What to Paint First? Tips and Tricks for Painting Solo! Final Solo Painting Project Revealed.

What happens here

The painter is shown pouring Glidden Premium paint into a bucket, preparing for spray application. He then outlines the approximate paint quantities used for the project: 14 gallons for the main body of the house, 4 gallons for the white trim, and 2 gallons of a dark accent color for the shakes. He also demonstrates a clever trick for correcting old paint errors: using flat black spray paint to cover white overspray from previous painting jobs on the roof's metalwork, making it appear fresh and new. He also mentions that a touch-up kit, typically containing a quart of each color, is provided to the customer for any future minor repairs.

Goal: This step involves measuring paint quantities for different areas of the house and using black spray paint to touch up any old or accidental white overspray on the roof's metalwork.
