Chris thanks again for all the help. I haven't met a painter pro or DIYer in years who hasn't been helped by your content. Honestly, there's probably hundreds if not thousands of a new generation of painters who are learning from the work

Thank you for watching

I'm glad to see Chris is painting again! He was a tool salesman for a while there 😂 but nice to see he's back with a brush in his hand!

Hey Chris, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I'm about to paint the exterior of my house and I learned a lot by watching your videos. Now I'm hoping for the best😂

Thank you! Your video is of great help! You are very good at explaining everything step by step! Good teacher! 👏👏👏

Thanks! Awesome tip on ladder feet/spikes! Learned something new today! Nice video!

I'm not afraid of heights 😂 ,I'm not even afraid of falling . It's the sudden stop at the bottom I'm scared of 😂😂. Enjoy the content. Keep it up .

brother, take the rope end that's tied to the lowest rung, around the rung over and tied to the same rung as the other end of the rope is tied to. you can raise and lower the ladder and no loose rope to trip over and tangle on things. love your video!

One of the best channels on yt right here You make it fun!

Looks great brother 👍

So many tips, thanks and stay safe on ladders.

Two more ladder tips: Set your extension ladder against a wall with a 1:4 offset ratio. If your ladder is 4' tall, set the ladder base at 1' away from the wall. If your ladder is 16' tall, set your ladder base at 4' away from the wall. And try to keep your hips within the vertical rails of the ladder when working. Be SAFE everyone! God Bless!

Thanks brother always learn something new from your videos and I've been painting 20 years. Good job

I really enjoyed this episode guy! I learned alot of good tips especially with you rolling the eave and what you were using to hold your paint and roller while on that tall ladder. And you're like me i like to hold my ladder and my bucket as well while up there and don't care much for those ladder hooks because i wanna know where my paint is, hehehe and my other hand and that ladder is.

nice to see some one do stuff by the book. a true pro.

While back I was installing some exterior ductwork on a metal building…. So I wrapped the ends of my ladders with the silver metallic bubble wrap we used on ducts - worked great for not scratching the metal

Stay shredded brah‼️‼️💪💪💪💪💪💪

Good video

Hi Criss you lucks like profecional i done a facia whit sprayer and I used tip 211 and did one day the entire. House I know every body works diferent any way thanks for you videos you are a profecional

When you’re in a close built neighborhood like this one you’re in here, what do you do about overspray on the siding areas? I’ve always been afraid of getting paint on the Neighbors house.

Is it necessary to primer the siding and stucco before you paint the exterior of the house?

Hi Chris, can I spray paint over old bottle dash stucco? What kind of paint would you suggest?

Do you ever spray the fascia? I have everything masked (except the shingles) to spray the fascia and soffits. I heard you say you roll the fascia. If I want to spray the fascia, can I mask the shingle edge with paper and clothespins? Because we likely need Kilz and 1-2 coats of paint, I just want to spray it on. Is that a bad idea?

In your opinion, what is the best paint to use for soffits and fascia? Edit: And thank you so much for this video! I have a 4,500 swift home and I know I could do this except for the height of my home in the back in one area. I’m really not sure I could reach it. I don’t believe they make ladders that tall lol. And I’m scared of heights that high too. I am getting a new roof and new siding but the soffits and fascia will be quite a bit more money and I considered painting myself. Ugh...doubt I can do this though just because of the height.

How do you control for the over spray mist that’s taken away by the breeze?

How long can you leave the paint in the gun before it clogs it. I noticed in the video it looked like you had your gun loaded but would use the roller and brush then come get the sprayer

@kapnkerf2532

4 жыл бұрын

You can actually leave paint in a gun overnight. You only need to cover the paint can up with plastic wrap or something. But if it's for a few moments, it's usually not a problem. You just don't want to leave the gun under pressure for extended periods. Just my amateur 2 cents from painting my cabinets.

Do you do two coats on soffits?

At 13:29 you are caulking and seem like you proceeded to paint over the caulking right away. Are you using some kind of caulking that allows you to do that? I bought Big Stretch caulking and it says to wait 4 hours before painting. Thats a long time if I need to get the job done the same day. Can you tell me what kind are you using or is it ok to paint over it even if it says to wait.

Question for you PROs....I have a house with old metal siding and the epoxy coating is chalking. What do I need to do to prep it? If you hit it hard with a pressure washer most of the coating comes off but it still isn't a stable surface. If you rub it with your hand afterwards, your hand still gets white.

ladder boot

Hi, with your videos i painted my house yesterday thank you. I started in the side of the house to practice, that wall came out very bad, the other part of the house came out actually good. I did have issue with paint spotting/flashing, not sure what the actual term is, but its a 14 foot high wall, and i can see lines. Any suggestions on how to fix it? My theory is that the weather was to hot causing it to dry to fast, and also it was just hard to reach with a 8 foot ladder.

@oskarbjornstad877

4 жыл бұрын

Ronald Cruz you have to keep a wet edge. What that means is you can’t let the paint dry then go back over it. This is especially true with satin type sheens and dark flat colors. Lighter flat colors you can cheat a little. What I do is I’ll follow whatever board I’m painting from start to finish. So this house for example I would paint 2-3 rows of shakes at a time and move horizontal until that row is finished and go back and forth, from top to bottom, until the wall is complete. Work in the shade if possible so you have more time to move your ladder(s) across before the paint dries

So by looking at your intro, I see that you've done all the walls with the light colors without caring too much about the overspray on the windows trims and then paint the trims with a darker color and then be careful about protecting the light color with enough masking. I had to bite my thong about that basic concept with the juniors I was working with.

I’m hot just watching all that time in full sun

I didn't know you were afraid of highs

good job i also make painting videos

I like to use an old pair of socks on my ladder mittens

Great Video, always professional and knowledgeable, I only wish you would give your audience a ball park figure range (6k 8k 10k) depending on Your region and prep level for the project so people can better understand what they expect to pay for a job at this level, basic, med, high and difficulty and Results. I say this because, I'm also in this profession and there no industry Standard for what people expect to pay for different levels of service. There no painter union or United Painters of America.

Brother if your actually good and busy u can charge pretty much whatever within reason. What’s killing our reputation is guys charging a lot saying they’re good then doing 0 prep and the house looks great for a week before it starts peeling again then the next guy who fits there (me) has to do twice the prep work and has to charge twice the price and customers thinking the good ones are screwing them over. I apologize for that rant from WI

Oskar Bjornstad , exactly! Completely agree! I got a few bids on my house. I asked for clarification: how, when, what kind of paint or caulk, pressure washer psi,etc ... Then I asked for the steps I thought were necessary on old cedar siding prep and more prep than bids showed. Got No, No ... no one wanted to scrape peeling paint at all. They just wanted to spray it without any prep- crazy! So I am watching Chris’s videos, got his tools and doing it myself! I have to teach all summer two university classes to afford to paint one house according to these bids and getting a quality work I learn from Chris’s videos. Professionals stop by and say I do too good prep no one would do - o well, I want to live in this house for many more years! And all this exercises make me so strong! Thanks for your comment!

@@OrionConstellationHome I would use a Turbo tip on the pressure washer at minimum 3000 psi first to break off the old paint as much as I could, obviously this type of prep work is time consuming and labor intensive, so price will reflect that and most painting services or painters dont like to get into this kind of restoration, since it alot of work and time involved to just get it properly prepared to prime and painted with all the corrections needed to make a paint project look great, some owners dont want to pay the cost and also expect that this type of preparation to be done and not willing to pay for wood rot damages and repairs before it can actually be painted. Most will move onto a easier painting project to make faster money.

Amazing skills to do all the work you do from a ladder. Personally I wouldn't work off a ladder when painting so high. A ladder is really only meant for access not a working platform. Scaffolding is much safer and better to work from.
