Yesterday I was reviewing the You Tube videos on how to paint a wall or room.
It was not a pretty site. From the Australian one that has a guy on the top step of a ladder holding a full roller tray of paint like a pizza delivery guy.
Then the painter using a three quarter inch pile roller sleeve (250mil). The correct roller sleeve pile is 10 mil for interior walls by the way. Any longer and you get a very rough looking texture on the wall. The other bad one showed all the trim taped with masking tape. He must have shares in 3M.
There are some OK ones and here is a link. Although don't listen to the no dropsheet part, use one or you will get paint on your floor.
Back rolling is also important, and is missed by many painting videos, probably because they don't know about it. Back rolling.
Also, using a roller tray to load your roller is OK and better than a five gallon bucket for most home owners. The final tip is try to avoid getting paint on the axle of the roller cage as you reload the roller. This will drip both on the floor as you lift the loaded roller up and down the wall as you paint. Our site has reliable information on home painting. Expect a video from us soon.
