A pleasure to watch your video and a bonus listening to the birds 🐦 I've started scraping plain double metal gates and wished I hadn't started them lol its extremely hard work, phew, but I will try my best even if I do a bit at a time. I bought red oxide primer and dark grey paint for outside wood/metal. Fingers crossed 🤞
@@catherinethomson6136 it is hard work time consuming. Radio on and relax into it. I actually enjoy switching off and listening to music and work. Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed the video.
I am currently working on a wrought iron bakers rack and boy do the curly cues on your fence look familiar. The loveliest part of your video was the sound of the birds singing in the background, thank you. And why do my hands look so much worse than yours? I have been wearing gloves.
i guess im asking randomly but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot my login password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
@Jayceon Judson I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I hate doing our two 6 ft driveway gates. Next time Iam thinking of doing the prep and then spraying them with rattle cans. I figure the extra I spent on paint will be money well spent on saving time on my knees.
Great video, as always. Wish I'd seen it a few months ago, as I've made bit of a pig's ear of a job I did using and all-in-one Hammerite product. Would you have used Metalshield if you had the choice?
If I was doing larger gates can the rust converter be left overnight in rain/winter weather before zinc primer applied next day? I can’t get them prepped and rust treated and primed in one day and I’m expecting rain ?? Thanks
Kitchen waste or toilet waste is sewers. But only waste water really should go down any solvents should not go down any drains, as I now know. Your local tip will collect waste solvents. Thanks
I prefer to use owatrol oil on any rust followed by spotting in with zinc oxide. I've found owatrol to be farr better than kurust. Also owatrol in my undercoat and top coat, about 3/4 a cap owstrol to 1 litre paint.
I'm painting a similar gate 3times the size with similar pattern and 20 spikes/tips on top. It has rust, 2 layers of flaking paint and I want to shoot myself in the foot.
I need to paint my daughter’s scrollwork that encloses her terrace house verandah. It has some hollow framework that has completely rusted through and will need bog. 🤦♀️

This is a job well done with more patience than I can usually muster. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

Thank you.. oh don't you believe it. That was just luck🤣🤣
A broken hacksaw blade is useful to get rust off in the tight nooks and crannies. Must be one of the worst items to prep & paint.

@Darwin Ellis You are welcome :D
Who else learning this art in 2020
How long should I wait before light sanding the primer and undercoat layers with P180?
Oil paint needs at least 16 hours. Some water based are based left till the next day. Thanks

leave it till the next day before applying the rust converter
thanks
@@PaintingandDecorating sorry what I meant was if I rust treat it and go home and it rains later that night am I safe
Fantastic job as always but Once all cleaned and scraped of would it not of been easier to have used Rust oleum combi colour?
Well done fella, you have more patience than me
Thanks.
@@PaintingandDecorating What would you charge for a job like this?
@@kcorpora1 Sorry no details every job is different.
Why didn’t you use spray paint?
Too much fuss.
@@PaintingandDecorating looking to start a paint job and trying to decide on traditional vs spray paint. Can you elaborate on the too much fuss?
Edwin Hernadez. Can use a brush or a mini roller or a sprayer with the right tip. To ease the overspray
@@PaintingandDecorating it’s not easy aye? Hahaha
Nasty jobs those, I just had my gate dipped much easier. Why do you need a primer and an undercoat, what difference does it make if one was omitted?
The primer has a rust inhebiter in it paints have different properties. Thanks
@@PaintingandDecorating Ahh good to know, I have separate question wonder if you know how I can render a brick wall if painted? Thanks
How do you know if it’s a sewer drain or a freshwater drain?
Kitchen waste or toilet waste is sewers. But only waste water really should go down any solvents should not go down any drains, as I now know. Your local tip will collect waste solvents. Thanks
buy some abranet sanding mesh a lot more flexible really good stuff !
Looks amazing.
Thank you.
great Job, nice to see Zinc Primer on the bare Rust/Metal works a treat nice Job and a great Clip
Not my fav type of work, a real pain to be honest. You executed it well . Top job pal. 👍🏻👍🏻

Also owatrol in my undercoat and top coat, about 3/4 a cap owstrol to 1 litre paint.
Thanks for this video. It is very help for the newbie. I have some wrought iron on the windows and this really helps
Very nice job!🙂
Wht is price for paint this gaite
How long did it take you just wondering.
And how much would work like this cost
Great job budd.
Thank you mate. 👍
Do you take jobs in London?
Nice job mate
Thanks! Very helpful!
that's what I call a gate is shame is not a black top work.
Good as new. Quite a painstaking process.
You do a proper job and just use basic tools, nice
Wouldn`t it be easier using a heat gun?
“It’s not easy”
Great dedication to a balls ache job. I'd be lazy and use rattle cans👍
Thanks
🖌👍. Painting gates with scroll work 😲😲😲😢😭
Nice one, thanks
take gate off hinges
Looks great. One of my least favourite kind of jobs to be honest.
Thanks, totally agree and that's the small gate.
I'm painting a similar gate 3times the size with similar pattern and 20 spikes/tips on top. It has rust, 2 layers of flaking paint and I want to shoot myself in the foot.
Head down and crack on and stick the radio on.. 🙂
I agree headphones on and it just came to me, pressure washer and blast all that flaking paint away and then sand the rest by hand.
I need to paint my daughter’s scrollwork that encloses her terrace house verandah. It has some hollow framework that has completely rusted through and will need bog. 🤦♀️
I just use spray paint, mush quicker but like your work
I have 30 years experience of my own never had any complaints
What would you charge for a job like this?
That's NOT wrought iron, it's steel, that's why it's rusting like that. So your video should be called 'painting steel'.
What a pain in the neck ! , Iron fences should be illegal !
