you know match the house we'll when we start spraying the body we're gonna mask off our windows so we're gonna be uh painting front doors we're gonna take the front doors off today we're gonna spray the front doors so that they've got to come off um come off we're going to mass hardware off um light fixtures we typically always remove light fixtures so we're going to want to take those down one screw those things are going to come off um mask windows any type of the footings down here we typically don't ever paint footings but the footings have already been painted before so we'll have to decide whether we want to paint them gray to look like footings or paint them to match the house they would end up being white i think they'll stand out really bad if we do them white because the body's going to be white so i think we'll do them gray and um and so that's the the concrete footings right here i like them to look like concrete footings like we didn't make a mistake and painted them gray uh the rock right here the rock was painted multiple times typically we don't paint rock but we stain rock this has been painted and so we went over the top of that with a paint and looks a lot better now so we started that process right now over here gutters the gutters have been painted if they've been painted before we don't have to prime them the product we use is um is a perfect product that doesn't need a primer if they're brand new gutters or their gutters factory finish they do need to be primed first so we have to spray them we do need to take a mailboxes off so i think there is a mailbox that one has already been removed we need to take this mailbox off um we've already moved doorbells removed doorbell we're gonna remove the lights here uh concrete steps footings walkways we're typically to want to drop a drop cloth down to protect that so we don't get any overspray you know on that we've got a fence where it meets the house um it's very critical that you know we we mask this off mask it off properly so we don't get any overspray you know on the fence you know if you're uncomfortable spraying you'll put um i usually just use one nine inch row of paper on there so um pull weeds and um grass dirt back so this was actually painted we're taking it all the way down to the ground so we can shield to the ground right here um that's the front of the house everything that we need to do to get ready um if you got any water faucets i think there's a water faucet you've already…
