How to use a paint edger. Paint 4x faster with results.

In this video I show how I used a paint edger to speed up the process of repainting my son's bedroom. This quick tutorial also compares how long it takes to paint around trim using a brush vs. using the edger. I found that I can cut in all of the trim and edges about 4 times faster than using a brush. This saved me a lot of time, especially since I needed 2 coats of paint to cover this dark room with a light grey. Feel free to use the links below to find the products I used in this video.

I used one today for the first time. Hand is sore after doing most of a 2BR apartment. One tip with it is to dust any tops of surfaces where you'll be using it, ie: top of door frames, as the wheels can collect dust and later leave track marks in other areas where you use it. That handy pail is a great idea.

At 0.47 you can see the edge doesn't cover all the way to the door trim, you've got to do that portion by hand I guess?

Here come all the "professional" painters 😆 Always attract the dodgy tradesemen, these videos.

If you paint your door black, not the trim, it will transform the space even more and will complement the surroundings

Didn't go as fast as he did, but this product does work well.

It’s crap I can do it faster with a brush and looks better.

😂😂😂 4 minutes to cut in a door with a brush. That’s gotta be a joke
