This video is extremely informative and all the information was 100% useful. I ran down to the Home Depot and got everything I needed . My mothers porch looks great. Thank you for sharing.
My porch looks like this one and I m so happy I found this video. Now I know the steps to paint a wood porch correctly. Thanks a bunch !!!! Have a Blessed Day
Nice video. You explained at a good pace. Paint latex over oil but never oil over latex. Also I like to spot PRIME all bare wood too before applying finish coat. ZINSSER is a good wood primer. Thnks for taking the time to produce this video.
This was really great. Thanks very much. I have a similar job to do and just didn't know any of the steps to follow. Cheers for the great help. I'll start ordering the prep supplies right away.
I agree with everyone here: this was an excellent how-to video! You walked us through each step clearly for us novices. Thank you so much! I’m just getting started on mine, and now I know the order of things, plus what the caulk is for when my boyfriend said I may want to caulk 😊
Hi, planning to redo and repaint my porch in a few days. Watching your video was super helpful. I will probably get all the stuff that is needed showned I’m your video. Biggest concern I have is using the 5 in 1 scraper you mention to scrap it off lightly getting all the chipped paint than sand it down. That part I understand it all. Now for the old paint that is still there after sanding it down lightly so I just repaint over it. And if I do would that paint come off once it get down the line like 3 years later. Thank you for your support of your video showing us what to do step by step.
Forgot to ask about the Valspar Paint. This is ok to use on wood? Many of the reviews said it was used on concrete floors. Just wondering why you recommend this paint? I really need all the help I can get! Thank you!
Awesome instructions. Will definitely help for my first project of painting front and back porch. Question: Roughly how long did this whole project take you?
Thank you for sharing the knowledge!! Best how-to video I found so far! Really helpful to get me start. Just curious, how long should I wait to paint the second coat or third coat through?
Not sure to be honest, it was there when I bought the house. As far as beadboard goes, you can buy either wood or MDF sheets. MDF should definitely not be used outside because it soaks up water like a sponge, but wood beadboard should be fine.
Great video! Hope to paint some railings next week. 2 questions. Is that a Marietta college sweatshirt? I went there in the 80's. Second, no primer? Is a few coats of the paint ok with no primer?
Great video! I really feel like I can tackle this job now. I have 2 questions thou: 1. What grit sanding block did you use? 2. We are re-staining deck also. Which would you do first? Paint the railing or stain deck? Thanks so much!
It wouldn't hurt to use Kilz primer on the exposed parts. What I did instead was put 2-3 coats of the exterior paint on the exposed parts and areas of high traffic (top hand rails). Up to you, I just didn't want to make another trip to Lowes!
That was a really good video!! Very thorough and concise. Loved seeing the difference btw caulked vs uncaulked corner, wood filler application technique and tip of using cardboard. Just a couple questions. 1. How long do you have to wait after applying TPS cleaner? 2. Do you need a primer?
Thank you!! Glad you liked it. To answer your questions: 1. Until it is dry. Usually about 10-15 minutes should do the trick. 2. You don't need primer but it wouldn't hurt. I would recommend putting on a coat of Kilz interior/exterior primer before putting on the finish coats, especially if the wood is super porous.
@@chaserandolph6437 Very Helpful video. I've read that TPS must be washed off before painting, but you didn't? So, no interference with the paint if you leave it on? It's powerful stuff. But, I'm trying to beat the rain and avoid the dry time of washing it down after applying TSP. I guess it works for you?
@@billf6417 I think we did give it a quick wipe down with warm water after using the TSP. Looks like I skipped that part in the video. That being said, I'm sure if you let everything dry there would not be any interference between TSP and paint.
Do I have to use a paint mixer to mix the paint? Also can I just dig into the paint container and not use a paint tray? I know it would be better but how much of a requirement is it?
I don't charge, but here is a snippet from google search "how much does it cost to have your porch painted": "When painting a porch, expect to pay $2 to $5 per square foot. The overall cost is $300 to $750, or $525 on average, since porches are usually 150 square feet at most. The total includes up to 25 linear feet of railings." Hope this helps!
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Usually you would choose to do either paint or stain, not both. Are you thinking of primer? If you can't get all of the old paint off you can just sand as much of it off as you can and paint over that. No need to get 100% of the old paint off. I hope this helps...if not please clarify what you mean and I'll try to help! Thanks
Great tutorial 👌🏾. My only thing is, I saw so many other places you could've utilized that caulk. Especially the gaps on the railing. Nonetheless still a great video.

At what point did you have to wash down and clean the deck? Or did you not need to clean or power wash the dirt & mold off the deck ?

I've been having anxiety about painting my porch because I've never painted a porch. Thanks for this video!
I painted my porch but do you know if I’m able to put Thompson water sealer over it since it’s already been painted ?
A very clear and easy to follow tutorial. Thank you.

What an oddly likeable person.
haha well thanks, Christopher!
Thank you so much for the detail explanation! I think I can do this my own!! Subscribed!!! 🥰
Thanks for the video, really useful, just started home project and your video was a really nice tutorial!
No priming? What kind of paint did you use?
I didnt see any primer being applied before painting. Is that necessary for exterior projects?
Thank you so much for posting this!
Yep, hope it helps!
I like your porch where did you get the beadboard for your celling porch I have seen some but was told it was not for outside celling ?
Not sure to be honest, it was there when I bought the house. As far as beadboard goes, you can buy either wood or MDF sheets. MDF should definitely not be used outside because it soaks up water like a sponge, but wood beadboard should be fine.
Thank you for the video, turned out nice, need to buy items to do this
Thanks for watching, Sol! Let me know if you have any questions along the way!
Looks fab!!
Great video! Hope to paint some railings next week. 2 questions. Is that a Marietta college sweatshirt? I went there in the 80's. Second, no primer? Is a few coats of the paint ok with no primer?
Could I change the color of paint with this method or is it better to repaint the same color as the original?
Great video! I really feel like I can tackle this job now. I have 2 questions thou:
1. What grit sanding block did you use?
2. We are re-staining deck also. Which would you do first? Paint the railing or stain deck?

Thanks man gonna paint mine this week
@@chaserandolph6437 will do
I just painted my porch from watching your video thanks
No primer needed to area where it was exposed after scrapping? Thanks.
It wouldn't hurt to use Kilz primer on the exposed parts. What I did instead was put 2-3 coats of the exterior paint on the exposed parts and areas of high traffic (top hand rails). Up to you, I just didn't want to make another trip to Lowes!
@@chaserandolph6437 Thanks Bro!
Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! Did you sand in between the coats? If yes, should we use a finer grit sand between the coats?
That was a really good video!! Very thorough and concise. Loved seeing the difference btw caulked vs uncaulked corner, wood filler application technique and tip of using cardboard. Just a couple questions.
1. How long do you have to wait after applying TPS cleaner?

10-15 minutes if you are using a latex finish coat psint. Alot longer till the wood is completely dried if using oil based paint
Thoroughly rinse off the TSP.
Very clear and thorough. Thank you!
No problem thanks for watching!
Do I have to use a paint mixer to mix the paint? Also can I just dig into the paint container and not use a paint tray? I know it would be better but how much of a requirement is it?
You can just use a paint stick and/or shake the can of paint by hand. You don't ever HAVE to use a paint tray, it just makes things easier.
Great video on "how to do." I was hoping you would suggest the best paint for painting a porch.
SHERWIN WILLIAMS DURATION latex exterior paint is very good
@@badgerfishinski6857 Yep! Or Valspar (porch, floor, & patio)

Do I need to use a sealant after painting?
Very thorough, thanks
New sub!!!
How do you charge? If you don’t mind me asking.
I don't charge, but here is a snippet from google search "how much does it cost to have your porch painted":

Hope this helps!
Without primer you’ll be painting it again next season…I learned that the hard way…now 5 years in and all is good still
What if you don't get all the old paint out. Can you stain over old paint and than paint it over or not
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Usually you would choose to do either paint or stain, not both. Are you thinking of primer?

Thanks!! This is what I want! ^^
Perfect!

Also after you paint, go back before its dry to brush out any drips.
Yes for sure!
Thank You so much!!🖌🎨🧤

You need to remove all the paint. In a year or two it will be peeling off. Try again sonny
We shall see, Don! Thanks for watching.
Do you need to prime before painting?
Great video! Thank you!
