people who have never painted a wall always think, "oh, it's paint, how hard can it be? anyone can paint." but every trade has techniques and tricks that separate the professionals from the amateurs. thank you for sharing
So true, goes for all trades.

Ime in the trade in England.
I always roll the walls first before cutting in, then that gives the walls time to dry whilst cutting in.
I find that way much quicker , I also use a scuttle bucket for my paint instead of a tray.
@@darrencollier1927 sometimes I roll first as well and then apply two cut ins and finish on a roll . Whatever works aye mate as long as it looks good 👍
I wish I had watched this BEFORE I started painting. Well, the new 2 coats will be better tomorrow!
Roll, heavy cut in, roll, roll out
thanks for all these tips! My paint job was looking terrible and these simple changes are likely going to make all the difference, including your paint roller loading video. Thanks!!! I so appreciate professionals taking the time to show their expertise - you are a really good teacher too!

You use a flat eggshell for walls, semi is for your trim and doors etc
Basically high gloss is for cupboard doors, trim
You can also get ceiling paint too
Eggshell is a flat colour, you want to use flat interior paint for walls
What was once a stressful process has turned into a breeze! Thank you for your incredibly clear instructions - straight to the point and extremely helpful material.
Glad you found the video helpful.

I've worked as a painter in the past, and have to say so far your tutorial is the best I have seen on UA-cam. Having worked with top notch painters, I am pleasantly surprised to learn some nuances that were amiss from my experience. You got a like and a new subscriber!
I would like to share a tip with all of you: having worked with many decorators in the past, I learned to always remove all the wall plates and mask the electrical components. Meanwhile, clean the wall plates from any dirt, sand, prime and paint them with the same color of the wall - or cover them with the wallpaper being used, if that's the case - once the paint is dry apply 2 coats of non-yellowing sealant, scrape with a blade any excesses of paint and wait as long as possible to put them all back, that is to give the chance for the paint to cure properly. Aesthetically the finish result is incomparable, no matter how humble a room may be. As they say, the devil lies in the details!
I have noticed Aussie switches and power points are different to American ones. The new style here have a cover plate that you remove when painting and replace when finished, the switch still looks like the one in this video except it has a removable cover.

So I just completed painting a mudroom using a technique like this, using an off-white with pearl sheen. When the paint dried, I had lap lines (sheen differences) galore in certain light, looking down the wall. Yikes. I think I my roller may have been too dry when laying off, or perhaps I didn't overlap my up and down strokes quite enough. This gentleman makes it look so easy! I'm back to Square One, starting over. I'm going to try an eggshell sheen this time, to reduce the light reflecting on an imperfect technique, hopefully.
Yes you most likely didn't have enough paint on the roller or maybe the nap of your roller sleeve was to short. Use around 15 mm nap, you should find this works better.

It didn’t make sense to me that you went back over it at the end until I saw how uniform the finish was in that bright spot in the middle of the wall. I waste never taught that part but it looks so much better after that second roll. Thanks for the info!
Yes it helps flatten out the orange peel effect.

howtopaintinfo my dad painted my room white and it looks uneven. Now I’m thinking to go in and prime everything and repaint it myself. Also I bought satin paint for him to use. Should I use an eggshell this time? Any other tips or suggestions?
Its --What Sheen you using, how big the wall is, from what angle light is hiting it, is it winter or summer, when you put all this Together then you will know how to paint
I find your roller technique to be the best I've seen by far. Thank you so much.

If you go up with the roller, vs down, each results in a different sheen. Glad you backrolled it all in the same direction.

I live in Connecticut in the USA!
I've been painting for 30+years and until I went to work in Tampa Florida I discovered the 18 inch nap Rollers and they cover the best out of all the others, plus for cutting edge and trim I found out that the corona brand is best for smooth strokes and coverage. Just to let you know!
Are you talking about the monarch brushes?

Good video but you should remove the power outlet covers before painting. It’s a lot easier, you can paint right up to the metal, and in the future when the outlets are replaced the standard for the cover size may be smaller, meaning you’ll have to repaint the wall if you didn’t remove them
Outlets here in Australia are different to other countries, we do have a cover plate on the new style of outlets but the outlet is still screwed firm to the wall. We could remove it but the wires are connected to it and it would only hang down the wall. Generally for insurance purposes we do not play with them. The one in this video is and older style with no cover plate.

Would you cut in the whole wall on a final coat like you did on this video or would you do it in sections as you go?
I do cut in the entire houses before I roll, light colours are fine to be done this way but some darker colours would need to be done wall by wall.

How do you manage to get so much paint on wall? You've literally done the whole wall in 6-7 minutes. Roller must be really good
A good roller sleeve helps, normally I would use a 14 inch roller which is quicker again.

As always great techniques I am actually going to start painting my walls tomorrow everything has already been cut in few days ago though new paint added is not noticable, paint I am using is called Behr marquees ultra semi gloss one coat & it dries very fast so have to work fast with it or paint will start wrinkling temperature will also be in low 80's tomorrow so may have to get an early start on it. Thank's for another great video👍

I remember how lovely it was to use a roller first time. It was distemper and a brush when I watched my dad back in thev1950s. Then in the UK we papered the walls. That's a whole other thing.
I still remember brushing complete rooms.

How many videos are there out there that show rolling a wall without a rolling pole? Thousands? Chiropractors benefit the most from that technique.
You can paint a wall without a roller pole but it is a much slower way and is not good for your back when rolling the low section.

After brushing I roll the top horizontal before rolling the wall vertically. I find it easier to feather the roller pressure off doing the vertical rolling if the top is already rolled horizontally.

Nice lesson. Most people seem to be trying to show us how to do it super fast, criss crossing the wall and stretching the paint. How much paint do you put on the roller and what do you do when there’s not enough space between the wall and power points? Brush strokes would look very different. Is it ok to roller off with a first coat of durable Matt?
Great vid thank you very nice got good tips from the vid stay safe godbless you and your people Carl in london

I find in hot rooms or drywall that it is best keeping your cutting in ‘thin’ and always side roll it before vertical rolling otherwise you can get a showing cut line. Also in dark rooms and ceilings am LED light really helps identify problem areas and roller lines
Yes you can roll sideways after cutting in the ceiling line but generally its not necessary, if you keep your cutting in tight as in don't come down too far it is normally fine. Dark colours can be an issue and it can be best to have two people doing it, one cutting in and one rolling. If you can see roller lines then you are not rolling properly, there should be no visible roller lines no matter what light you use. Using lights in a room with poor lighting is a must.
