This was the most helpful video I’ve found on how to paint over these kinds of walls. I’ve been looking for hours for this! Thank you!
As someone else said a year ago, this is by far the best video and most straight forward and simple easy to understand. Thank you for making this video. I've watched several trying to find one that was exactly like this one.
Thanks sooo much
Came across this as I’m painting my Bathroom /shower Panels .
Got black sparkle ages ago but can’t afford to take off and get a new colour panels .
So painting it a lovely soft Grey specially for panels UPVC etc .
I found this VERY useful , Thank you.
Went through multiple waste of time videos before this. Just what I was looking for short sweet and perfectly informative. Thank you
Just helped a friend paint her paneling...wish we would have come here first. The sanding is a great piece f info and primer would have worked wonders. It took us 3 das because we had to keep adding layers.
Thanks!!
Awesome video!! As with all the other commenters, it took me watching several other BS videos before I saw yours finally! Glad I came across it!
Watched several videos that wasted my time. Really appreciate the straight forward instructions. Thanks!!
Awesome video! 😎 Clear instructions, and you took the time to actually show all the steps and explain. Best video I’ve seen yet!
Nice 👍 video, I have a small mobile home with wood paneling throughout on the bottom third section of the walls. It is scratched up in areas and just looks completely old/dated. Painting it will be a major improvement in terms of appearance. I like how your video was short, to the point, and easy to follow.
Good vid and info!
I've painted several mobile homes in my park, and some people are so cheap they don't want to pay for the priming step. Once a lady said, "Oh my friend said you don't need primer, the paint has primer in it..." Famous last words. So I went with her wishes, and before I finished the third room, three days later, you could see places they hit with furniture. Oh well, I did what they wanted... but never again. From then on, I told them what I would do and if they don't want it, I won't do the job.
I have been wanting to do this for some time. I just truly dislike mobile home paneling. I can show this to my husband so he understands, and we can do it now at a project. Thank You So Much!!! I'll subscribe to find your other gems.
Thank you!!
Why can't all the instructions video's be like this one. Straight to the point.
Thank you, Violet. I was just going to get thin sheetrock but I'll try your suggestion first. I'd like the look of sheetrock but not the work or $$$$.
Looks great! Definitely gonna do this in the house we just bought.
Thank you!! Watching this in 2020 so helpful
awesome. out of all the videos this one has the exact paneling Im looking to paint over. that shiny wood shit.
Thx..:-)
This video was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your hard work and for sharing your knowledge.
This is most simple one I watched. Thank you sir.
Watched in 2021. Thank you. Simple and easy. Something I can definitely do on my own.
thank you!! I'm going to try to fix what someone else painted cheap. Taking my time. Hope it works.
Been painting the inside of our mobile home, satin paint worked well, and yea those grooves are a pain in the ass
Best straightforward video! Thank you!
Wow, that really brightens the area.
Ron Yeah makes a huge difference.

I really enjoyed your video. Short sweet and to the point. Awesome tutorial!!

Very helpful, Have looked at a lot of these type videos but this has helped the most!
Robin Miller Thx Robin!!!
I can't wait to see it all done!
LiveLikeBrittney Us too...:-)
Thank you so much we have the exact same wood panels only ours are lighter color and we wanted to paint the walls we were a little scared so this is a perfect video thank you so much we will be starting this weekend
Great info. I would've missed the sanding, thanks!
ACA Funding yw, ty for watching
very nice video, thank you for sharing your project with us, Gbu 🙏
Few years ago I paint an small wall, and I remember how the paint didn’t want to stick in the wood, now I know why. 😲
Good job, the white looks much better than the wood panelling.
Best video I have seen by far. Thank you :)
Wow that looks great!
Best so far!
great tips ..watching 2021. Hope I get to paint my successfully! Thanks so much!
This was helpful beyond belief. Thank you SO much.
+Meredith Hammett your welcome!!! thx for the nice comment
This was extremely helpful!
I'm going to be doing this real soon and thank God you didn't say to fill in the grooves, because I don't have time for that! Lol
Thank you!! Straight to the point video.
2021 & i NEEDED this video! Thanks!!!
I found Bullseye 1 2 3 primer at Ace Hardware that specifies that it can be used directly on glossy paneling, as well as glossy paints and even tile(!!) with no prior sanding required. It's true. I can't scratch this stuff off my paneling at all. It's so good, wiping any drips or smudges off is mandatory as soon as you notice the spills.
cynthianhoj Is that an oil based product??? I noticed this guy is using a water based product, but of course he's sanding.
+cynthianhoj How's it holding up now? I want to redo the paneling in my trailer, but I have bad joints. A lot of sanding is a no no for me, so I'm looking for ways around it.
I agree. I find the Bullseye 123 primer the best for paneling and CIL primer for drywall.
me to,bulls eye 123 is the best alternative and easy to apply with small roller. no need to use brush for the lines save time and money..🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I used 2 coats of Valspar Interior/Exterior Bonding Primer with two coats of Valspar Signature Primer/Paint. Primer instructions said I didn't need to sand wood paneling but I did anyway.
easy to follow. thanks for this video
I also have a mobile home, with the same paneled walls....ugh! I have painted them too, but I didn’t sand first. I used a paint with primer added, and it went on easily and had no problems adhering to the paneling. The biggest problem, to me, were the many grooves that paneling has; but it really was worth the effort! The walls look great! Yours look good, too ~ you did a wonderful job on your remodel!
Love your video going to try it
I have this same horrible paneling in my entire house. I used Kilz as well but unfortunately did not see this before hand. Just FYI to anyone watching - listen to him. lol I only sanded on areas that we were filling in nail holes and it wasn't a very strong sandpaper and then I used the cheapest color paint I could find. Scratching with your nails does nothing but if furniture bumps the wall we get black smudges. At this point I don't care anymore because painting is the bane of my existence but I certainly wish I had seen this earlier. lol!
Oh and I literally had to do 3 coats of Kilz and 3 coats of color.
eff1
Thank you abd what do you think about sparkling the grooves?
Great information!
thank you for this!!! easy diy
Re-painted 2 trailers, both came out designer beautiful.
My technique was to wash really well first, using Colox Bleach cleaner. Trailers are DIRTY! And that takes off a bit of finish.
Did not sand. I agree with The Wannabee Homesteader, it would be nicer, but it was more than I could handle.
Painted on primer, and left it 48 hours (live in a wet area), and primer takes longer to dry than paint. It looked nothing like his one coat, lots of spaces, etc.
So I put on a 2nd coat of primer, let dry another 48 hours. By then I had a nice base.
So then I painted in a nice wall color, flat, no shine, neutral light beige/grey, which is the "in" color of the moment. Some call it Greige. Chose your color, but go for something modern...a "designer" color ideally, ha, ha.
Found a painter who used his Sherwin Williams account to buy me 5 gallons for the price of 1 gallon retail, and paid him the difference to help paint.
It looks fantastic.
Chips aren't a problem, but trailers are small space living, and I think they take more maintenance to keep up.
Thank you for this quick video!!!!
Thank you :-)!!!
Great Video- thanks!
I have this paneling all over my trailer. I cleaned the walls, waited to make sure they were dry, then I used Bullseye 123 primer from home depot, and then I used a glossy paint. No sanding required!!
Omg thank u! I HATE sanding
@@concernedbuyer8253 Before you jump the gun from one person's comment.. you may want to confirm their results... if they didnt sand then even the best primer wont stick onto a smooth surface too well.. eventually it will flake off especially if you hang stuff on the wall or if you bump up against it with something.. itll chip much easier.. I just painted faux wood shelving and the lightest rubbing up against it with another hard surface chipped the paint off without even trying. Sanding is crucial. It may look good and last a long time but pray you never bump up against it with something or itll flake right off and once it flakes off that spot will just get bigger.
I just bought a mobile home and the wall kind of wood panel like your ? I am thinking want to paint the whole house , thank god i found your video clip before i want to start my project. Because mobile home wall is different from regular house drywall .
VERY HELPFUL...THANKS!
one of our paneled walls was so bad we ended up using drywall mud and mixing it with sand... basicly we made our own stucco! then we painted it with kilz and topped with paint. I really like the way it came out, buuutt, there was the problem with the light switches and outlets. we ended up siliconing them to the wall..lol
shouldve sanded the area around the light switches to smooth it out and use longer screws for the switch boxes.
What type of brush do you use to paint the seams? I've tried all sorts and it's never as easy as in the video.
Thanks for your help 👍
nice finished..
Hi. Have any of you guys tried using joint compound to cover over the paneling to get a smooth effect? In theory it adds considerable time to the project but it gets rid of the paneling look without boosting the cost greatly. My wife and I are getting ready to tackle that very project in our den and we decided to keep the paneling so as to have a better light weight anchor for pictures and paintings rather than drywall by itself. Any thoughts or opinions?
This is the best video I have seen with excellent understandable “how to” merhod, thank you!
awesome and simple...thank you so much!
+Juan Valente Perales yw!!!
Thank you so much for the helpful tips!!
youre welcome!!
Thanks for the great info.
Thank you for this! We have crappy faux wood trim all over our house and I've always cringed at it. I've been wanting to paint it. It has that plastic like sheen to it just like the wall you painted and I've been worried about paint chipping or flaking off. I think I'll be doing this soon.
Cool...let us know how it turns out...:-) It makes a big difference.
So helpful I will subscribe to follow your project. Thanks.
Would you recommend the same primer for the ceiling also?
very helpful. Thanks for the step by step.
Thank you!!!
What if my walls already have paint ? Do I have to sand it as well ? Or can I just paint over them
Subscribed. Question. If you were going to fill in the gaps what would you do? In order to make it look like Sheetrock. Also what would you do with the band that juts our a little from the wall that molding piece between panels?
Can you texture after you prime the walls?
Well done.
I also have questions about painting the ceiling in a mobile home...any experience in that area?
Also, last one, have you tried mounting a large TV on a mobile home wall (paneling)?
OMG this was so helpful...I have the same paneling in my living room and hate it!! I would like it white or a very light gray however, I was worried abt the paint not sticking. Would u recommend a sml hand sander? Also can you reply below as the exact primer n paint to use ....thanks ❤
great job.
Great info. Half of the walls in my (mobile) home is covered in this paneling
Jesse Grant Thank you.
Is that kilz paint the best for covering up cigarette smoke? Or would you suggest another kind of kilz. Bought a old Mobil home and old lady smoked in it.
Excellent! Thanks!🤚👏😁💖
Previous owner painted the wall without prep, do I need to remove that paint to get the new paint to stick?
I made the thumbs up on the video make the 1K mark!! 😊
+iHeartAshleySmith hahhaaha...thank you for the thimbs up
Do you fill the vertical black,lines if so how, can you see those lines.....what about taking it down
how and what type of paint do you use for the out side of a mobile home?
I just bought a mobile home its clean but wife wants to paint the inside white good information.
Fill the lines before you paint. Much cleaner dry wall effect will result.
Especially if you do a skim coat with joint compound first.
Can I use a high quality paint and primer in one?
Have you ever painted over faux brick paneling? I want to make it look like it's kinda covered in like a stucco type of look where some of the red brick is showing through big cracks. So it looks like it was plastered over long ago and now the plaster is chipping and cracking in some areas.
Would Sherwin Williams Resilience, Exterior Acrylic (Satin) work for paneling? My work is trying to paint some paneling and I'm trying to help them figure out how to do it.
Thanks..this really helps!
YW!!
So wat all the stuff you use or wats all the materials u gone basically need to get your wall like this.??
Thanks for the good info!
youre welcome
Yes we agree you do need to sand....loved your video...we followed you exactly and it’s coming out great....thanks for the video⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome, thanks so much
@@TheWannabeHomesteader we finished in white and it looks great
Depending on the primer you really don't have to sand with modern primers, but make sure the paneling is clean.
@@jamesm568 I bought a primer & paint comes together,will need to sand using this kind of paint?
@@DavidHernandez-ue4fz Depends on the surface.
Very cool to find the exact problem I need to solve. Thanks for sharing this!
youre welcome...hope it helps!!!

Do you need to clean the walls first?
