[@strai8fan]

Your video would help make fast work to prepare a shipping container for paint! Thanks!

[@lvlikeyV]

big fan of the "blowtorch on the decals" trick!

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

It’s a good one! Glad you found value in our content:)

First time peeping and painting a container. So far I've been doing pretty good. I've got to get me a angle grinder after watching your video.

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Good stuff!

[@mrsolomo14]

Thank you both for sharing your hard earned knowledge regarding easy sticker removal!! Truly appreciated!!

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Hi Donna! Nice to connect with you here as well:) Thanks for the comment

[@albertogranados1914]

Awesome video bro! I wish I would of seen this a couple of days ago 🤦‍♂️

[@jillt7906]

Thanks again for sharing your hard earned knowledge ~ sticker removal tip is great! Keep the videos coming please 🤞😊

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Hi Jill! That is totally a trade secret tip ;) I don't even want to tell you how many containers went by before we had that A-Ha! moment of adding heat to get those suckers off the container. My Gosh. Thanks for following along:)

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@jilanwise8193]

you all should watch this video

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Thanks King ;)

[@Robphoto37]

Thank you

[@ConnectingRoads]

This is great!! We're looking to potentially cut containers to make sheds at River Edge! Good supply list 👌

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

That is awesome! Great use of upcycled material. We were contemplating doing a metal cutting video BUT you also have to have access and knowledge on how to weld to reinforce the cut...It seems now that we should definitely make that video!

[@primodinero3006]

Heat gun for stickers works as well

[@BSDCandMore]

So informative. Thank you! How will I know if I am grinding too much away?

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Andrea Logan awesome question! You’ll start to notice a distinct change in color of the metal.

[@Jesus-eb8yk]

Good video,what kind of primer and paint do recommend thanks.

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Direct to metal, Sherwin Williams

[@tim-hill]

You missed the link to the grinding wheel.

[@clavy5420]

So do you paint over the old paint?

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

We sand it all down, remove stickers, prime, and paint

[@marymarty256]

Can I put a container house on a trailer so it’s a THOW?

[@FarOutTinyHomes]

Sure can.

POR15 and it's done.
