Watching a vid on cutting in is much more enjoyable than actually cutting in.
No nonsense. No excessive unnecessary chat! Perfect ty!
You and I cut in the exact same way. It leaves such a beautiful line and clients always love it so much. Thank you for mentioning “feathering” in the chunky line. People don’t realize how that line sticks out. Great painting buddy! I love being a painter.
I’ve never been so satisfied in my entire life
Do not tell your husband that
@@fairamir1who says she's married and how long is her whole life!
:) (And if she's maried I'll try this on my own wife too...)
aw!I love seeing professional technique and application!Alan!pack your bags!You're fired!
Cutting in is easy on a smooth wall like that, I'd like to see you cut in on really rough textured wall like I've got.
I felt this comment
Every video is on smooth walls.I noticed that too
It’s the same but you have to wiggle/vibrate the brush as you go
Use frog tape
Just wanted to thank you for all the videos you did. I see you stopped some time ago but I really appreciate it and they were very helpful. I hope you are doing well.
Your clear instructions and reassuring tone made me believe I'd be great at this on the first try. 😂
Turns out that I need more practice, and did a lot of wiping paint off of other surfaces with a damp cloth.
Picture a complete newbie to DIY, who's cack handed, a bit impatient, using watered down paint for a mist coat, which dribbly unless very thinly applied. Not sure why I was so confident I'd smash it, honestly!
At least it was just white paint and easy to keep wiping off. No doubt practice will improve my technique. At least I got myself a good cutting in brush, so with thicker paint, and less absorbent walls, I might stand a chance.
Feature walls are really tricky so is cutting in even for a pro so good job man ..
Works well if your corner are straight!
Watching cut in videos for S&G, found the Pro. This is how it's done .
damn thats on point. i spend so much time taping it all up first
Liked! straight to the point! Thank you sir!
Excellent video.
I really like the way you cut in. You sure have a steady hand sir. Very good video. Why do some professionals painting contractors tape off on there inside corners. Maybe, they want to make sure they get a perfect straight line.
Brush is so important for nice cuts 😎
Omg that color at 0:40 looks so Delicious!
Absolutely amazing brushwork 😀
If you slightly clean the side of the brush that goes against the ceiling you can cut it in one stroke, is more faster and will leave no excessive paint. Of course you need to practice in order to get good at it.
First of a dozen videos that does a great job of explaining techniques vs just showing off a steady hand...
Great job!
My only advice (to myself mostly), use a good brush! Not some shitty dollar store brand...
I usually tape and caulk accent walls with clear caulking. But damn your cut in skills are on point 👌🏽
Only amateurs tape and caulk
@@gort3969 only homeowners or cheap contractors/builders say that
Thankyou great tip...I was cutting in today and I was about to rip my hair out...I thought I had a steady hand .😂 I was wrong, but tomorrow I’m going to try it your way see how I go 😊
Thankyou for great video 😊
This assumes a nice, crisp, straight caulk line... which is a rarity. I'm painting my son's condo, which was apparently caulked by Ray Charles or Stevie Wonder...
Great tips and advice.
Thank you a lot.

This is only the second painter I've found with this technique.
Great method. Thanks for sharing.
So helpful, thank you!
Thanks so much. Great lesson 👍
I prefer using a 4inch roller when I’m cutting lay paint down bring it lower when I’m doing top cuts makes it easy for roller so they won’t have to get close to ceiling or baseboards
Great vid, mate. Aussies are so good at DIY
I'm thrilled
this is what iv been looking for thanks
Superb!
This is great..thank you..!!
Sorry I pressed thunbs down by mistake..my bad…
Cutting in on a straight edge would make it easier.. cut into a ceiling with no coving and then we will talk 😂👊🏽
Love me a square stop feel like he could of water the down a little to minimize those brush marks...
@vaughankapua3758 Ive never done that myself. Ill give it a try when I paint next lol
Nice technique!
Wow great tip thanks 👍👍👍👍
It as mysterious as I thought.
So helpful thank you
Good cut
Found this technique messy . Better with a good masking tape
No way!!... I ALWAYS use frog tape on the vertical corner edge, to guard against imperfections in the wall
Zibra 2 inch chiseled wedge: Best edging brush I haev ever used: Amazon or Home Depot
Thanks
I water my paint down to get the perfect line , no smudging, and get the perfect line
Thank you so much this is totally amazing! Your a legend.
If you're not 100% confident in cutting - Can you still tape off your edges?
Yes, tape is preference
I ALWAYS tape off the vertical edges... Use frog tape
its a lot easier when you have a ledge on the wall to paint against as you pull the brush across.
So what brush!
Love the paint brush being used. What brand/type is it please?
Uni-pro from Bunnings.
I see. So the only thing missing from my skills is coordination.
I always have brush lines less than an inch away from the cut in. I'm using Wooster Pro soft bristle brush. I feel like I'm getting plenty of paint on the brush. What am I doing wrong?
Same here. Just using standard trade paint, but once I’ve gone over the main bit with a roller, a lot of the cut-in parts always stand out.
Is it just a matter of putting loads of coats on? 🤷🏾♂️
👌
You cut in straighter by hand than i do using masking tape 🤣, i’ve just painted my bedroom & cutting in looks darker than the rolled walls 🙈 any ideas or tips ?
Roll the walls again to get the same shade as your cutting in
I feel your pain 🎨
Try that on an uneven wall xD
What brush is being used?
the part i can never get right is the corner, what am i doing wrong?
Use frog tape
Masking tape is the only way for anyone who needs to look this up. No one here is good enough to cut in that precise, trust me. Save yourself and just mask it off.
I just started cutting in myself and it's that easy not that hard masking tape is pointless to me they have cut in brushes
You don’t know what you are talking about. All it takes is a good cut in brush and a little practice and it’s done. Tape is expensive and a big waste of time,
@@michaelwpaulin4876 If you're a DIYer, there is no such thing as "practice". Usually it's a one off and you don't do it again for another few years. Tape is expensive? TIME is expensive in having to fix the mistakes from cutting in.
@@larrybudspecially when you add colour against a white.
It will take forever to correct it.
Absolutely agree, masking is the easiest for someone with no time, i have a toddler and a baby, time feels like gold to me
I Always frogtape the feature wall for Lazer sharp cutting.NO EXEMPTION.
I’ll just stick with using tape, my hand is not that steady
I hate painting
😂😂😂 me too especially cutting in
I'm using the wrong brush😮
The best way to do cutting..its paying a professional to do it .. 😂
Hello, do you have videos to teach how to paint a timber fence?
fences are usually sprayed, but you can brush and roll them but it just takes much more time because you have to cover all the little tight areas and give it a second coat.
Cutting in a whole wall at once 😂😂😂😂 what a gronk
Not as easy as you think
You hold your brush like an amateur.
Not great
