You sound like the bloke that used to do art attack 😂👍

Great job on this video! Very professionally made. Music, dialogue and angles are excellent. I’m a handyman in USA and fixing to repaint a deck that is not in terrible shape. Just very small chips and flaking here and there. With this video you confirmed my thoughts on how I need to do this job of repainting a deck that is still in pretty decent condition. Not strip and sand the whole thing for no reason that common sense was telling me. Thanks

This paint is self priming yes, just a case of letting it cure for the recommended amount of time the manufacturer says! Cheers
