Yes!!

Why would you assume that? it was sanded and wiped down prior to paint, but that wasn't part of the video.

@@JakePalmerReMax Because of the cracked caulking??

@@jackjax532 dude have the time to sanded and wiped down but can not even finish the prep before the paint. half ass is always half ass, if you want really good trim paint from Sherwin Williams, go with Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel or ProClassic Acrylic Enamel( Dry Fast)

Half ass will always be half ass

@@jackjax532 🤣

The asbestos that may be in that attic insulation is microscopic. It can't be seen. Vermiculite (those small flaky pieces he shows in the video) itself is not hazardous. The issue is that much of the vermiculite used in North America between 1920 and 1990 was from a single mine in Montana. The product was marketed as Zonolite. And the vermiculite from that mine was contaminated with asbestos. That is why if vermiculite is seen, it is very likely to contain asbestos. Only testing by a lab can tell for sure.

Emerald trim enamel is like 500x better than superpaint😂😂 I prefer it in satin over semi gloss as well.

same thing happened to me. What a nightmare

Asbestos is beyond the scope of home inspections. That being said, inspectors should be familiar with asbestos like materials, and make note when they find something that looks like it. Usually that is a separate thing, and samples need to be sent off to test at a lab.

Not yet. But I hope I will some day.

Depends on the size of the attic but the basement would run. $900-$1500 on the high end

😂😂😂

Sherwin Williams Super Paint Semi Gloss

Agree but will note that BM Advance recoat time is 16 hours. It's the main reason so few pro's use it. SW Advance is only 3 hours. Both spray very nicely with the correct equipment.

Totally agree on the SW emerald trim enamel, by far the best I've used💪💪💪

I always used oil base trim paint until I found the latex urethane paint.....I totally agree with you!!

​@@stephenfaust1483it isn't latex. It's an oil hybrid

From reading about it, I think it depends on the amount of time over years you are exposed to it and beating it in.

They have not banned asbestos use in the US. Generally speaking mid 70s and after that contain very little asbestos, but some products then contained small traces of asbestos. Regulating asbestos and it's usages came about in the early 70s.

From what I am researching, homes built during the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s would be more at risk than homes in the early 1900’s. Even thought asbestos has been mined and used for centuries, it wasn’t until those post war rears that it was used more in homes. I wouldn’t worry too much about much about asbestos in your home but do get it checked out by a professional since you have health issues. I went through Lead Safety certification last year and learned a lot about lead in old homes. Lead not as bad as it can be made out to be. Lead does affect developing brains but not so much adults that have fully developed brains. Higher levels in adults can lead to high blood pressure but it’s not the super danger like it is for developing young minds. Also, lead was used where it needed to be more durable. This was usually not on walls but in interior and exterior trim around doors windows and other places they wanted semi or full gloss plus resiliency. We use lead kits manufactured by 3m that are not super expensive and tell you almost instantly if something has lead. Unfortunately, for asbestos testing you have to send off samples and pay for the results. They are more expensive than the lead test kits. You also have to wait for results to come back and then by able to trust the results. It’s still worth the cost.

@@RemmikRotus Thx so much for the info, you've helped ease my mind! Since living in my home I've been experiencing breathing issues and brain fog but that also could just be from aging, gotta love getting older☺
