Great vids. Thank you. Good to see the young guys carrying on the tradition. I used to do high end homes about 20 years ago. You boys are doing great work. Keep it up just make sure you charge enough for all the quality you are providing. I look forward to more of your videos.

Yes I loved this trick that you did. My father is a general contractor however, painting is his first love I’m going to show this to him. Thank you for sharing.

😂😂😂 freaking roland and gaylin, they come in a pair. Cant get one without the other. I painted with these guys for a while about 7 years ago. I was there foreman, really cool guys to work with.

Nice job this is a project that I’m gonna do before the summers over because I’m getting my siding changed to a slate color, my garage doors are almond color. Thanks for all the tips now I just have to run to Sherwin-Williams and pick up paint and a sprayer.

This is so inspiring. Can’t wait to tackle our own garage door 🙌🏼

When you do something like this all the time it’s called observation. 😂

Great video!!
I wonder how it will look with our Zula ventilation and all black solar panel for air circulation in the garage

You may have scufffed and dusted down, but the Rollie putting his sweaty hand prints all over the garage doors. Hardly professional
How many coats are you using ? It would seem just one? I'd definitely be doing two coats, if only to even out the fat guy's uneven paint overlap.
P.S. Gaylan may have black shoes after this.

I dont understand how he paints under the flanges on the sides??? Ive always done the stepping on the back trick but im not catching the trick for the sides?

It would have been nice to see a wrap up shot of the property as well as an establishing shot. This way we could have seen the overall effect. I bet the fence and newly painted doors look very elegant together now.

Well that's going to be tough to get that stretch mark out when I paint my doors by myself lol

[RetiredUnderachiever]

awesome quick to the point video! QUESTION, my garage repair guy says I need to tape between the panels.Have you ever heard or practiced this? or is this possibility of paint sticking between panels removed when the door is drying in the opened position ?

[CustomHalloweenShop]

One thing I've noticed a lot of these DIY painters is they forget the most vital part of painting garage doors is also painting in between the garage door seams. Do right and not half-ass 🤨

[danknitz]

Would a person be able to get away with rolling the paint on and achieving a textured look?

[jungyumkim]

I like it and what kind of painting color is?

[michaelsantiago]

Does the black paint fade over time in the sun? How often do you have to repaint the doors?

[Dinonuggets]

Is it better to remove the molding and paint them separately?
