| "Great video!"
Great video! Painting the exterior of home is a huge undertaking. There is a lot of surface area out there, and failing to properly prepare and cover each surface will result in paint that peels and flakes all too quickly. Thanks for sharing the valuable tips which are very helpful. |
| As a homeowner, I am quite interested to improve the exterior parts of my house. I believe that aside from improving the interiors by putting furniture and painting it, making improvement outside is also important. I am pleased to see these videos which give some tips about painting the house. But aside from beautification I am also concerned about the strong foundation of the house against any natural disaster. |
| Painting your house is pretty important and it can really fix up the look of your place. My tips would always be to check and see how the color of your house fits with the rest of your yard as well as the neighborhood, and also to try some of color out on some surface which is outdoors before you start painting your house. I had a neighbor who wanted a nice pale yellow house, but ended up with a very bright sunny house. |
| Remodeling the house truly is a huge challenge to many. Especially for those people who have less time and less ideas on what to do with their homes. And it is really great to actually find some great tips in bringing out the best out of your own place. Painting surely would bring so much troubles to anybody as well. Like me, I find it hard to mix and match colors as well. |
| "Good post!"
I think that the fastest and best way to get the body of house painted is with an airless paint sprayer. They can be rented from rental yards and many paint stores. You must need to take great care to cover and mask windows, bushes and anything else you do not want painted. I would say that never try spraying your gutters because over spray will drift onto the roof and that will never get rid of it.[deleted]/ |
