Painting render

[@shizzlemedizz]

One problem with this guide,, Gliddens endurance masonry paints your using do not require new or sound render to be stabilised. Just thin the first coat to prime. Key to good decorating is always read the product info & data sheets! Just a tip from a decorator of 20 years! Note: Do not seal sound new or bare surfaces with stabilising primer. Do not apply Glidden Endurance Smooth Masonry Paint during wet or frosty weather.

its dead handy getting the proper product info on this channel. id be quite confident just mist coating small patches if youre fixing up and old wall with a few bits of damaged render

[@ultimatehandyman]

Thanks for the comment 👍

[@MrIknowbest2]

great vid...but always stand the paint kettle or paint tin on top of a dust sheet, just in case you have any accidents ;0)

[@benny5825]

Did you render the wall,i like the finsh.

[@MiahLFC]

Great Video again... I'm thinking of removing old flakey paint off my external bay windows... what do you suggest?

[@johnderizzo4784]

Sand it well with 120 grit sandpaper, dust down, apply 2 coats water based undercoat 1 coat water based enamel

[@lazylad9064]

I was glad it was a sunny day when you started to paint (b)

[@ultimatehandyman]

We don't get many of those where I live ;-)

[@scottmclean4237]

Excellent thank you, after watching your bath panel video unused zinseer and ktmjs genuinely amazing. Have you a video on the sprayer you used, i hermit can be tricky getting them spryers right.

[@ultimatehandyman]

You are welcome. I have used the Wagner sprayer but have not had time to make a review video of it yet. Hopefully I'll get time to review it in the next few weeks. Thanks for the comments

[@bandsman4923]

Thank you

[@ultimatehandyman]

You're welcome Thanks for the comment 👍

[@ellemxx]

Thank you, good tips and advice :)

[@scottmclean4237]

That would be great as I'm looking to move house over nxt 5 weeks. No pressure haha

[@JR-ze5xc]

Hi, when you next need to paint the wall do you apply straight over the old paint (having removed flakes etc) or do you need to strip it? Thanks

[@ultimatehandyman]

You can paint straight over as long as the existing paint is sound and you have removed any loose/flaking material.

[@JR-ze5xc]

Great, that's the answer I wanted! Many thanks for your help.

[@johnjones4149]

hi I just thought I would ask. can you recommend a good white gloss paint. that can be used to paint door frames and bannisters in a very busy place where there likely to be knocked about a bit.? thankyou

[@ultimatehandyman]

+John Jones The Zinsser All coat seems durable and dries extremely quickly for a water based product. The gloss finish is not as shiny as you would expect to get from an oil based gloss though.kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5fLhZl7bd6jjLc

[@johnjones4149]

+Ultimate Handyman oh okay thankyou very much for getting back to me

[@JohnUk65]

did you render with lime plasters as rendering a wall can cause serious damp problems as you well know cheers!!

[@ultimatehandyman]

The mix had integral water proofer mixed in with it and some lime to help with thermal movement. Thanks for the comment

[@oldpadawan]

i have recently had sand and cement render skimmed over blockwork, do you advice to seal it or just go straight to painting - thanks

[@ultimatehandyman]

garythe bong You should just be able to give it a mist coat then a top coat on top. The paint will tell you how to dilute it for the mist coat ;-)

[@upendrahanglimbu164]

Hi, how long should you wait to dry before painting top new rendered? I have fromt gable end top front rendered of porch!

[@ultimatehandyman]

You need to wait until it is completely dry, which can be several days. I can't give an exact time frame, as there are too many variables, such as depth of render, temperature etc.

[@jackwardley3626]

best to wait about 6 weeks for render 2 weeks for plaster

[@scottmclean4237]

Hy, helpful video as ever. I'm planning on painting my current pebble dash in my house iv jus bought, over the next couple months. Have you any tips an advice regarding this? I assume I won't need to put a stabilizer solution on first? Jus make sure its all clean and debris free, or is there a product I can buy to help protect the surface. Ideally a spray may e as painting p-dash is a nightmare already . Thanks

[@ultimatehandyman]

I'd take a look at Zinsser Permawhite, it is a self priming paint that contains a mould inhibitor. You can use it on brick or stone, so it should be suitable for pebble dash. I have sprayed it onto two garage doors using a Wagner sprayer and the results were fantastic.

[@sylviasmithson6305]

how long do you leave render before painting pls.

[@ultimatehandyman]

+Sylvia Smithson If it's new render you should leave it as long as possible to dry out fully, preferably a few weeks or more.

[@sylviasmithson6305]

many thanks

[@floyd666uk]

showing off going on about your decent sized brush.

[@oldpadawan]

not sealer then?, or could i seal to be on the safe side

[@ultimatehandyman]

garythe bong It depends which paint you are using. If you have a look on the tin it will tell you how to apply it. There is no definitive answer I'm afraid as it depends on the paint. I asked in the decorating centre if I needed to seal the render first and they said I did, but then a few decorators said I didn't need to and could have just applied a mist coat first!

[@petebuck9889]

Guy in the Dulux shop told me never stir masonry paint with anything metal. It reacts with the paint apparently

[@ultimatehandyman]

I've not heard that before 🤔 Thanks for the comment 👍
