That’s EXACTLY how I was taught to do touch ups & to never do brush strokes like many “pros” do! Great tip from a REAL professional! Thanks

This sir, was the answer to the question I had after years of doing touch-ups, going to HD for custom matches based on samples which rarely worked out. Have had an account with Sherwin-Williams who tries better, but still often takes several iterations to get it somewhere close. With all these frustrations on my belt, I had asked them: How do professionals do it? None of them replied and here you are now telling me what I suspected: Repaint the complete wall - edge to edge and charge for that. Thank you, Chris!

Friendly Tip! Great advice Chris! If I can ad something to this is I always use the same tools to touch up! Example, if you painted the walls with a roller, use the same roller. Feather it out. If you used a paint brush, use a paint brush. I also carry artist brushes for very delicate touch ups! When you are using spackling for small repairs, always keep it to the size of the repair. when filling. Ex, don't use a 4'' putty knife to fill in a nail pop! Always nice to tune into your professional videos. The gooseneck guy! Cheers!

As a painter of over 20 years, touchups can be one of the most tricky parts of our industry. In the past I have used colorant kits and tinted paint by eye at the job. I generally bring a sample into my local store, after they get it as close as they can, I make small adjustments at the job. You can also buy one gallon of paint that is more shiny and a second one (generally the same brand and type) that is less shiny, mix the two until you get it just right. Unless the house is in nearly perfect condition, its usually not worth trying to touch it up. Especially if there are a lot of different colors and sheens throughout the house.

So I myself tried to touch up a few spots. I used spackle. Then painted the couple spots and now from the side they are super shiny like you spoke about. What can I do now to fix that. I have the right color of paint but wrong sheen. Can I dab over it with flat paint the same color that has less sheen. Or sand it with a certain grit then dab with flat paint. What do you suggest without re painting the whole wall. It’s a couple small 3x3 spots that from straight ahead look great: from the side super shiny. Please some advice on how to easily fix this the right way . Thanks

@richiesun9676 3 ай бұрын

I just painted my whole room perfect. Finish electrical happened and they made new holes. I just patched them up and have to sand and paint those patches. Is it worth priming? I just want to hit with two coats of paint and move on. At the end of a long project.

@gregorywilke4340 6 ай бұрын

How would you re-roll the entire wall and not see a color difference near the ceiling and the baseboards if you didn't mask off and rolled it quickly? Wouldn't that not blend with the faded tops & bottoms?

Does the brush dabbing technique also work on smooth (non-textured) walls? We painted a month ago and now have some marks from moving furniture etc.

I can’t tell for certain but some of those scuff marks look like they would come out with a magic eraser and it shouldn’t damage or lighten the existing paint at all when done gently.

There are many reasons why touching up is preferable to re-painting an entire wall. This video is helpful to those of us for whom touching up makes sense.
