    Thank you so much, you're definitely pro and have great craftsmanship, I've been painting 22 years myself and have luckily got to be mentored by excellent painter's, most of them have retired or moved on, I actually learned the dust pan technique from a lady painter who was phenomenal, usually carry two maskers around with me and especially if I'm doing millwork, I have one masker with quick release tape and my second masker I have just blond tape, of course I use the quick release on walls and ceilings and then I can use the other masker on top of the paper without worrying about ripping texture off and drywall, Lord knows I've had to do unnecessary repairs many times. I also don't pre-tape, I was taught how to run a straight line and I pre-tape tape on top if its crooked or up in corners, I make sure it's not stair stepped because you'll see the millage build up, I make sure it's lined up with my masking, you pull your masking in the end and it lift's the tape at the same time, you're unmasking once , not twice. Thank you so much for everything you do for us. Sincerely Lorenzo gig harbor WA.

    Chris!! I’ve been watching you for four or five years now and you’ve taught me almost everything I know on how to paint houses.
    I’ve watched every tip and trick you have.
    This week I sprayed my first set of cabinets. I taped everything off properly and all of the yellow frog tape came off the walls. I don’t think I’m gonna use that anymore.
    And even the blue tape that I used on my masking machine, came off once I sprayed the first coat of paint.
    Has this ever happened to you or did I do something wrong?
    I mean it didn’t all come off but random spots that I taped came up once it was wet.
    Help!!

    Question Chris, I was on a job about 4 months ago .And mind u I've been painting for 27 years anyways my boss wanted me to use blue tape for door hinges , so I did that u know as well as I do when u do that and people keep coming in and out the tape will squash up and pull . I told him to check before spraying well he didn't and got paint on hinge . Of course he fired me. I was like y didn't u take door off. He's one that's in a hurry with everything . So in future please do a vid on the different kinds of tape if I were gonna do it that way I would have used orange tape not as thick and sticks better. I've been following u and John for a minute u guys have made me wanna go out on my own. I'm afraid to bid jobs though.

      Wasteful and time consuming, big waste of paper, paper is the quickest. Green paper is much better than brown, thicker and holds more overspray before blows through it. I always like the 1 1/2" tape when masking, more sticky exposed to hold paper to surface. Look kind of stupid blowing up balloons on the job site.

Just turned 60 yrs. old (my profile photo is 17 years younger now), but I'm still heavily doing DIY projects and soon to be doing my first ever repairs and painting on my 23 yr. old 2-story home exterior. I know I've got quite the monstrous project to tackle, but I know I can do it! Your TIPS are definitely very much appreciated my friend. I'm a petite lady, but strong as a mule still, and definitely have the tools, and better than average know-how to tackle any projects I'm willing to learn . . . not the average female for sure. As an artist and multimedia business woman, I not only enjoy your athleticism in your work -- because that is what it truly is, . . . but you also have such a sincere character about you that comes through on camera! ;-) I sure enjoy problem solving and building things too, and really enjoy restoration and preservation of things - - including recycling & repurposing. I have a great appreciation for SKILLS when I see it. ;-) Continued blessings and success in what you do, because it does make a difference to even someone like me who you may never even meet. YOU'RE AWESOME FRIEND!

    I've used the dust collection method But the paper bag was nice. Out of the 20+ years of Painting with my uncles that's the only one I've not seen ! I'm starting my own company [Nxt Generation Taylor Painting]™️ I bid on a 2345 sq ft home and after that was asked to go another from a GC, I've been praying I can hook up with his company and become his painter but anyway, great Channel and a awesome guy It's always worth it to get tips from a fellow painter. Thanks Chris and the PaintLife Crew. God bless
