The only way I know to get a 2k paint is by adding a hardener to a 1k paint. Do you care to tell us what you added to make the Gallery Series a 2k product?

customer probably got what they paid for don't feel one bit sorry for them a lot theses people are well off and are out to rip trades people off want a top job doing for peanuts sod them

They post an advert video but don't answer questions. Good idea to keep looking for a painter if that's an indication of their response to customers queries.

Oh my gosh - you just painted over all that beautiful wood? 🤢 I thought you were refinishing it, not ruining it.

It's neither 2K nor poly. It's a 1K acrylic coating. Why would you call it a 2K poly my guy

Great video, guys. Did you use a traditional airless sprayer or did you use an air over airless?

cost per sq foot?

I didn’t think you should caulk the end joints on hardie siding. A gap should be left and the cut end painted to protect and allow for expansion. The nail fixing flange does not hold the plank up it just keeps the siding flush against the timber batons. I’ve seen people plaslode nail these and crack every nailed flange which eventually fails. Something is very wrong with this installation and you’d need to strip off a length and see the batons and spacing and if the wall was flat and the correct nails were used and how deep they were nailed in, or maybe if screws were used and countersunk heads used which is a big no no with this cladding.

That’s not 2K

We live in Wisconsin. We replaced an entire side of our home which gets the most sun with all new fiber cement siding that company gave to us. We only did it a few years ago & already there are up & down cracks on some boards. How disappointing. My husband did a ton of research beforehand. Any idea? Thanks!

Very good advice Sir!! I painted, stained, stripped, sprayed cabinets for 33 years(retired now) and ran into all kinds of "HOMO" jobs ("Home Owner" DIY's) and what a mess it can be! People get fooled by Home Depot advise saying "and you too can do this" just to sell the products that are crap to begin with for this level of expertise. So sad. I walked into a few homes where they had started the project and soon realized it was WAY!!!! more work than they ever imagined so my price didn't seem so bad . I still had to strip what ever they did and start over. I did over 800 cabinets in that period with help of coarse and only one call back as one home owner boiled a kettle daily right under one upper door for a couple of years and it eventually bubbled the finish in the area and I told them not to do that ...but some people don't listen . Good luck with your business and may every job go smoothly! So good to see other finishers doing it Right!!

Great video! its actually a water based acrylic lacquer

what primer did you use?

How much does this project cost the homeowner?

How does a nail hidden behind the flange break down due to sun?

Whats the best way to wash it SH? Darn oxidixation.

OXIDATION....THRU UV RAYS

That powdering paint is called oxidization. Everything painted will need to be repainted. A lot of tech coming out to help Hardie planks do better. Regardless, it still beats vinyl siding, wood siding, everything but maybe block, solid brick, or stone. peace

I think you meant cement siding, could not be concrete because as far as I know, that does not exist as concrete is made up of sand, gravel and cement. I agree it is a bad install.

The siding looks like it is oxidized from the sun most likely. If you have an experienced pressure/soft washing company in your area then I would call them to fix the siding oxidation issues for far less money than painting would cost. An experienced company will use a chemical with soft washing and safe a lot 💰.

How do you know it's Hardie?

Did siding job on my home myself......siding doesn't break.with time. Bad nailing and improper plank installation does.

Which color limewash

PAINT IS NOT CEMENT, it will fade ,crack, and chalk up after 20 years ,just like the rest of the paints out there. Even car paint with a clear coat will do the same. As for the lose siding, they used the wrong fasteners or it was the installer. If they butted the boards like the were supposed to do, there wouldn't be a drop there. I did houses over 30 years ago with this siding. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. Thanks Hardie.

Where are you located ?

I am really sorry for the owner of this house. This is not a Product issue, it is an installation and paint-job issue (this is why there's outdoor paints and some better than others). Cement board siding 101: Don't nail high, butt-join on studs. These things are way too expensive for installers to do this to home owners. Now, your method of fixing also sound problematic: To save this homeowner money on a project they probably already spent a lot on and got crappy install, Face-nail bottom below it. Not pretty but better than trying to rip out expensive boards. If as you say this install is less than 10 years old, those caulks are the wrong ones + nailing were probably not on studs which resulted in the excessive movements at joint. A well-done Hardie siding should not be problematic for at least 20+ years. No, I don't work for Hardie.

Thanks…I have really been debating this….I like both…I don’t think I want to get rid of the grain…I kind of like it. Listened to so many professional painters who say you must grain fill. This helped me decide…

So, there are serious paint job problems, would the painter warranty his job?

Wow looks great. Quite the set up. I’m new to spraying lacquer on cabinets and just seem to be 95% there I’m just not getting that perfect look. I’m using a titan 115 cap spray. I’ve had some problems had a few dimples in the finish also have a slight orange peel to the finish it’s very very smooth but just a bit of orange peel. Does the amount you put on matter I’m putting a descent coat on a primer and two finish. I’ve tried light coat I’ve tried a heavy coat I’ve tried thinning not thinning?!! Not sure if I have the gun set up right but I think I do any tips or videos on this topic would be amazing. Nice work and thank you

Can you fill in the oak grain?

all vinyal and hardie waste of money, all brick house is the way to go

Horrible video

Many of you guys in the comment saying its installation problem. Maybe it is for the falling pieces but! What about the powdering paint???? Is paint falling also installation problem? I'm looking into doing the siding and leaning more and more towards the insulated vinyl. Paint failing like that is NOT maintenance free. HARD PASS on this.

Phenomenol Presentation

Great video from one painter to another! My experience is that since it was sold as “maintenance free” that it wad often painted with a low grade paint that lacked decent UV resistance. I’m curious about the broken nail flange though. Are you seeing most of those on 2 story homes with “Bildrite” sheathing?

"Fiber cement board" is another name for strips of cardboard.

I did it myself with the Woodglut plans. I think this is the best way to find out how to build it.

He will come and pressure wash and paint it for you only problem is your not supposed to pressure wash that type siding

Hi guys, thanks for all the videos. I picked up a few pointers. Spraying cabinets in NE PA. Using SW Sherwood line for Pre-cat Lacquer. Was wondering if you noticed much difference between Benjamin's line of pigmented lacquer & other lines.

why not use conversion varnish, if pre cat were the best option then cabinet manufacturers would use it and they dont

All caused by poor installation, and it is not the factory paint color Plus versions....it's fiber cement, not CONCRETE.....oy vey

Having too many joints line up gives the job a poor look.

These issues are caused by incorrect installation. When installed according to James Hardie specs, the siding will not fail.

That shit was not installed right also the paint failure I can guarantee was because the owner ordered it primed and they painted it later but when you order the planks pre painted you won’t have this problem for 15 years at least

28 year exterior trim carpenter here. I have installed more of this siding than I care to say. (Ohio)This is a installation problem. 3 things cause this. 1 not breaking the seams on studs to support them. 2 nails sank to deep into siding blowing the back out and coming loose later. 3 the installer nailed to close to the top cracking it and allowing it to fall off later there is a dotted line that shows you how far down to nail on each piece. Seen these things many times. The only real fix is either face nail it to death and deal with all the ugly nails or tear off and replace probably most or the the whole house. Hope this helps someone.

There is no such thing as "concrete siding". Also the loose plank is an installation failure. Beginning nails is fine with other siding materials le wood but James hardie is very clear about how the nails should not penetrate to far or have the head be below the surface. When he clearly says "the sun makes it brittle" referring the siding its laughable as the sun has no effect on cement or we would all be walking and driving on crackley and crunchy driveways and sidewalks! LOL In fact cement continues to harden over time and siding is more pliable when new and gets more and more brittle over the years making it harder to remove without snapping. Also the professional term for the paint condition visible here is"chalking" ...and that is due to UV degradation of the paint and is not an issue with substrate at all.

what brand u prefer ?

Thanks for the advice. Just installed Hardie Plank, and now I know what to keep an eye out for.

We filed a claim against Hardie Board for the exact same faults as shown in your video. They have rejected our claim saying it was not material failure but installation failure. Two other houses in our small subdivision filed claims and their claims were accepted. I will be following up with Hardie Board because I feel it is their responsibility, they rejected my claim just two days ago. Almost every house in the neighborhood, only about 15/20 shows the failure of the paint. I was so hopeful for a moment that you were in Flordad so I could have you come out and do the work!! We're in the Sarasota area of Florida - want to go to the beach?<g>

Lots of paint but well worth it over using a brush.
