I took an offer to go paint for a day tomorrow, I'm hoping it can be my ticket out of dishwashing for a while until I finish school. What are some pro tips to make it through the day? I'm coming in with an open mind and ready to learn as well as apply my skills I've learned in the dishpit. I'm confident this could be for me.
Looking for input on these cut ins along the baseboards. Do you believe these are up to professional standard? If not, what could be done better? Thank you for your input, much appreciated!
please watch the video for explanation
Hi there! I'm brand new and just got hired into trade painting, I'm posting here hoping someone with experience has advice on how to do the best possible job on jobsites, what are the most important things to know as a beginner? Thank you and I'd really appreciate any advice that can be given.

Most of the time i use random wood I find on the street, but I prefer canvases, but if I want to buy them as many and as big as I want them its really expensive and just too much since i don’t really sell my painting?
Do you have any tricks or information?
thank you in advance
As you can see, the size in the waist is too big. I am wearing men’s wrangler painter pants. I want to find some that fit me better. I’m very new to this so I’m not sure where to look. They do need to be white.
I did have a pair of dickies but had to return those as I didn’t have a large enough size because I did not take into account that men are typically shaped straighter than women are. The size wouldn’t go up past my thighs, hips or butt lol but now it’s way too big in the waist.
EPA RRP certified painter. GCs now want contractor license verification + EPA cert + state license all checked before I can bid.
I’m spending 2hrs per bid just gathering PDFs and screenshots from different sites. Small jobs aren’t worth it anymore. Is there one place to pull all this?
Hi folks,
Bought this house last year and really want to remove the paint on the timber front porch and apply a nice stain. Can anyone tell me what the best approach would be?
This is very much a newbie question. If my trim is currently painted with paint that’s very glossy, will primer make the new paint “stick”, or do I have to sand it? Thank you!
