Glad to help! Thanks for watching!

@@rayhayden lpp

It is very nice to see so many great videos that I might have never otherwise seen!

Yeah, the cats did a great job creating that job for me on the wall! LOL!

They like to keep you busy LOL!

They are so "creative!" LOL!

Thanks for adding me. I definitely subbed to your KZfaq channel just now. Thanks again

That is a good point. I have to think of the time of year, but there was a body of water (golf course lake) behind that property, and I imagine the sunlight on the water could have done something like that.

Thanks for watching - I am very happy that you found this helpful!

:-)

Thanks for watching, I greatly appreciate it!

Thanks for watching!

Kitties (I have a few... )!

Yet, a master of none! LOL

LOL - true. I have a dust catcher on one sander, but I agree - even with that, it is a bit dusty!

I had a neighbor (a snowbird) here, who had pipes freeze up north and break a year or so ago... nasty business. We don't leave our property, but if we do for any length of time, we cut off the water outside - laundry (washer) hoses can go bad, so we added those to our repair and replace schedule! I had to do a bit of drywall repair for friends who had issues with water heaters, or a bad pipe connection.

Yeah, problem with our house is there isn’t a separate line. I guess they do weird things like that here. Now we have someone there frequently to check. I was told that insurance policies can deny claims like ours if no one is checking.

Thanks for watching! I generally use a heavier grit (lower number) to knock anything off, then I usually use 80 grit. I don't try to make things too smooth, because the painted wall is no longer as smooth as when the drywall went up and was primed and painted - and I hope to get away with touching up. For that wall, If I am recalling correctly, after these patches, I was able to initially touch up, but then I went on to patch up some other sections when we sold the unit in 2018, and I was able to get away with painting just the wall there, and where the door is - which had a slightly angled, short wall for the door. And that is another thing about using flat paint, it is easier to touch up when we can, but if we have to do the wall, we can normally get away with doing just the one wall.

I would normally use some rough sandpaper to loosen / remove any paper damage on the wall, then smooth it out with 80 grit, if I had additional small paper issues, I might use 120 grit to smooth that out. Thanks for asking!

Thanks for watching! I greatly appreciate it!

Edit: I got my answer about monetization. Still running your playlist here at work! :)

I got back in late today - working outside all day long! I am glad you got your answer... I don't have an understanding of "covers," and recreations with editing... I never had a class on Intellectual Property - but it is one of my big legal interests... along with Contracts, and Administrative Law

I might just end up sending a message to KZfaq about it. They've never responded before, but it really it remains a mystery since it's on many of my videos now, not just one. :( IP interests me as well.

Cement. I'd use a different product, which is pretty much a cement patch material like this. The texture of the wall is going to be part of the things you have to consider. Matching that can be difficult, but if it is a small scratch, it might be simple. Me? I'd patch it, try to make it look like the rest of the wall - and I'd wait to make sure it is staying in place, then I'd prime it and paint it to match the rest of the wall. What I never want to have to do, is to repaint the entire wall. The wall in this video did end up being repainted due to a slight color difference (due to the age of the original paint job and the repair), but I only had to repaint that one wall. Best wishes and thanks for watching.

That is some sticky tape! The paper came off with the paint? Generally, yes... light patching with spackle, light sanding, go over it again with spackle, light sanding, touch up paint... if you are in a location where they have people on staff, like repair folks and the like, you might be able to score some touch up paint from them. Flat paint touches up easier, but the color (even of white paint) can be off a bit between brands. The more "different" the shade of pain is, the more noticeable it will be.

@@rayhayden Yes when I peeled off the tape the dry wall came off but it’s a thin layer so the slightest dent or scratch to the walls it comes off or it either leaves like blackish or silverish mark but if you wipe it with a cloth comes off. Could be that the tape was there for a couple days as well. But they have paint that’s not glossy right? Because the white on this wall has no gloss or shine what’s so ever. Okay then I will ask at my local Lowe’s. Thank you so much for replying I didn’t notice how old this video was I didn’t think you’d reply.

What we had noted, is that any shine (sheen) at all, tends to require painting of that entire wall again. When we painted with Matte (Flat) paint, we do not need to repaint the entire wall if the shade of the paint matches very well. I say it that way, because formulas of paint, and the "lot" of the paint (the "run" of a formula, or "batch") can vary a little bit... a little bit is not bad, and we can just touch up, but every now and then, we will paint the entire wall. Of note, since we moved out of South Florida, and up to Central Florida, we took some paint from the wall, and had that "matched" at the local big box home improvement store - Lowes, Home Depot, and almost any quality paint store will have the capability to match paint rather well... we have been simply touching up. Because we have a lot of cats, and they will do damage to the walls, we have to do more patching and touching up... if we felt the need to do so, we would paint the entire wall... but so far? We have not had the need to do so.

This was a while back. Basically, I would use 80 grit to bang off bits of paper and such, maybe a little rougher - but just to knock loose stuff off. After that, I would normally use either 100 or 120 to smooth things up a bit. The roller we use is normally smooth, which still leaves a bit of a texture - bot much, but some... so I don't want to make the wall around a repair too smooth, or I end up having to prime, coat, and recoat - or one more time to make the slight texture match up. When we sold the office (where this was) and the house (next to each other, and shared a wall), I only needed to repaint that one wall in that room. I went corner to corner on that one wall, just to make it all perfect. Thanks for watching!

I never required anything in addition to how I was able to repair these. In our home now, I do have to tweak some repair work I did on our front porch ceiling. It is going to require using tape and a screw of some sort along with the patching. Thanks for asking, and thanks for watching!

I use 80 Grit for rough areas, peeled paper and such, and I use 120 Grit (smoother) for the easier areas, and once I get things cleaned up... I do not want it to be perfectly smooth, because there is going to be a slight texture from the roller. Thanks for watching!

Flat paint on the wall? Have any extra, or know which brand and "number" it was? Try to do a light patch with spackle paste, and smooth that out (if needed), and touch up with paint... the very worst case is that you end up painting the one entire wall.

That is an excellent point! SOMETIMES, a textured wall is going to need a bit of texture... it can be from a texture, such as "knockdown" or the like... or it could be a texture due to the painting technique. I have been quite fortunate thus far, and the only times I ever needed to fix things up, had been due to painting technique, which I was able to duplicate. Thanks for noting that.

I had a family member who would make WWII Aircraft out of cardboard boxes... insane detail! They would paint them with left over paint from jobs (they painted for a living)... hundreds of little, and very large, cardboard model aircraft... it was wild! I imagine tanks are no less of a simple task!

I kind of hope the way I described in this video was pretty easy to follow. If you have any specific questions, I have done things up to removing part of a wall and replacing that bit of wall board, and other repairs... ask me, and I will try to answer it for you, or get you looking in the right direction for a good answer for your issue.

The cat won me over right away - but it was cool to see the blower working from the front side... I have to come back to see the night version of that thing throwing snow!

Need to make another video at night
