6 Secret Painting Tricks That Painters Hide From You

In this video, we showed you wall painting tricks, hacks and tips that will be very useful when painting. If you need to paint at home, applying the paint tricks and tricks shown in this video will make your job much easier.

[@irish1209]

Professional painter with 20+ years experience here. While I do commend these “hacks” for inventiveness, and maybe worth doing if your supplies are limited (like trimming a chip brush to be an angled brush, or improvising an extension pole) these are not tricks I have ever used (or seen used) on a job. I guess tin foil would work in a pinch if you didn’t have any cutting skills or tape, and you were masking out a large area to be sprayed….but really, if one just practices cutting in with a 2-2.5” angled brush for a while, your jobs will get much easier. It’s not knowledge you’re born with, anyone can get at least decent at cutting in with some practice. Here’s a Pro Tip for the viewers at home for cleaning brushes: try to keep your brush from drying out. Wrap it in plastic or a wet rag if you don’t have a bucket of water (or solvent) to swish it in. When you are ready to clean it at the end of a job, use dish soap and a wire brush to work out all the paint. As long as the paint didn’t dry up inside the brush, you should be able to get most of it out, extending the life of your brush. Here ends the lesson. 😎👌

one year in and i can cut a very straight line. every single time

[@rjsongwriter]

Trust me folks. Professional painters hide none of these things from you. Mostly because we don't use them. All you need is a high quality brush (the right one for the right job), and practice. Gimmicks are more trouble than they are worth.

I hate painting but love the edging I’m great at it. Like you said all in the brush .

[@Jabberwocky818]

@@belle190 It's called "cutting in".

[@jason7053]

As a professional painter and owner of a painting company I can say I laughed at every hack in this video. Not one thing in this video is something painters do.

[@robfalcon3404]

Yea but he's a professional finger wagger

[@rickfleckner2088]

Yes, as the son of a gun, these hacks are total amateur hour. Any pro that cannot cut in is not worth it.

[@mr_kalyug]

True but such videos gets lots of views and views = $$$$$$

[@teddubois6055]

I concur. Hilarious!

[@misterl2875]

Agree! At least they’re worth a chuckle! 😂 The first rule of cutting-in is…you don’t cut-in with the brush, you cut-in with the paint. (For those who don’t understand that statement it means that you let the paint flow about 1/8 of an inch off the bristles to the cut-in line)

[@garrysekelli6776]

My favorite painting trick is throwing out the brushes after each use.

[@thomasmorano7779]

Mines the disappearing of paint from a can when the boss leaves in the summer....dig a hole n pour..Hey boss where outta paint calling it a day😂

[@problemchild1976]

Just take the outlet off the wall - don't wrap electrically conducting material around it :(

[@curtisyue182]

To be fair, that looks like a low-voltage volume control, not an outlet.

[@kano8]

Or, just use blue painters tap.

[@miger1824]

masking tape??

[@theoriginalmonstermaker]

I thought that one was actually pretty decent. There are alot of raised, oddly shaped surfaces that I can see folding foil around easier to apply (and remove) than tape.

[@RRaquello]

@@kano8 Tape is also cheaper than foil.

All and any tips for all projects can be taken or not taken... Tips have helped me many times over the years. Ty

[@user-qu9ox6es2b]

Stick in the roller is brilliant! For 8 years I could not guess such a simple solution))

[@jorgemendoza9026]

That’s why all rollers handles have threads at the bottom of handles. To add a stick, some short, some long. It has never been a secret, trick or so called hacks nowadays. The only trick I can tell you if you need your whole house painted outside, $6k-9k costs nowadays. You can paint yourself at $400-800 total costs including materials. 3 to 5 days of your life will save you $281 an hour @$9k painter job. That’s an equivalent of $380 an hour before taxes if you make yourself that at your job.

[@deanakennedy3878]

As an amateur painter, I found myself not laughing at the tips, but the way you made the video, it's great! I still tape to get those nice lines, but the coke bottle over the can, I'm definitely going to try it. I used the silicone and denatured alcohol trick once, it actually worked!

[@dannyholmes5127]

What a load of bull this is. As a time served decorator, I can confirm painters and decorators don't do the crap in this video.

[@408Magenta]

Use painter's tape.

[@thomasmorano7779]

Til the paint goes underneath the tape,..learn to cut with a purdy angle brush

[@mikmik9034]

Brushes I have seen come already shaped. Rollers are sold with extension poles. There are Fullels and pour spouts for various sized paint cans, Although the idea of a cap looks interesting.

[@gregc7699]

When he shaved the paintbrush with the hair clippers that shit was hilarious

[@Apollo_Blaze]

When I paint around a doorway frame, a window frame or a thermostat box etc. I always tap the tips of the brush bristles over the section I just painted so to hide the lines or streaks that you can get in an area that is painted with long strokes. When you lightly tap the tips of the brush over those long paint strokes it breaks the paint lines up and blends that area's surface into the wall. 👍

[@Mgt461]

There are some really good ideas demonstrated here and I can’t wait to try them out when I paint the interior of my house next month. Thanks for for this helpful info. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

You should have just took off the cover off switch, use painters tape for some edges, some turpentine or paint thinner would help clean the brushes better too.

А первом случае,по видео - можно просто снять лицевую панель регулятора (она снимается быстро и это будет менее затратно чем защитная фольга)и прокрас получится лучше !! Во втором видео я делаю заминание буртика к стенке банки(того который держит крышку) сектором (примерно 45 градусов) - для того чтоб"до капельки"слить краску из банки. И даже если сливаете краску частями,потом она будет сливаться обратно(со стенки пластика) в банку через замятый буртик (когда поставите вертикально),и не будет растекаться по буртику и там накапливаться...

Kitchen foil around an electrical socket or lightswitch??? There's a wonderful cheap invention called masking tape...

[@Micro-Moo]

Removing that plastic cover before painting and putting it back after would take seconds, much faster than messing up with the foil, cheaper, and would guarantee better quality.

Ive been wasting time washing my brush by hand when i could have got my drill out and and found a screw to drill in to spin my brush for me. Why take 2 mins washing when this will take me 4 mins to set up lol.. And not to mention instead of not over loading my brush with paint i could just put a cup lid on my brush to catch and waste all my paint. Good job lol..

Подскажите пожалуйста, как можно заделать мелкие трещины над окном, между стеной и потолком???

[@user-du4pn3wt4i]

Акриловым герметиком, аккуратненько. Кисточкой обезпыливаете, наносите, прям в трещину, герметик, удаляете излишки, что испачкали вытираете влажной губкой. Это, если они действительно мелкие.

[@user-hp9ko1ct4s]

@@user-du4pn3wt4i Спасибо вам большое. 😊

[@user-pn9qb4fm9x]

И ещё к совету Константина Мережко - Вам надо предварительно попробовать это место(с трещинами)поковырять(без усердия) Дело в том,что там где эти места заделывались и где появились трещины - может быть строителями сделано халтурно. И трещинки могут быть на"корочке"из замазки которой они свою халтуру закрыли. Если Вы просто замажете трещинки,то потом(в случае халтурной основы)эти трещинки начнут"множится"и даже это место может выпасть куском. Если же всё хорошо и место с трещинками крепкое до сделайте как Вам посоветовал Константин М.

[@user-hp9ko1ct4s]

@@user-pn9qb4fm9x Нет. Лучше уж не ковырять. 😁 Если уж вывалится , то тогда будем думать, что делать. Спасибо.

[@Micro-Moo]

@@user-hp9ko1ct4s Я бы лучше немного поковырял. Серьёзно говорю, опыт показывает, что если слишком надеяться, что всё будет хорошо, общие затраты сил и материала будут больше, чем если всё зачистить с самого начала - то, о чём говорит Эмиль Золя, вполне реальная проблема.

Se desmonta los interruptores y recorta mucha nota hacen ese interruptor se desarma

[@danieldamianflores7247]

En vez de usar aluminio, es mejor comprar cinta adhesiva de pintar o carpintero; en vez de un palo de escoba compren un extensor, dura toda la vida si lo cuidas. Con ser cuidadoso no volcas la pintura. Para limpiar el pincel aguarras o algún solvente y sale fácil. Para hacer líneas perfectas si no tienes buen pulso usa un pincel más chico y fino y además encinta la otra pared. Te quedan perfectas las líneas. Lo más importante acá no se vé. Antes de trabajar empapela y pone un nylon grande en el piso para no manchar nada. Y ese rodillo que uso sobre la columna hay que evitarlos. Busquen rodillos antigoteo. Abrazo grande.

Im a professional painter and if i didnt have any tape i could see how aluminum foil could come in handy..Even tho i could see somebody using these ideas its all about the experience and the brush you use..even the paint .painters have been doing things a certain way and thats just how it is...But like i said if you were at home and didnt have access to certain materials then yea these hacks would work!!

Розетки и выключатели можно снять за полминуты, дольше обматывать фольгой будешь, мытьё кисточки... ну, если краска на растворителе, то проще выбросить, растворитель нонче дорогой, а на водной основе и так прекрасно вымоется, зачем такие сложности, подводку я бы стала делать хорошей мягкой кисточкой, незачем большую кисть портить.

[@Micro-Moo]

Да уж... Знаете канал «Доктор Дью»? Вот он там от души издевается над подобными «знатоками» и «изобретателями». Я и обратил внимание на это видео, что Доктор Дью показывал фрагмент, как ещё один такой портит кисточку.
