"I typically don't go too quick", mate you are the fastest painter I have ever seen, and you don't spill a drop! I can see clearly that you a a pro compared to me. Great video and great job.
Thank you! Just the info I was looking for. I'm painting a dry wall at college as an assessment and I mistook the top coat for a primer! When I painted the next layer, you could see the seams. I think I'll have to repaint the whole thing again and properly this time.😅
May I ask what products you recommend in terms of like rollers and primers. Our walls are a dark beige with brown trim and accent walls. I’ll be painting either white duck or shoji.
@@HappilyeverHart I use a few different products, I like bennett for rollers and brushes , and I like to use sico or Benjamin Moore for paint and primers
Geez...You are so smooth at painting!!! 2 Me its an art I can appreciate ....Well. I think because I don't quite have that skill!! ,,,My jobs are always a disaster !!! Yet they winde up being ok! ...The thing I'm learning is I really need better rollers! Thanks bro!!!
Hi there, yes I use the same primer on walls and ceilings doors and trim. I use a few different brands of paint, the best paint on the market in Canada is definitely Benjamin Moore. If you go to the store they should be able to help you with all your needs, well I guess you will have to call them first and make sure they are open and doing curbside pickup if you are in Ontario. Hope this helps
Did you do two coats of primer? First coat you did I could see through it but when you went to do the top coat the primer looked much more even. Was there a second coat in between?
I have a question - what is the reason to go against the direction of the roller? What I've seen from other youtubers is that you have to roll in the direction of metal holder to avoid ridges and if you leave ridges on the primer that will also show on the paint.
I've watch many videos too, I think everyone has the ways they like and in the end it's all pretty much the same result. I can roll the ceiling and walls in any direction and it's great when done. Thanks for watching and for the comment I always like the feedback and questions
I was going to use a ladder to reach the upper wall but after seeing this, I'll buy a long handle for the roller instead. That primer paint goes on well with good coverage. I wonder what brand it is.
Hi , yes the poles work great. I think the primer I would have used here is called Bullseye 123, it's great for anytime of priming the company is zinsser Hope this helps
Hey, yes I would prime, I like using just white primer then if there is paint on ceiling or trim i cover it with the white primer, then start with a new fresh line cut. After that i always put on 2 coats of the paint. Hope this helps, thanks for watching and for the comment
Do you have to be good at edging to prime? I have to prime my walls that were professionally painted before I move and I’m worried 😅 I have no painting experience
You should have a fairly steady hand, I would use a 1.5 inch brush which will help with control. I have a few videos demonstrating how I do the edging or cutting around ceiling and trim
What's the brush you're using? My husband gets these really large angle brushes and I have small hands so they hurt after a while. I dread cutting with a brush because of this. BTW - I can watch you paint ALL day! Mesmorizing.
Hi there, thanks for watching and for the comment and question. I have used all kinds of brushes and all sizes, a number of years ago i found the perfect brush for me and what i do, mostly interior house painting, and that was the 1.5 inch angled Bennett proffesional series brush. I do like to wash them first a couple times before using because it will open up the brush a bit wider and thicker. Which I find is just right for me to get crisp straight lines. Bennett is a Canadian company and the products are made here in Canada. If you are in the states you might want to check with your local paint store to see if they carry them. Perhaps a home depot would as well. Glad you enjoy my videos 😊👍🏻 I try to keep creating contend on this channel as much as I can
@@TheCanadianHomePainter Thank you! The closest thing we would have is the Wooster brand so I'll go take a look at HD. Also, did you water down the paint at all? It goes on so smooth, like butter? Is that the brush doing that? I just never thought I'd be able to use a much smaller brush because my husband always buys the 3-4" angled brushes and they're huge and hard to work with.
@@suzanx I dont water down the paint, I will only use a couple brands of paint though, Here in Canada Benjamin Moore is number one, but a close second is Sico which is now a PPG product. And those 2 give me the best results, they aren't cheap but well worth the money. As for the brush, I have to male sure the wash and dry them a couple time which will expand them to about 2 " give or take. Right out of the package they aren't what I like. Wooster is a great brand as well , very popular here too, try out the inch and a half and see what you think
Hi, I did the corners after, the most important part is to make sure you roll the whole wall, sometimes you can see through thr paint after and see the primer, so that's why you need to roll the whole surface
@@devinmoran59 that might not be a bad idea, it does take some time to get good at painting. Make sure you hire a company that someone you know has used the services before and were very happy. It's best if you can go and check out the finished product on a job they did. That's my only advice when hiring.
Hi there, in the case of this video the reason was for covering the drywall repairs. If I don't prime I see where the repairs were behind the paint, the primer works to conceal those areas. If you don't have repairs and you are painting latex paint over previous painted latex then you should be fine. Hope this helps
Is it okay if my primer paint isn’t perfect? I noticed yours is pretty good and even, mine isn’t. Shall I have a second cost of primer? Watching here from the Philippines
Hey! Wow all the way from the Philippines 😊 The Primer wont look as good as the paint, if you are worried about it there is no harm in giving it a light second coat. Thanks for watching and for the comment
you dont need to prime the entire walls or even use a primer just spot prime the filler with a thinned coat of your emulsion you only need to use a primer on bare surfaces for walls you would only use a primer on old plaster or walls with efflorescence other than that you dont need one
Well I always make sure to do the whole surface, I find with spot priming in certain light I can still see the repair, but when I prime it just seems to cover.
Good question, the reason being if light shines in on the wall , you will most likely see the primer through the paint. I know from my experience that can happen and it doesn't look good, if you prime the entire surface you won't see where you primed
I hate how easy you made this look. My room came out looking absolute dogsht. Thankfully we only did one room so the wasted money was minimal. Next time I'll just hire a pro.
Thanks , sorry your project didn't turn out the way you wanted. I have been doing this for over 15 years so I guess that's why i make it look easy. Thanks for watching the video and for the comment
I aspire to paint as quickly and effectively as you! Excellent skills sir!
Thank you very much for the kind comment, much appreciated
@@TheCanadianHomePainter can you tell me how long does red oxide primer last once Opened?

Brilliant video, I was pondering, skipping the primer, but it is clear to me now, how important that part is. Thank you

Thank you very much, this video answered my question.
You're welcome 👍🏻 😊
Do you recommend laying off the primer coat?? awesomely explained
Awesome video bro thank you. Will put the roller description?
did you wait for the paint to dry first after you used the primer first? if so how long for

And yes the rollers and brushs really make a big difference. They might cost a bit more bit worth it 👌🏻
Good job mate
Thanks 😊
Watching from India
It's nice man
I was watching it because I didn't use primer and it left spots of previous paint on my wall as I repainted it.
I'm glad you found it helpful
Did you go back and prime and painted?
Thank you! I can't find a long roller in my local store. Gotta DIY a long roller coz a short one sucks. You make it seem easy
You're welcome 😊
Thanks for watching and for commenting, i hope your diy project turns out great
9 inch roller is the best.
Would you use the same primer on the walls as the ceiling? And would you know which brand would be comparable to the Sherwin-Williams?
Hi there, yes I use the same primer on walls and ceilings doors and trim.

Great video! Very helpful! Which brand primer do you use?
Your welcome! Thanks for watching
I use a few different ones, but a great primer for many different purposes has to be Bullseye 123
Did you do two coats of primer? First coat you did I could see through it but when you went to do the top coat the primer looked much more even. Was there a second coat in between?
PS watching from Australia, just did a room with primer and wondering if I need two coats (or even three) because I can see through my primer
What kind of roller sleeve are you using? That’s really good coverage.
I use a roller sleeve by a Canadian company called Bennet, I have used them for years. I typically use the 10 mm thick sleeves.
I have a question - what is the reason to go against the direction of the roller? What I've seen from other youtubers is that you have to roll in the direction of metal holder to avoid ridges and if you leave ridges on the primer that will also show on the paint.

Excellent technic to paint..which kind of paint brush are u using? Thanks
I have been using this brand called Bennett for many years they have many different paint products
I'm painting a wall whose original colour glossy dark green. Do I need a primer and two coats of paint or one coat of primer and one coat of paint?

Excellent! Do u need to sand the primer coat before applying the 1st coat of paint?
You can , I have sanded before I paint, but I have also not sanded and it was fine.
Thanks for watching !
Hi did you not prime the Edge of the walls? Like is it necessary? Or did you just touch this up with white paint?
Hi, I did the corners after, the most important part is to make sure you roll the whole wall, sometimes you can see through thr paint after and see the primer, so that's why you need to roll the whole surface
If your putting paper on new plaster do you still need to prime? Or can i put paper straight on?
You need to make sure you put on wallpaper sizing, ask for it at the store and they will know what it is
That phone vibrating at about 6:00 really messed with me 😂
When you put on the second coat, do you brush and cut in again?
Hi, yes that's right
@@TheCanadianHomePainter After 10 hours on UA-cam i just realized I'm not a painter...I'm hiring a painter. Thanks bro 👍

Did you prime it without covering the floor with plastic?
That carpet was being replaced so I didn't need to worry about it
Do I need to prime even if I’m painting my walls white?

I always tint my primer to match the color I will paint my walls
Yes I do to , but sometimes I use the same can of primer on the ceiling and trim too, so that why it's better for that to just not tint it
Dam your fast!!
Not really lol
that's what she said
So he is saying the Benjamin Moore is a high quality paint?
Anyone know why he doesn't prime the corner at all?
I do the corners too, sometimes I do it before I roll and sometimes after, with priming it really doesn't matter in what order
And just like that folks I can paint 😁
you dont need to prime the entire walls or even use a primer just spot prime the filler with a thinned coat of your emulsion you only need to use a primer on bare surfaces for walls you would only use a primer on old plaster or walls with efflorescence other than that you dont need one

But everyone has to find what works best for them
Ppl dont primer their walls and it always turns put like shit
Is this primer 0il Base 0r Water Base
Its water based
Why didn't you just spot prime on the repairs only?
