Looks really good

[@localsouptalks]

The roof looks great! 👍

[@saezell1]

Paint the rest of the barn same color as your front door. That would look cool. So proud of your accomplishments with this house!! Another great job.

[@diyfferent]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@BrandiSC1]

It looks great! As a viewer I appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to filming everything you can. I know all the different camera angles and editing can't be the easiest when you are simultaneously trying to get these big projects done. You two are amazing people!!

[@diyfferent]

Thank you :)

[@jeannawalton8107]

The roof looks so good!

[@lifescomplacencies5220]

Looks excellent! I know the feeling of wanting to quit or burn it down in the middle of a project! The end result always makes it worth it. Good job!

[@kimberlyhowardmercer7507]

Love it awesome job

[@MrJeffm66]

Wow, now that's a transformation from rusty to looking like new. I will have to check into the stuff you used.

[@poohiehere1364]

Rewatching because I can’t even watch the Olympics for wholesome viewing. 🥺Your content is a blessing. 💕

[@kathleenmccall2671]

Doug, when I was 13 I painted our 3 terraced roofs one summer. It was the best tan I ever had, like you I was thrilled when the job was over. You and Ashley are smart to spread this renovation project out over several small manageable projects, you never know what you will find, what unexpected materials and $$$ you might need. Looking forward to the next step in your homestead build.

[@trinam2503]

The bucket platform was genius!! And I loved today's music :) that is an amazing transformation!! I totally get the wanting to quit, or take a break. But it really is so nice to see a project finished! Thank you again for sharing your journey with us. You inspire so many.

[@sheila220947]

Aw love that nothing goes to waste you make what you need and it works everything has a purpose totally talented doug xx

[@sam-and-angela]

Very nice looking and hooray for a one-day-and-done job! :-)

[@diyfferent]

Yea, didn't want that job dragging onto another day, so glad it's over! I bet you wish your roof went that quick too, haha :)

[@ldysfm]

You 2 are the hardest working couple I have ever seen! I applaud you! You’re doing a fantastic job and I love to see the progress. Thank you for sharing with us your journey.

[@lechatbotte.]

The music, made it like watching a slow mo ballet. Excellent job we used to do our buildings on the farm. Great way to renew and not spend a fortune.

[@edwardthompson1589]

Great job as always. The way you patched hole in wall so rain couldn't come in was genius. I wouldn't have thought of it. Very seamless.

[@diyfferent]

thanks!

[@GeorgeStephen1959]

Awesome job on the Roof Painting and great looking too, and the Bucket Platform was a great idea too, well done 😎👍👌👏

[@HyacinthDaisyRose]

Roof looks great, it's so satisfying to see the instant improvement. :) Maverick was so cute before you mixed the coating. He was just enjoying it and smiling like he was thinking how fun it'll be when he's big enough to help Dad with all the projects. :D

[@chcnsac]

Great job! 👏🏻 Looks so much better. Can’t wait to see what color you’re going to paint the siding. 💓

[@R3dgarnet]

Your videos always make me so happy! I love watching you and Ashley turn something old in to something new! Absolutely astonishing. Very beautifully done. It looks good. Can’t wait what you come up with next time! 😆😆😆

[@mimilove5698]

Awsome job Doug and Ashley😊💪💪 The roof looks amazing!❤ can't wait to see the next step in the barn renovation.😁❤

[@eeyore57ful]

Looks like a whole new roof!

[@jenthrasher5056]

Roof turned out great. Well done

[@Beecozz7]

Y'all are amazing!!! Well done!!! TY

[@sherylynhilyard3402]

Looks amazing

[@celiarosa7599]

Wao I have that kind of roof. I changed two times allready. I didnt know that product exist. Thanks a lot. God bless you.❤

[@MommaOG]

Your work ethic is as amazing as your skill bravo well done🥰💐🌷

[@iceangel1701d]

At the end of this video the thumbnail popped up with you all covered in mud and I busted out laughing - AGAIN! Too funny, still can't believe you did that!! lol

[@hangdogit2]

Very informative and very clear presentation -- one of the best DIY i've ssen!

[@auntiepam5649]

You did another excellent job.

[@kemberlyhappylife641]

looks brand new...love it

[@Christa10]

Amazing!!! You guys work awesome together to get things done. Maverick is so cute in his sweat shirt. Does it have dinosaurs on it? Love your videos & you have cool music to do with them.

[@diyfferent]

Yeah, dinosaurs drawn like constellations, sort of.

[@cgtanker74]

Looks great! Keep up the awesome work.

[@stephenoshaughnessy2279]

A nice, lyrical video with the music.

[@firetoy911]

how did it hold up? is a rust converter necessary as an earlier step?

[@diyfferent]

We don't live there anymore so we don't know what it looks like now, but the bucket says it's good for 7 years. I would say an initial rust converter isn't _necessary,_ but optional depending on your own personal needs. This product contains a rust inhibitor.

[@sharjo52]

So happy for y’all! Able and willing to improve y’all place, all that y’all have done is awesome!

[@elizabethharttley4073]

Vast improvement Enjoyed the editing and music. Now we guess about the color: Red White Navy All three

[@Realscanuzi]

The rust was not removed its going thru the colour in a few years

[@anytractorman]

Lot of work, but as all your projects ,you have pride in the job you both do.

[@kiml1508]

Everything is looking so good! Y'all are doing a fantastic job on the homestead there. I can't wait to see when everything is done and y'all can do more with the garden and animals!

[@connimace258]

Amazing what a little or alot of paint can do.

[@belengerp4858]

Awesome job

[@jamesthepuerilis]

nice job, looks so much neater

[@diyfferent]

Thanks!

[@jamesthepuerilis]

@@diyfferent are there any benefit to adding multiple layers of that fiber paint, just curious.

[@diyfferent]

@@jamesthepuerilis I don't think they want multiple coats applied. The manufacturer says to just apply one coat liberally.

[@beatricebee4809]

Doug, you really are superman! Great job guys. Can't wait to see what color you're going to paint.

[@litehold1144]

Wow, that looks great! That was a lot of hard work.

[@allisonhemmings9290]

That was an amazing transformation, the roof was sound but I couldn’t see it because of the old paint. I love watching those big reveal at the end videos - can’t wait

[@dianecharles881]

Doug it looks beautiful, looks brand new!! I love it !! Don’t give up !!!

[@deboralintner6223]

You all are so inspiring!🌻

[@bigdaddycain8561]

Love watching how you improve stuff! Awsome content! Even videos are improving!

[@sandym3400]

Looks great!! now get Belle up there to paint a large vintage advertisement! Lol just kidding but wouldn't that be cool!

[@sugarsweet8598]

Very satisfying. Curious what prep work was required for that coat. Looks nice. Wish you had given us a close up of the product dried. Wonder if it looks texture like fiberglass? Amazing progress. Great color.

[@diyfferent]

All we did was sweep it off and fix some of the loose nails. Since it was applied with the brush, it has a thick lined texture :) Thanks!

[@JAY-CRA]

Roof looks great and smart move on that plant farm for the paint bucket I would never thought of it👏🏾👍🏾💯

[@diyfferent]

Thanks! (plant farm, haha. I know what you mean though.)

[@darlenepeters4396]

What a great idea for the bucket on the roof .Looking forward to other things .❤❤

[@suesmith5033]

Wow the roof looks like you put up new metal. Looks great!

[@retagorman4351]

Very nice roof job. Other day u took us on walk in woods. Next time we go, can u take metal detectors? Soon snow be back. So much fun last year looking for stuff.

[@leem200]

A huge job looks nice.

[@withoutadoubt9091]

Wow ! that looks amazing

[@Susi-Saks]

The roof looks "NEW" what a good job...

[@fab4gal834]

Wow! You just never cease to amaze me. What a transformation! I had no idea a broom would be used to apply the product! Your editing is absolutely superb!

[@mamabearandcubs7701]

Keep going your both doing a fabulous job Roof looks great, what a huge difference! 👌🌈

[@xmassi1]

Looks good, looking forward to what's next on your agenda.

[@diannephillips2689]

So fun to watch. I'm a big fan of doing things right the first time around. You are such a prime example of research and execution in a practical manner with long lasting choices. Simple is better and you have done it again. Look forward to seeing what the rest of your plans are for your barn and watching you get it done. We are extremely smokey here in Oregon but fortunate for our safety, as thousands have lost their homes and livelihood. I know your fall is coming soon - stay safe and warm.

[@diyfferent]

I can't imagine being over there with all that going on. I hope someone can step up and put a stop to it. I hope you all can get some fresh air coming through soon.

[@diannephillips2689]

@@diyfferent So many firefighters risking their lives; independent local firehouses and their teams too - many of which lost their own homes continue the battle. It's the natural evolution of forests to burn and regrow, but frightening when the wind is blowing in a not-expected direction and conditions are drier than the norm.

[@diyfferent]

​@@diannephillips2689 Unfortunately these fires were not caused by nature, but rather humans. These particular fires were all intentionally started by certain people and a certain political Party (D) is doing it to try to ruin our country in any possible way they can, especially because of the election coming up. We've seen many non-mainstream articles showing the many people who have been caught intentionally lighting brush fires along highways and such. One guy was caught lighting a fire, and then they released him because they like to release criminals over there, and then he was caught starting 6 more fires. It's just sad that people are willing to do such horrible things because of an agenda.

[@patriciaboyd1199]

Impressive transformation !

[@kathycortez232]

Wow it looks brand new you did awesome job tyfs hugs and prayers

[@zeamays]

Great editing and effects, it's like a ballet. "my feet hurt" -- Not that its any of our business, but have you ever explained why your whole family wears delicate looking "ballet slippers" instead of sturdy shoes or boots, even while working on challenging projects around a lot of sharp stuff? DIYfferent indeed! You must really love that footwear, do you have a link?

[@JOHN315420]

good job with the editing that takes time

[@magshodges917]

Amazing stuff, barn roof looks great.

[@islandgardener158]

Really interested to know if that product stops the leaks. I hope you do a vid when you get a big rain.

[@diyfferent]

It's a fibered coating and it seals small holes. When I was putting it on it seemed to cover some of the nail holes really well.

[@GrandmaGaye]

Working through the "I want to quit" moments are the most rewarding parts of my day. You should be well pleased with what you've done. Keep on keeping on

[@nk14zp]

Nice job. I'm putting a galvalume roof on and plan to coat it as soon as I can.

[@diyfferent]

Thanks! Consider buying pre-painted panels. They last a long time and it might even be cheaper in the end.

[@rodrigodossantosaraujo3287]

Hi. I like your videos. Im brazilian! Congratulations.

[@kenactofkindness4017]

rust converter first would help. nice look

[@michaelm6091]

Can you recommend a good rust converter? Thanks

[@nia3658]

Great job!

[@agresticumbra]

Grateful y’all have that out of the way. Is the chicken coop roof metal as well?

[@diyfferent]

Yeah but it's new so we'll leave that one as it is.

[@dabprod]

Nice job.

[@elviscobb5922]

I was reviewing some of you older remodels. Your channel began at the Indiana House. Then the Indiana Red and White Vintage Home. Then the current Michigan Home. Is that right? I'm trying to go back and see those videos.

[@diyfferent]

Yeah, that's correct :)

[@brendagillespie2805]

Wow that looks way way better. Are all rhe out buildings goi g to be the same color? God Bless

[@diyfferent]

No :) Thanks

How to blow thousands of calories no gym membership required !! Looks great!

[@jessicapedroso528]

Crazy question. What type of shoes does Doug have that he works in all the time.? Looks comfortable.

[@diyfferent]

In this video he was wearing a moccasin-type slipper. They had good grip and he didn't care about getting them messy.

[@KerryTarnow]

How long have you been building? You make everything look easy!

[@diyfferent]

Long time, over a decade, maybe even 2. :)

[@Jo.H.]

Look’s great, totally transformed the roof. Well done both 😊

Who are the 5 idiots that disliked this video?

There will always be Negative Nancys who enjoy putting people down - why? just because - - wouldn't want to live in their skin - how awful to always look on the dark side, even when there isn't one. We will just have to "keep on the sunny side" while we encourage others.
