video, we're going to go over the exterior painting and the prepping process we go through prepping peeling wood and some blistering siding that are common issues here in Boise. In this process, we're going to be using a painters 5 in1 tool. We've got a painters wire brush or a barbecue brush you can get at Sher Williams at Home Depot. We actually use in our prepping process Shermax um lifetime warranty caulking from Sher Williams. The primer we use is XIM peel bond um primer. It's a latex based primer. And we've got a 2 and 12 gallon bucket uh brush here, a 3-in brush that we use for applying the primer. We've got a Wagner paint heater. This paint heater has a grinder on it that actually is designed for peeling paint that actually feathers the edges and knocks off any loose paint. And um we've got a cocking gun right here, a dripless cocking gun with teeth on it. We like them with the teeth and we like them dripless. And we've got a ladder just in case we need a ladder to reach up high places. Over here on this door
