*HINGE HACK* I had 100 year old door knob plates that were painted over with decades of oil base and latex paints. Instead of using chemicals. I used an old crockpot(no longer good for cooking) with just water and let them slow heat most of a day. Most the paint came off with a soft cloth the rest just needed wire brush encouragement. I have pictures of the results.

If you are brushing/rolling, do you have some tips for minimizing brush marks/stipple? Thanks!
Been painting for around 35 years had some great success and plan on continuing until I die Idaho painter is giving me great tips I love it
Loved seeing this. Just did a trim job and did a lot of brush work on the trim. I tried the best I could and felt it turned out reasonably well, but it is hard to tell exactly what it should look like. Perhaps you could show close ups of the trim after it has dried to give people a reference so they know if their work is turning out when following these tips and techniques? Thanks for all the help and advice!

Awesome! I went thru the list of your videos a while back and came to the conclusion that you just don't ever brush on paint! Lol! I knew you did as an obvious paint pro but for whatever reason you didn't have any videos of you actually brushing trim. Your videos are awesome if you have an airless sprayer but I would dare to say that most home owners do not have airless sprayers . I had asked a long time ago in the comment section of an older video if you could make a video of you actually using a brush for trim. Thank you so much for releasing a video on this subject now!! Of course now it would be even nicer if you would make a video on how to get a brush mark free finish using a brush on trim!!?? Lol! Yeah , I know it would appear I'm never happy! Lol! But seriously I would bet a video on this subject would get many many views and be very popular! Just my two cents! Again thank you so much!

Advance is an awesome paint. I tried the reformulated Emerald Urethane from S-W this week. The satin sheen is much improved, but it still has that slightly gritty feel to it after it dries. Not as prevalent as before, but still there. No comparison to the feel of Advance after it dries. IMO. Great video Chris!

Friendly tip! Hi Chris, excellent video! One tip that caught my attention was when you mentioned the paint brush about it’s performance that you like a soft filament brush! The original Gooseneck had that blend but you suggested they improve to a Stiff bristle. You at that time gave the gooseneck a 4 star. We made the changes as your recommendations to get a 5 star! I as mention to thousands of Painters and DIY need different sizes of brushes and blends! SOFT MED STIFF. 2” 2 1/2 3. Kind Regards! The Gooseneck Guy! 😊Cheers!

Yes I love BM advance paint..although I admit I have not ventured past the OC-151 white since I'm pretty much in love with the white shade...The company I used to paint my cabinets used BM paint so when I needed to touch up spots later from normal wear and tear, I tried to cut corners and get the color matched with Behr paint...I did a test spot and it was not even close to the color or consistency...I went out and got the BM advance paint and now I won't buy any other brand..The advance is great for trim, cabinets and doors..I went with BM aura for walls ...One thing I have learned from this channel and other professionals is the extra few dollars on better paint and brushes..I used to buy the cheap paint brushes and rollers and would get line marks and not a flawless finish..Not anymore..I bought the Corner Roller plus for the ceiling that you recommended in another video and WOW...as far as brushes I love the Purdy Nylox and Zibra brand although I may try the premier brushes ...Your channel is my go to channel when it comes to painting..I hired "professionals" to paint my home and got drips marks and horrible job so I"ve had to go and redo their work using the advice and tips from this channel..,,Great store by the way..Your prices on most of your items are cheaper than if I bought it at amazon or HD..

Some instructional painting videos mention the importance when using a brush of laying off the paint in the direction back over the wet paint. For example if you want to lay it of upward in order to reduce sagging from gravity pulling the paint down which makes good sense, then you would want to start at the top and work downward toward the floor in order to lay off with upward strokes. Wonder your thoughts. Thank you so much ! Lots of great information here and all your videos.

Great video man, I'd rather watch somebody calmly paint things with a brush than somebody spraying them. I used to dislike seeing brush strokes on trims, and would try to get an even, automobile finish, as you say; but now I don't really mind them, they leave a rustic, handmade look, as long as they aren't too visible. Plus, I gradually realized that the only people noticing those things are pro's and DIYers.

Nice work. You work a bit differently than I do, but then, you're the professional, although I've done ALOT of side jobs and everything always turned out fine. However, your work is very relaxed and fluid. Can't really rush anything, though I have found myself racing the clock, especially when I had to use low quality paints provided by the customer or friends and family. I never thought of back brushing anything I would have rolled out unless there was a defective or in a place the roller wouldn't reach and had to blend the two methods in a tight space. Good tutorial, and I liked your four legged helper.😄 Cheers.

@@Avital4414 It's different. Most Cabinet doors are 5 piece construction (Stiles, Rail, Panel) and the center panel is actually "floating", and not solidly secured to the other pieces. That panel expands and contracts with humidity and temp changes, that movement can cause paint cracking at that caulked joint (Caulk is not glue). Whereas trim pieces are solidly fastened together (nails or glue), and therefore have minimal to no movement between the pieces, allowing both the caulk and the coat of paint on it to remain intact.

Ben Moore Advanced is a good paint, but I prefer Coronado Super Kote. Its like Advanced but much easier to work with and better coverage.
I I usually cut in the bottoms first can’t really see any flash at the bottom so you can move faster to keep a wet edge

Depending on temperature BM Advance requires 16-24 hours to cure before a recoat and if you’re painting before installation and handling trim or doors, they recommend a 3-5 days to fully cure and attain strength.
Going to have to try that Benjamin Moore. I use Sherwin Pro industrial multi surface acrylic and it dries too fast to brush trim.
Love the video! However, at around 22 minutes you can clearly hear a spray machine itching to get spraying 😂
I have trouble brushing BM advanced knowing how thick to brush it on. The self leveling works best when thinker but then I run the risk of drips on vertical surfaces. So is it better to do 2 thin coats? I also had trouble spraying it on vertical surfaces, there is such a fine line between spraying enough to cover and not getting drips. But it could be me, I am amature... any thoughts?
Hey Chris. Ive been using Dunn Edwards Aristoshield sprayed on cabinets and love the finish and durability. Trying to use the same on NEW trim but didnt feel like spraying. So i tried rolling and got a inconsistent sheen. some are up and i have to hit the nail holes and im going to try brushing a final coat on the front surfaces. im a little worried im going to create brush marks. what would you do in this case? the rest of the trim has zero brush marks (yet like i said sheen is off in some light angles). so i need to do another coat 100%
Would love to see some close up shots to see what kind of finish to expect.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me over the last 2-3 years, I’ve learned a great deal. I was using paint extender and S W emerald urathane, but it still dried too quickly. I’m a homeowner in the medical field so I don’t paint all that much and am slow. And after watching this I’m going to try Ben Moore advance and buy the soft filament brushes from your store. I was using the Purdy super stiff fat boy for all trim with some pretty nice results any thoughts? Thanks
Primer is a must
Absolutely awesome channel man. Do you prefer commercial or residential?
Wow so helpful!!
What’s your advice for making sure a door doesn’t stick when painting both the door and trim? Even though I wait the recommended time, my paint feels slightly tacky even after a month.
Question-I’ve always thought when painting cabinets - the cabinet doors should come off, for priming, sanding and painting. Isn’t this correct ? My painter is redoing my cabinets, and not removing them, taping the hinges though. Thoughts…….

There is no safe way to sand lead paint without a massive investment in PPE, containment barriers, venting, air scrubbers, and the time to learn how to properly use it all, or hiring the guys who already have that stuff. The only cheap and safe option is to leave the old paint there, prime and patch the bad spots with bondo or hot mud (depending on whether it is wood or drywall), lightly sand the patches (this is why you primed it first, so you don't have to sand into the old paint), prime and repaint everything. If it is bad enough, you can skim coat entire walls with a lightweight all purpose mud like Plus3, but be sure you learn how to properly prepare the surfaces for mud, or it might not adhere properly and start flaking off in the future.
Do you ever use additives in your paint? I just tried a product called floetrol last night gave me a couple runs that I could have prevented but man, it gave me a nice glassy finish. Used a 2.5" chinex brush, paint is Kelly Moore acryshield. This is tinted and I'm using it as a trim paint. Just curious.

Good rule of thumb, scuff sand these areas where trim paint got on your walls or other substrate where a lower level sheen is being applied afterwards. Especially if installing wallpaper, the paper won’t stick on glossy surfaces and can’t warranty the work. Hope this helps!
