    Wow, what a doozy of a painting project this turned into, but at least we had fun. 🙃 We definitely thought we had found the perfect paint color in that cedar tone but, we're glad we made the switch to the rust/red color instead. Learning as we go around here! Be sure to keep an eye on our website, as we'll be updating it with more photos of the progress. www.toddandrob.com Also, looking forward to a Q&A video next, so what questions do you have for us?

    The barn red looks much better than the orange. Looks great with the black rails. Good job guys!

    Howdy Boys!! Using a long nap roller head is great for getting into the cracks. That cedar color looks more like ripe pumpkin! With the "barn red" you'll be making a "Valentine's Day" theme! You guys are just to cute together!!! You two must be the best cuddle buddies! You might consider a charcoal gray for the house. I'm sure that what ever colors you choose with be just too fab for words!! Big Hugs & Tugs from Ohio!!!!!!!

    🎉 greetings from coastal Mississippi. The red barn colour was the best choice. My papa was a painter, he taught me everything I know. 😅

  • @RT3319

    Excellent color choice - it will wear well with time. Speaking of: Having the pumpkin layer underneath it will be beneficial in the long run - extra protection for the wood - especially with the high humidity. Ah, yes, I saw the "bug light" glowing up on the railing - even in the middle of the day. When I lived on the west side of the Cascade Mountains here in the Pacific Northwest, the mosquitos could be awful. One could hear the bug light "zapping" them all night - with some of the large bugs literally going down in flames. Always enjoy your videos - your integrity and down-to-earth values. You do the rest of us proud - excellent ambassadors for the gay community. Blessing, this day, and always..!!!

    • @toddandrob
      @toddandrob  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh yes, that bug light has been a blessing for us during these summer evenings. The zapping confused Wally at first though. Hah. And yep, we were glad the orange helped with the extra protection at least.

      Comin' right up! We loosely followed this recipe:

      1 cup peach nectar
      1/2 cup orange juice
      mixed frozen fruit (blueberries, peaches, strawberries)
      Mix, pour over ice, garnish with fresh fruit, and enjoy!

    I have to admit that I could not believe that you guys chose that horrid colour for your deck after the great choices you chose for the inside of your mountain house. I love the red that you chose as it helps to hi-light the black rails. I am glad you guys are taking your time and not rushing to get all things done. I do not drink as I had a problem with alcohol, but your sangria looked so good. I decided on drinking some H2O to celebrate your painting and congrats on your wedding anniversary.

    • @toddandrob

    As a guy who already bought a vintage Halloween Trick-Or-Treat pumpkin bucket in July, I agree that the black and orange is too much. I really like the black on the railings but would probably have gone with a moss green on the deck. The sangria looks delish! 😂

    • @toddandrob

    • @toddandrob
      @toddandrob  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not to worry, the orange ended up just being the primer! We hated it! So by the end, we went back to a more deep red color. 🙂

    Haha... "pregame action". I'm about to start painting/ staining my back deck and porch again. Perhaps a little pregaming will make it more enjoyable in this heat. Seriously, tho... it all looks good, guys! Good decision to abandon the orange. Oooo boy... the red is much nicer and more soothing on the eyes. And sangria is the perfect reward!

    • @toddandrob
      @toddandrob  ปีที่แล้ว

    Have you considered using wire on the deck like you did on the inside railings? It would take away the Halloween look.

    @michaeltucker5752 ปีที่แล้ว

    Choosing a solid, semi-transparent, or transparent makes a lot of difference in a paint or stain color when applied..I noticed you guys were using “ solid” which is basically a solid paint. I would have used a wood stain ( oak) over the orange for a wood color but use a wood grain tool to apply the wood stain to simulate the “ wood grain”. I think you guys need to research paint/stain techniques for your next project. Personally, I like bright orange, as my house is painted bright orange…it really stands out in my neighborhood 😊 I didn’t see you guys wash the deck before painting??? Tsk,tsk,tsk😢

    • @toddandrob
      @toddandrob  ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah, thanks for the tips there. We're learning as we go, for sure. And don't worry, Todd pressure washed the deck! The clips were cut for time but we'll be talking about the electric sprayer at some point because he's loving his new toys. 😉
