    Question, do you only spray the exterior once? I know you said you do the trim twice and pull tape right after the second coat. Just curious if you typically only spray the exterior once

    Can I use a sprayer like that if my neighbors house is only 20-30 ft away? Too close for overspray? It doesn't look as bad as one I've used before.

    Chris here in Fl. the wall come out of the ground so how do you paint that without blowing dirt everywhere? Thanks for all you videos and time to make them.

    Cannot believe how much I’ve learned watching your vids! Wealth of knowledge. I see what you mean about that triton not having a whip. Looks like you were having to hold the hose with one hand to control it better. B/C of your review, I returned mine and went with the HF Avanti max 821. Not sure if it will last but it’s 100% rebuildable for only about $100 more.
    For exterior paint going on new Hardie plank siding, do you have a paint brand or preference?

    Love your channel! I'm trying to watch as many of your videos as I can but any tips on doing a large spray to a sheet metal barn when it comes to paint type. Im seeing Behr Marquee as a good one for price and performance but would go by your thoughts and experience. I grabbed a Titan 1900 from see you using it. Thanks, your content is fantastic!!

      Sherwin Williams has great products for that. I believe super paint or an emerald resilience or any other emerald product would be good, it’s expensive but those products are wonderful in my experience

      @@Toneytwotimes The old adage is: You get what you pay for." If a product is expensive, but you use that product right, it'll produce superior results. There've been so many people that thought they could buy, and use, cheap and inferior products, and get great results, and...well...
      They couldn't.
      They ended up with something, that, shall I say, failed the endurance test. I agree with you-Buy the expensive stuff. It'll pay off, in the long run.

      He controls it by his angle and the pressure on his machine. Looks like the wind isn’t too bad surprisingly. I would think Idaho is fairly windy.

      Per my experience with getting quotes it depends on your volume. If you get significantly discount paint, providing it goes to your profit.
      Some painters let the home owner get it themselves.

    My least favorite thing about your YT channel is how easy you make everything look... whereas (in my reality) ...I can't even decide what color I want to paint my house. Now on top of "indecision" about color selection I am also thinking "I need to strain the paint?!!?" 😭😭😭

      They sell elastic band strainers that fit 1 and 5 gallon buckets and they’re easy. Like putting in a trash bag and dumping some paint into an empty bucket. they work well but like he said probably want to use some gloves
