I appreciate you showing how to cut in free hand as well as using the frog tape and caulk. I like knowing the options I have, if I am not good at cutting in free hand i have the option to use frog tape and caulk. Thank you.

Thank you For sharing your tips and tricks. I have been watching you intermittently for years. I always refer back to your videos when I need a refresh or how to do something like caulking correctly and efficiently. I have been able to update rooms in my house, a nursery room at my son and daughter-in-law house😊their friends said it looked like designer wall paper as my lines were perfect, used 3 shades of blue, got creative, bought a 1 1/2 “ star stamp and did a cute pattern…that was almost 3 years ago and still looks awesome! I also got some wood letters to spell out my grandsons name and glued those into a old small chalkboard frame and painted the frame and letters in the same 3 shades of blue on the walls-super cute and it all started from you teaching and inspiring me. Thank You!

Another good trick is to use clear water base flat glaze which is a thinner viscosity than caulk and can be brushed on then wiped down over edges of the tape and painted . Once de taped, it leaves a sharp line over a rough surface. Used this method for over 30 years in Idaho with no after problems.

For trim, I prefer to lightly paint over the tape with trim color vs caulking because even the tiniest particles of caulk that are left over on the trim after you peel off the tape will pick up dust and/or yellow at a different rate than the trim itself and if you're OCD like me, it will drive you mad.

quick tip. if your doing 2 coats on the wall have the trim masked with tape on the edges and roll all the walls with 2 coats and get about 1/8 or 2/8 inch away from the tape then just do the caulking and paint then take the tape off and boom all rolled 2 coats and not having to take the tape off preventing drips from falling

30 yrs' painting, always willing too learn new methods. Personally. I paint trim/doors w/o tape 1st, keeping walls as my cut in line. Another trick for large voids and cracks: mix oil base primer with commercial whiting making a malleable paste-like coating to fill in deep cracks usually in historic applications. let cure for as long as possible, sand w.220 or kerosene (cheaper than mineral spirits and yes, there is a lingering odor, but works wonderfully with soft nylon rag.) Paint with a smile...

Looks simple enough. What we've done is to paint the edge of the tape with the paint color that's under the tape. That usually means letting it dry enough so that it doesn't mix with the color we're cutting in, which can result in rough spots when the tape is lifted. I like this idea of using clear caulk instead and then getting right to it. Maybe I'll try it with clear paint.

I am new to the channel, and own a VERY high end paint company in Vermont. We always cut everything by hand...no tape, and get laser straight lines. Interesting method. It’s interesting how paint company’s have such different processes from one another. Do you notice any kind of flashing doing your walls that way? I could see getting away with it on a flat/matte. But any kind of sheen i would think it would flash. We spray cabs and built-ins the same way you guys do. Except use a extractor fan with a furnace filter retro-fitted on the end to catch paint dust. Very interesting ideas, I will keep watching.

If your taping over a White wall to paint a different colour, just do this, tape first then paint white over the edge your painting a different colour. Let it dry then paint your new colour, the white will have filled the small voids at the edge of the tape, when almost completely dry peel off tape, result, perfect edge!! Just sayin!!!

Interesting technique. I've never seen it before. I'm not a fan of working with caulk, but I'm a bit better than many professionals I've hired through the years. This method never occurred to me as a possibility. For one, I dislike textured walls. It took a long time, but my paster walls in my NYC apartment are glass smooth. I painted 3" stripes, using blue painter's tape. To prevent bleeding, any bleeding at all, I was careful to minimize the amount of paint I rolled onto the tape's edge. With two coats, my stripes turned out great. No bleeding.

crisp lines... try this lets say you are painting swiss coffee semigloss moldings and mocha walls. paint the trim first. then mask off the trim. then the trick-use a flat version of the swiss coffee trim color. let dry. it will seal any gaps and prevent bleed . then paint your color coat. when you pull the tape, the flat paint tears off easily leaving really straight clean lines. we roll brush and paint with this method.

Jeff Borges - Just so I'm confident I understand, do you purchase a 2nd can of trim paint - both cans the same color but each can has a different sheen level? So any surface (usually trim, correct?) that is taped off requires this additional can of paint? And, you don’t experience the problem warned about in this video, that of dry, flat paint sheens cracking when the tape is pulled off? Are you leaving the tape/paint combo on for more than 1 coat of paint? Thanks
@jeffborges7575
@jeffborges7575 3 жыл бұрын
Bethany Anderson yes. Flat paint has less strength so when you pull it off, it tears. If you press the tape well, you won’t have so much seepage. This also allows you to draw a line with a straightedge and follow that perfectly

I've been a painting contractor over 40 year's and have never had to tape baseboards, door casings, countertops, cabinets, or anything to brush a straight crisp line, do all prep work the day before painting, taping is a waste of good time and money, tape is to keep plastic drops in place over cabinets, railings ceiling fans and hanging lights and furniture, get a 2 1/2 inch sash brush and you can cut a straight line to a razor's edge

Jay Line absolutely correct. 28 years for me. Have to look hard in my garage to find tape..

I have to agree with the both of you. I am also a painter 8 years. Prep my walls. Then caulk, wipe, let dry then cut in with a sash brush. The only time I use tape is when the trim work is already finished. And I am only Painting the walls so i put the tape on the top of trim to stop splatters getting onto the already finished trim.

Great video! Thanks! I was dreading doing this against an interior corner with two different wall colours. Feeling a bit more confident now 👍 Good tip about using latex caulking, other videos I've watched haven't mentioned that.

If you watched it, you would have seen that it is several of his videos on using caulking with tape, all put together in one video. That's helpful to someone who wants multiple examples, but for the guy who just wants to see it, he can just watch the first part.

Neat trick I've used many many times over the years for striping, banding etc for exactly the reasons given in the beginning of the video. And as a professional of over 40 years, while I'm not always on board with some of the tools and methods used. Much is more a matter of preference than anything else. Overall for homeowners these videos are not bad advise for your everyday home owner without a lot of experience to get clean straight lines or a generally decent job. As a professional you really should be able to cut in clean almost laser straight lines against your trim without needing tape in most cases. The idea being that if you can cut in a very straight line against your ceiling. You should be able to do it against trim. But that isnt who these videos are generally geared for.

So this was a rough textured wall, you don't need to do this on a smooth wall do you? Sorry I am not going to spend almost 50 minutes watching someone talk about masking tape. If he answered that question, sorry.

Some of us who are new to this, appreciate the detail he goes into. If it's too long for a viewer, they always have the option of quitting or jumping ahead. But if it's too short, without pertinent info, there isn't another option for that viewer, right? ~:-)

Hey just a question. When I used to paint in Idaho, my company boss and all his friends whom were also painters strictly used NCS45 caulk and would not use anything else. Here in California I noticed everyone uses either 950a or 1050a. Any idea on why?
