was thinking about spraying the whole house haha

Great Video. Please make a video or describe your process for the level 5 situation you mention. I am about to start a repaint of a remodel where the ceilings went from popcorn to smooth and the walls went to level 5. The trim is stained wood which will be scuff sanded and a new layer of clear applied. Very interested in your process for this situation? Baseboards have been removed for wood floor install.

Thanks!

Topics to discuss: In a new construction house with 4 colors : ceiling, wall, trim, and stained wood floor. questions I have are what gets installed when? hang doors with trim then install flloors or hang doors lay floor partially finish then trim .... What are your thoughts? thanks Jim

Let’s not forget the jobs where you go into a home to prep and you find heavy furniture that is full of the customers personal belongings. They want you to handle everything which I don’t like to do. I feel that it’s the customers responsibility to secure valuable items and remove framed pictures off the walls and book cases too. If I have to do it I’ll charge for the extra time.

Ya been in many houses like that and now I don't even go there unless it's virtually empty.

I have a ceiling in master bedroom where it looks like wallpaper was removed n left a white backing. I see seams over lapping . What can I do to hide them n paint over the rest? Thanks for your tips. I tried your tip on painting a straight line on baseboard with 950A caulk and it worked. I also used the 3M 2020 tape.

When you get to painting the walls after spraying. What do you do about the overspray of semi-gloss on the walls? Do you just paint the flat right over it?

If im doing ceiling, walls and trim, I almost always spray the ceiling first. As long as i got my floors covered (if needed) then im not worried much about some over spray since everything else below it is going to be getting fresh paint, and since ceiling paint is almost always pure white, it covers easily. but then I spray trim, then cut and roll walls.

Are there cases when you would spray the walls without touching the ceiling? If so, how would you prep the ceiling for that?

You mentioned in the video that you spray 2 coats on trim in 1 hr? What about dry time? I'm also interested in how fast can you go with dry time? Ceilings, walls, and trim?

I’ve seen you paint rooms with a roller and brush, and I’ve seen you spray. How do you decide to do one over he other?

What paint do you use when spraying walls? And what paint do you use to spray the trim? Are they one coat products or do the spraying machines apply enough product thickness to get a good enough coverage that one coat will do? Or do you need to spray multiple coats?

I am a first-time homebuyer and I have been watching your video's non-stop! Thanks!. The house will be vacant for 2 months before I move in and I would love for you to cover a scenario where discuss your "what to paint first" process for the following. Ceilings/trim/baseboards white and walls a second color. Also, I will be caulking all the baseboards. I would love to hear the fastest/easiest masking & paint process with rolling walls and ceiling, but spraying trim.

So this is what I was thinking and I'd love your expertise. 1: Lay dropcloth and 9" papermask floor of baseboard. Mask all windows, etc. 2: Airless spray ceiling, trim, and baseboards. Let dry. 3: Frogtape top of baseboards. 4. Cut in and roll 1st wall coat. Let dry. 5. Apply caulk to baseboards, 2nd coat of cut in, roll walls, and peel off frogtape all before caulk drys (3-4 ft sections at a time). Once again thanks for helping out our DIYers

If the ceilings appear to be clean and dust free, do you just go straight to painting them? Or do you automatically clean the ceilings first?

what is the sequence you recommend if you make new apartments with only 2 colors? spraying everything

What about houses that have crown molding all through out the house and homeowners want trim sprayed crown is same color as trim ?

I've watched many of your tutorials and ultimately they led me to purchase a sprayer to complete my basement. I sprayed it with primer and used a flat paint for my ceilings, also sprayed, back rolling everything, and so far it looks great. The Sprayer has saved me hours of work and with a newly built basement, the overspray is less of a concern for me so it was a huge benefit to use! I almost started spraying my walls but after watching this video I'm going to roll them, thanks for the advice.

I'm trying to find a video of your process of painting the walls after spraying the trim but I'm having a hard time finding it. What do you guys do? Do you guys just cut in around ceilings and trim and baseboard and roll or do you mask all the baseboards so you don't get any paint splatter on it when rolling. And after spraying the baseboard, if you do mask it are you guys using the method where you mask it and then caulk it because I feel like if you masked it and then cut it in you could end up with paint leakage onto the baseboard. I'd really like to know what your process is because I'm attempting to spray all the trim at a home in the next couple weeks.

Hey Chris, love your videos. Question, I’m a DYIer doing one room at a time. Could I spray prime my walls with the flat Sherwin Williams Eminence when I’m spraying my ceiling with it? I know from experience that the walls are a hard to cover tan color that takes at least 2 coats.

Great points guys. What's your process when spraying only acrylic?

My husband and i are remodeling a house and we are re painting all the interior. We sprayed the ceiling and walls and we are doing trim last because of the wood flooring and tile that needs to be put in. How do we go about prepping everything in the house now to spray the trim last??? There is no personal belongings in the house. I know we kind of did the painting order backwards its just kind of what needed to be done in our scenario and now im stressing on how to prep the walls and floor to spray the trim. Your response will be greatly appreciated!!

Besides opening the windows and using fans....any other tips on getting rid of the smell?

what semi gloss paint do you guys recommend to spray indoors trim and doors with greco x7 sprayer. last time i used 400 pro mar and i feel like it had so much dust its crazy everything was white.

Thoughts on the roller that hooks up to you airless setup?

What roller nap and inch length do you use to roll ceilings?

If you are painting everything in a room (brush and roller, no sprayer available), would start with trim, ceiling then walls?

Thanks for the video, can you tell me why I get a stream on the outside edges of the spray pattern fan at times?

What's a good recommendation for sheen or paint in a small window-less bathroom to repel water? The sink and towel rack constantly get splashed with drips, any good paints to help? BTW, I'm on board with spraying the trim, but boy are spraying ceilings hard! You guys make it look so easy. I have 15' vaulted ceilings I plan on removing the popcorn from, but I have a feeling scaffolding (to sand) and an extended roller are in my future.

If I would do it with a brush, it will take me well into next year!So how would you isolate the walls in this case?

@Paint Life TV we seal pavers everyday but have just started painting again. It's been a good 20+ years, but man it was a nice change of pace last week. Should have sprayed and back rolled, lost probably 2 days. But it came out great. We mostly did interior back it the day. Would have really liked to spray the window frames and grills. The last guy was sloppy. Which tape do you prefer for masking glass? There's a ton of heavy oxidation on the bronze frames in Florida needing a fresh coat. BTW if you need a good option for oxidation look up gutter butter Patrick Clark makes it. Perfect prep for gutters and metal roofing ect. 1 gal will go a long way.

If your spraying walls first and say it was like a dark grey colour and you obviously hit the ceilings a little bit, how would you get the white for the ceilings to cover when you come to spray them? And considering the ceiling line is not straight to use a shield to do ceilings first then walls

Great informational videos! I'm looking to paint all kitchen & 2 bathroom cabinets, and 1000sq ft worth of baseboards as well as casings and doors. I've looked at HVLP Fuji sprayer, but for that price point, I think I would prefer a Graco Magnum Pro x17 as I can use the airless sprayer to paint walls for future projects as well. Any particular reason why u prefer a roller on the walls?... I've painted several walls with rollers and I can usually see the "W" pattern if u look at the wall from an angle, no matter how many coats or what technique I use. I thought airless sprayers corrected that, so curious why u still prefer roller before I make the investment. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I would just put a piece of white painters masking tape (sticks better than the blue IMO) over the painted trim before cutting in with the brush, and I’d immediately remove it after cutting in (snatch it off before the roll even) because it takes 30 days for paint to fully cure and if you leave tape on freshly painted trim for too long it’ll pull the paint off. Or you could cut in with no tape and just caulk the joint and use the caulk as a finish line. That’s what a lot of spec home builders do. They spray everything one color and caulk the joints for a clean finished look. But yes, there’s no need to completely cover the painted trim if you’re only brushing and rolling the ceilings and walls.

@@mm-xk7pg tape is a good idea for preventing stipple sure, but every job has variables that need to be considered, some ways work better in certain scenarios. But any painter worth their salt dont need to tape any trim for a "razor sharp line"

HVLP is painfully slow my dude. the best alternative would be using a graco handheld since you save a ton of paint

I still spray the walls we just back roll behind the rig.

I have level 5 walls, what is the best option for painting while also maintaining the level 5 smoothness?

Spray

Well just in this scenario you left something out... you say you do two coats of spray, yet you say you pull tape and masking before coat dries.. how does that work when u have second coat to go?

@@walterpetersen8750 be nice if they answered this, as he states it in this video (2 coats on trim).. I also see guy going ahead and doing first coat walls, before trim painted..keeps it 5-6" above...not sure if thats how they do it...this way would only be 1 final coat on wall bottom that match wall color...??

Is it me or do they avoid q & a.? Isn't their bonding issues with semi gloss over spray on the walls when they paint flat over it.

Surley he means for walls only as you can cover in one coat no?

What is the color of the wall ?

Working for a new contractor this week. Ceilings will be flat, trim semigloss and flat grey walls. Contractor insists spray everything. Sprayed ceilings first. All the trim is old stained wood including the chair rails. He also insist on priming the trim with the rest of ceiling paint and spray walls then trim. Any problems I should look out for or suggestions? Thank you for everything you have taught me

Dustin Cribb do not prime the wood stain with ceiling paint it’ll peel. Dont spray walls. If his a badass painter he’d know, but obviously he doesn’t. I’d honestly look for another one

lilone I have only been painting 2 years and worked for a few different companies. It seems like everyone does things differently. Any recommendations on what to prime the trim with? And he wants to do walls then trim. Should I get him to spray trim and then walls? Or will the gloss on the trim make a different sheen on the walls around the trim?

hope you figured it out but only way to prime that nasty ass trim is with coverstain or fresh start oil base from BM. another option would be shelac but fuck that explosion hazard and smell. oil paint will make you high so get a pink filter mask when doing so
