LTT so we're going to have an accent wall that's going to be this kind of
0:37
navy warm blue and then we're going to have a lot of grays so this is going to
0:41
be light gray darker gray this is gonna be dark green here dark gray light gray
0:46
it should look really good hopefully so you just need to go to kind of
0:50
approximately there okay okay and then the brush is for cutting in corners
0:55
where we're changing color so you'll have to brush that corner right there otherwise
0:59
if you want to freehand it then go for it i'm sure i can free on it like i just don't i just can't cross that line yeah
1:04
are you dead huh it came right on my face
1:08
i don't really know how to paint you just painted your house uh i'm in
1:12
the process but like why are we painting the wall the same color as the wall
1:18
i literally see no difference you're a wall oh i see another do you know what you need you need um
1:23
a tray yeah
1:28
wait sorry what is this that's a roller pole yes got it okay got it i thought it
1:32
was like a wizard staff at first what about like
1:36
like do i got paint up there like do i gotta paint that bean i don't gotta pay
1:40
that meat right i should just take initiative i should just paint it anyways do you think she's gonna give me
1:44
crap if i do if i make a mistake you're going to
1:48
how do you know that because i know that i'm james
1:52
stay with my library i'm taking this ladder dude no man lighters need to
1:55
match their people i'm medium that's a medium ladder
1:59
that's your ladder tip number one to painting take your
2:03
glasses off it doesn't matter if you can't see but you're not gonna get paint
2:06
on your glasses paint is water-based it washes off your glasses wait wait i'm
2:11
water-based that doesn't look even
2:16
what doesn't yeah i thought you were just going to brush under there i know
2:19
it was and then i don't know i just got it away um
2:23
can i show you how to paint yeah that'd be cool okay that'd be really cool okay
2:26
step number one is reduce your reload time okay you put your actually that's a
2:31
stupid spot for it because you're right-handed right okay so that way you go like this you go back to the wall
2:36
okay you had it here so you're going like this and then what
2:40
oh my god go back over here
2:44
you go down this way always this way because you go backwards you're gonna
2:48
get paint all over your pants and your shoes oh just fine because i don't give
2:52
a your pants and shoes but so you always go up and down
2:56
up and down the wall and you see how i'm actually applying very little pressure
3:00
case should stop doing that i'm actually trying to teach you something this has
3:04
got to be the best way it's the most muscles used i'm doing painting now
3:08
this is how i paint see it's better when it dries right so everything Linus said
3:13
was pretty much wrong
3:17
this is the preferred way i don't carolina says use your legs that's common sense right
3:21
that's what i was doing common sense yeah i was like this i was like
3:25
straight up talk to the hand because the face oh dang
3:29
you can't hear anything i'm saying this is actually pretty dope this is a
3:32
russian in his natural habitat are you wearing slippers on a ladder should i
3:36
just not wear shoes why are you wearing slippers that's what you just say
3:41
nothing that's a great yeah you said a swear word i heard that before i turned
3:44
the camera on yeah i mean usually make fun of each other on this channel but uh
3:48
you're doing a good job dude if the set is wide enough although really i need to look through a camera
3:52
let me just see i want to see it's not auto
3:57
good job good thing i'm very good at it yeah a lot easier than painting no
4:01
offense why don't we just use our printer and print out pictures of
4:05
flooring and then just line the floor with that well we gotta fish the floors we're
4:09
gonna finish painting and then i gotta finish the accent walls
4:14
so we're doing shiplap over there
4:17
and then we're doing a brick wall over here
4:20
and then i still have to do vinyl sliding on the exterior first before
4:24
final siding yeah cause it's gotta look like the outside of a house Colton okay
4:28
well then if we're gonna go that far do we get a little garden a little you know
4:31
little pond a little i haven't promised the
4:34
brandon to max that yet but that's my plan
4:38
that's crazy i want goldfish i'll name them and feed them i'm going to start a
4:42
cooking channel once the kitchen's done dude you can't do that what give us enough time i'm actually
4:46
painting the bedroom i'm going to be staying for the next one because i'm a
4:50
little bit homeless sorry what we've got here guys is a bush
5:03
so one of the most gratifying things about painting is when you put
5:07
all of the wall outlet covers back on
5:13
it's nice that's nice
5:17
you guys put a floor in this is really nice what's that what do you think is
5:21

5:25
