@tanjaburoker3287

See that you need a brush to paint that side between the jamb and the switch

@benjiedematera6926

Only thing, start the pad about 4" away from the line and move into the cut. It gets the flow started and dumps the excess. I love these things.

@kirtlamb4413

Not pulling all the recep and switch plates is bush league

@brettwagner-sr4yu

Take the wall plates off before painting!

I’m currently painting and about ready to lose my 💩 so I bought a paint edger and I’m wondering what a waste of $4 LOL why does it swivel?? Who’s the goofy that decide to make it swivel? It goes sideways and does not give a good clean edge smh!

If using quick dry paint inhot climate I wouldnt cut in all the way round, just a 2-3 foot area switch to roller then do your lsps so everything is going wet into wet, then overlap your brush in just like your roller laps and repeat. We have long rooms and quick drying paint and hot climate at the moment, so this way keeps the cut ins blended.

@thadonis.

how much does it cost ?

Doesn’t work for popcorn ceilings though

@shearronperkins4651

Omg life saver thanks!!

@missaturdoor
@

...and the hard part? Changing the stupid pad?

@grahamsmallwood
@

never even knew this existed. thank you ill see if amazon sells them.

@clintyoung8073

Great video... but first time painters, please remove all electrical covers and place the hardware in a zip lock bag. Cover the plugs with tape. Reinstall once the paint fully dries. Will give your project a professional look.

What a piece of junk, doesn't even rotate 90 degrees either way is absolutely worthless around windows or high areas

If I hire you to paint my house. And I see u using one of these things I will kindly ask u to get tf out of my home 😂

@mattgehrke
@

Used this before doesnt get flush with the edge. Plus you still need a brush for areas that can't fit like the side of the light switch, should've taken the cover plate off first btw.

@mm-fg3ix

Great! Thanks so much 😊

@Womanofsmallwinds

Great tutorial! I was a little weary but now I have confidence to try it, thank you!

@franko7357

The single worst thing to paint with, ever.

@John-nq2ox
@

Or just remove your switch cover plate jesus!

@Golden_Raccon

Pro tip. When you first cut in the ceiling and baseboard, also cut in 1 side of every inside corner, then Roll the walls. Next round do the oppositide sides and roll your 2nd coat. These can load much better than a paint brush.

@someone9909

Wtw I needed this BEFORE i went to Home Depot lmbo

@yourstruleeeee
@

It’s idiotic that they make it wobbly. It makes the screw hole for the broomstick pointless because it will wobble

@2010RSHACKS
@

And it was expensive and it has no wheels

@HeatherBDentureDiVa
@

Pay a decorator. Putting paint on a wall is 20% of the job. The work you dont see is what makes apaint job work the money

@shiyanson
@

I’m edging to this rn

@Himeko-astral
@

Of course some edgers are better than others so be sure to get a quality one! Worth the extra $. One important thing you did not mention is to feather the non-cut edge so you don't have a line. Also, when loading the pad, be careful not to get paint on the wheels.

@brettbarager9101
@

It that paint oil based paint 🤔thanx

@boofuls
@

Take the base plate off.

@jeffvanbibber6609
@

Remove light switches and plug covers…if you care about doing a more precise job.

@Jodempole
@

ok but how do you paint that part on the right side of the light switch

@williammmmmmmmm
@

Painting around a switch cover is tweaker stuff.

@lrh411
@

I used a paint edger but it dried with all those little lines in it like you saw in your video. Any suggestions?
