Agreed. Remove all plate covers and reduce cut. Also, when it comes to cleaning naps, I don't spend any long than it takes me to get the nap off the frame and dispose of it. Naps are really inexpensive and if you use it correctly, you should only need one for your entire project. A really useful tip is to load your brush or nap with material and then wrap it in plastic anytime you have to pause painting more than 10 or 15 minutes (or for a weekend). Just unwrap and get back to work. I keep all my Lowes/HomeDepot bags for this purpose. Saves a lot of time.

[@kevmeren8543]

Yep👍

[@WMills-mi7xy]

You are awesome, I kept all my naps covered in bags and they lasted a week until I got off work and was able to paint some more again , thanks for the tip

[@paesan59]

Instead of putting foil around wall plate it is much easier to remove the wall plate. Seen some crazy ideas on how to cut around wall plates but this beats them all. First thing I do when painting a room is removing all the wall plates and put them in a bucket of water with some TSP. Plates get cleaned while also making it much easier to paint around switches and sockets.

Ok the tool you made for getting paint out of the roller is already a thing. It's called a 5 in 1. The drill trick is cool and the rolling pole is better when it's made for painting. One that extends and retracts. The comb idea is the same as a wire comp or and actual brush comb you can get them all at your home Depot or any paint supply store.

[@franciscody9622]

To clean brush or roller used for emulsion (water-based) paint just soak them completely in clean water overnight. All the paint will come off. Just rinse them once in clean water and dry.

[@dannymatona3506]

Wow! Genius. Give the man a peanut.

[@WMills-mi7xy]

Tell you what instead of using the coping saw and file to make the roller cleaner , how about a 2 inch drum sander to hone the cutout or use a cutting wheel on a Dremel tool ,and last but not least depending on the plastic type you could use a pair of heavy duty curved shears , cheers

Aluminium foil is more expensive than masking tape, even cheaper just release the screws from the plug or switch to paint the wall, when you refix the plug it is perfect. Also feels unsafe to use aluminium around electrical sockets

[@michalzajic8602]

That guy in video never painted room all his gadgests are just LMFAO exept that drill cleaning

[@santimelm5232]

Si, es cierto y más rápido

[@Mic_Glow]

Cheaper/ faster if everything goes according to plan... in old buildings outlets/ switches might have loose parts inside, worn-out screws, 70 year old insulation that will crumble, maybe even aluminium wires that break... or improperly (too much) removed insulation, so to avoid a short or shock best to turn breakers off... then you need to manage lights and extension cords.

Instead of a comb, I use a fine wire brush. 👍🏻

[@deathblosomrules]

What size rod is used for the paint bucket cleaning?

[@vbrad5111]

Right from the start, buy a decent brush...not some 89 cent throwaway from the dollar store. From there, a small stainless bristle wire brush will do an infinitely better job cleaning the gunked paint out of it. Always pull outlet and switch plates. A $4 5-in-1 tool scrapes excess paint out of covers, serves as a can opener, and a putty knife when you need it. Any reasonably decent roller handle will not come apart like that. Besides, you WANT the cover separate to make sure it doesn't stick to the handle when the paint dries in the places your water doesn't get to. A decent 4-6 Wooster extension pole will let you get most wall and ceiling work done, and will screw onto broom heads to use in the garage. This is almost as bad as tv shows showing folks how to do CPR wrong.

[@garytaylor1020]

It was bad A broom handle was a killer Foil around a socket just looking for a shock The paint brush I would throw away after use All in all a cheap and lazy painter

By chance?? Great!!! Knowing these tricks well, even a woman can try it, right? 😊😊 Thank you very much for your ideas. I wish you all the best👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗

[@neilstevenson3903]

Rollers are cheap as chips. Wrap in a plastic shopping bag between use, seal with a rubber band. Don’t mess about gunking up your drill, which cost more than a roller! Chuck the roller after use. For electric switches, back plates, isolate power, unscrew about a quarter of an inch or one centimetre. Wipe off to clean. Use cling film to wrap plate, tucking it behind the plate. Saves disconnection of electric and any probs if you are a bit wary of leccy.

[@neilstevenson3903]

Also vacuum out the back /mounting box at the same time.Cleanliness and prep are important.

[@geordie3535]

So using an extension to roll the ceiling and high walls how do you cut in the corners!

[@JackisBlessed]

With a brush.

[@rondeme]

Or you can simply buy disposable brushes and rollers and throw them out at the end of the day Or you can simply just remove the power socket cover and paint around. Or for about $2 you can buy a roller cleaner, which incidentally will clean the entire roller in one movement Nothing new about the extended handle for the roller, OK, you got me about spinning the roller in water, I haven't tried that one and I don't think I ever will As for trade secrets, I think not.....

[@williammcintyre8570]

You should also run your cleaner fluid through the metal brush holder. That's why it is not attached with glue . It allows to push paint out

[@dongxialiu2002]

The foil won't make a straight line, even you can, it takes more time than taking off the cover for paint. There are pro tools to clean up the brush and squeeze the paint from roller. If painting a lot, suggest use the pro tool, easy to use, safe, and durable

[@davidg.4911]

You can squeeze paint from a roller for hours, especially after using it all day and they're saturated with paint. Either you throw it away or let it soak and continue to try to get the paint out. At around 3-4 bucks apiece, it's simply not worth the effort it takes to clean them. However, the idea of using centrifugal force to clean is seems like a great idea. The only problem is attaching it to the drill.

[@andrewostrelczuk406]

Having lived in Germany, this doesn’t work the same way as American electric switch, outlet, internet, or cable plates! They for one (in Germany) operate on 220 volt systems, and 50 Hertz or Cycles. The outlets have been made so that they can be inserted into wet Plaster, and to remove them is a lot more work and can damage the wall area around the outlet! Then that leads to more repairs than you could have imagined. The fact that you have to hire a Licensed electrician, licensed plumber, licensed interior design specialist, licensed painter, and several more for interior home work, becomes extremely cost inhibitive! Fact you move into an Apartment or home, you have to bring your own kitchen cabinetry and many more things, that we expect to be part of the household when we buy it or rent it! And there are some contracts for any rental property that tell you even who you can hire to do the home improvements. Painting and Wall papering are still something that you can do without much pain, as long as you are not pounding a nail in your wall or removing outlet covers... Once at my In-laws house they were having some work done to install some outlets and switches on the wall of their kitchen just inside of the door. (where we would naturally put them here) I would expected to see for example a 3” wide cut out in the wall from the ceiling down to the outlet level 16”-18” above the floor, then across at that level to the door framing and up to the normal switch height and a box installed on the inside of the wall fastened to the inside of the door frame with some “Sleepers” to support the Drywall when it was all done you would never know that say 20’ x3” was carved out. There in this case, a chiseled passage was diagonally cut in the Face from the Ceiling to the switch and outlet! Hey it’s rock and plaster on the face... and the houses are built to stand up for 150+ years! Look at the houses that were destroyed in Ukraine the roofs are supported by Wood frameworks the rest of the houses are made of stone plaster, fiber blocks are new, like a cinder block but light and structurally strong. But I guess my point is almost lost already. The best tricks of the trade may not apply here, but they are still great ideas for overseas or in alternative building practices, to our own wood houses...

First of all…. They make this thing called a. 5 in 1 tool. Clean your roller with that. Or do it the easy way with a five gallon bucket and a jet stream nozzle for your garden hose. Secondly, get a decent brush and just cut around that fixture like a grown up. Don’t get too much paint on your brush, paint is designed to go on in two coats anyways. Thirdly, use an adjustable painter pole with the click-in roller frame. Those don’t come unscrewed while you are using it. They make them in various sizes.
