Condo Reno How to Paint Walls & Ceilings Made Easy/Part 40

Sometimes you look at your baseboard and you might see Let's say I got just the tip here and I'm just gonna wipe off a little bit here I got too much on there Right there. I'm not sure what happened because the uh The line's not crisp Okay I don't think I'll even I even have to cut that back in But the paintbrush it was just a little On the base I think that's good enough there and then if you're going to use the sponge in the right or Wet sponge make sure you You rinse it out each time Because you don't want that paint to dry in your sponge and corners and stuff but If like I say, if you don't have a nice crisp edge on your baseboard Okay, that top edge is going to be hard to cut it in You try it you'll see what i'm talking about and and then Sometimes the light is different The lighting is different Uh, you might get a shadow down there. Your eyes are squinting Uh, you your eyes can get tired after a while You see how i'm I'm putting some paint up high Where the paint roller is missing Where it stopped and i'm just doing that a little bit now i'm gonna go back and cut it down there Cut it in that looks good. It's just a couple little spots right there. Boom Blend it in see where i've left off Slide me down Now painters professional painter. He probably put more paint on his paintbrush and do a section from here down to here in one go You know, he might use a two and a half inch paintbrush And this is oh, this is only a two inch paintbrush Okay Two and a half. Obviously You're gonna have more paint You can hold on it. But see if you put it You get you get some load it up your paintbrush get it on the wall back and forth back and forth because you gotta you gotta blend in the From where your paint roller stopped anyways There I got a lot on there go back and forth. Now. You're taking it all off of the edges Now you can go back down low Okay Yeah Back and forth go down low I see a little hole there. I'm gonna go that way It's still not covered i'm gonna go like that it's a pinhole i'm gonna wiggle my brush Boom that pinhole is gone Is anybody ever going to see that pinhole? Maybe not but when you're when you're painting you see all kinds of stuff when you're down and dirty right down Next to it with your face You know Okay Take it up high blend it in on the wall Do it some more get it off the edge your paintbrush Now go back down there and cut it in Back and forth go down and cut it in back and forth go down and cut it in Go back the other way Where the spray texture Was and it wasn't covering and boom. I got it Okay Repetition, that's all it is You don't have to be a painter you don't have to call a painter And have them charge you an arm and a leg because you don't know how to cut in you know and if you're If you're going to try to oh, i'll just use masking tape I don't know how to cut in but i'm just going to use masking tape that looks too hard, you know Don't do it First off there's no way you're going to get a perfect line with masking tape. I don't care And Your line is only as straight as your masking tape And then once you put your masking tape on you might think oh just i'll just slap the paint on there You get too much of a paint ridge and pull the masking tape off and it peels your paint off the wall or You put your masking tape on And you've got some spray texture behind the masking tape and it doesn't want to fold down nice and tight You know, there's many reasons why the masking tape is just not really Going to be your best friend when when it's ready to do cutting It's way better just to do it this way Crack me up. I even have some professional painters. They painted our house and He's he's he's like i'm gonna paint everything Um with the spray break I said you are you're not going to use a roller No, no, i'm going to spray I said well you got to mask everything off when you paint the walls You have to mask off the base When you when you are done with the walls and you paint the base You got to put your masking tape nice and straight right along there and then paint your baseboard Well, I don't and same thing your lines That's your ceiling you know and I can there's all kinds of places where Where the lines aren't perfect because your ceilings aren't going to be perfectly flat some there's going to be dips. There's going to be Crowns, there's going to be all kinds of stuff on your inside corners And if you don't put that that masking tape on 100 perfect Your line is never going to be 100 perfect. Is it? and I can I can pick that place apart and show you all kinds of imperfections With them putting masking tape up. They're professional painters Now see there's some holes there. So i'm going this way Covers it up back and forth Go back Line it up And you'd be surprised you may think I can't do a straight line like that. Joe Well, you get the right type of paintbrush Um with the angle on there And this is just a little one no long handle And um, it kind of has a rubbery end so I can kind of contour it in my hand And it actually works It works out pretty good. This is the first time on this job that I've decided to use this Brush because I usually use a two and a half inch cut and paint brush But it's getting a little old and tired And it still works pretty good. But uh, I thought ah Was that I was at the home depot and I saw this and I thought i'd give it a shot. I'll give it a whirl and And it's working out really good See how I have to keep going over it because there's spray texture on there man, it just takes a little bit of doing but you just Have some patience If you want to get this thing done in a couple hours and you don't have any patience This is not going to be for you newsflash You probably already know that See now I gotta now I gotta wiggle that because there's some little indentations And they're gone kaboom gonzo And now i've got to be careful when I go around the corner because this is bullnose trim On the sheet rock. It's not Square pointing outside corners And so i've got to just take my time because if I go too fast i'm going to hit the base I'm going to hit the base as i'm going around the curve on it Okay there That this is that I don't know if you can see that but it looks pretty straight to me Let's let's just uh show you I get around this corner here And i'm just gonna i'm just gonna take my time. Hey today. It's all about me painting baseboard. I got No care in the world My only job Is to worry about this base. Okay That's it There Look at that Haven't even gotten around the corner yet But that's okay And you don't have to put the whole thing on there. Okay, i'm going to take a little bit of that off And I see i'm only going to use just that little bit And curve it around curve it curve it Take it up here slide it down I'm, just sliding the paintbrush down see there I just slid the paintbrush right down to where I wanted it Get you over here now See i'm still i'm still working from What left to right? Get most of the paint off there Got a little bit of paint on there We'll just do a little bit like that now i'm going to come down And see where I need to be right there boom there I mean, how much straighter do you want it my word? I couldn't get it any straighter than that with with masking tape if I wanted done see Look at that Okay Now I have to do that. Well, I can't go from left to right there. Can I? I'm gonna have to do that A little bit differently. I'm gonna have to go from right to left. I'm over in here Hopefully hopefully you'll be able to You'll be able to kind of see See this so I just keep I kind of like this little piece of cardboard Because before I was picked trying to pick it up and slide it. I don't need much paint on here. Do I? You see i've got an inside corner here. What am I going to do with an inside corner? First off hardly any paint i'm going to kind of try to come in here at an angle 45 degree angle like that With the tip see there Now I can raise that up Do it again Wiggle it to get that paint on there Come up I hope my hat wasn't in the way when I did that here Let's let's try this like that Get it in there wiggle it Come up Now see there's a little bit that's missing right in there. I just put a little bit of paint on the tip Now I can go down the other way Okay Clean that up right there like that I only want a little bit of paint on here. I don't want to have to spooge it all On here now see I still have a little bit to go I'm, just going to get a little on there Wipe my tip off put it in there and Curve it around there See there's a little bit of white showing there. I'm just going to kind of wiggle Wiggle that wiggle there Yeah, it takes a little bit of doing yep but just There there that's good Oh, yeah The things that make me excited Okay There you go He's being a painter If you've been with me i've been painting the wall down to the top edge of the baseboard I've already painted the baseboards before And I wasn't too concerned if I got a little bit of that white paint of the baseboard onto the wall See all the way along there Look at that See, uh, I didn't really care about that because i'm going to come back and paint that and that's what this video is about Okay, you want to see me do that stick around?
