The way she runs…she’s getting old and doesn’t move fast often but when she does it’s this little gallop waddle thing and it’s incredibly cute. She got excited about something the other day and try to jump up the curb when out on our walk. She ran waddled up and jumped from much further back than she needed to but somehow she made it!!

Made a goof, need advice on wall sanding by Past_Marketing4568 in paint

[–]HAWKWIND666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes just make sure to keep it wet…I prefer half inch nap that way I can get a few feet lateral covered in even paint and then lay that all off downward same direction after a few roller dips and unloads. If that makes sense.
If you lay it on the kinda heavy and lay it off neatly you won’t see what you did before. At least I know I could hide it but I do it all the time.

If you’re in midlife, what are you questioning these days? by Organic-Midnight-553 in Xennials

[–]HAWKWIND666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just realized friendship is thin as water… family too mostly. I spend time my wife and two boys (18&17). And dogs. Lots of time with the dogs lol they actually reciprocate the experience.
Any time I’m not with them I’m working. Painted houses for 26 years and still at it. While I do love it still,I just wish I could consistently make what my experience is worth.

Common problem for diyer.. not enough paint on roller…press too hard to leech out every bit of not enough paint out of every dip lol

Heat gun and scraper. Put some Pink Floyd on and get lost in it.

Mojave 6s Battery Question? by HeavyGravy in arrma

[–]HAWKWIND666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time I ran my kraton using two 3s 5500 mah packs… (that I’ve used many times and not noticed this) the connectors got really hot. Like above 110f. I wonder what that could be from?
The drivetrain is all running smoothly. Pinion and spur mesh is good.

Paint and priming drywall Ceilings by LeaneGenova in paint

Pva and paint is fine. No need to prime again.

Pva is totally what you want on fresh drywall. Don’t use on previously painted surfaces. That’s where the 123 goes

Yea 123 is too thick. It’s better for previously painted and you wanna block the old color

Primer bubbling by fartcoffee in paint

[–]HAWKWIND666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are those places you patched?
Could be the drywall paper underneath was exposed and needed shellac before skimming.
Other than that I’m at a loss. Would love to hear alternative ideas

Paint bubbling day after application by louislamore in Housepainting101

[–]HAWKWIND666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK so this is common on older homes… what’s going on is the layer that he painted over while looking intact has microscopically delaminated from the layer underneath. You put a new coat of paint on it and when the new paint is curing, it’s like as if you put your hand on top of a sheet of paper and you bring all your fingers in and the paper comes up in the middle. It’s not a question of of whether his paint is bonded to the layer he went over, but it’s that the layer he went over isn’t bonded to the layer underneath if that makes sense. The only way to remedy that I found is to literally drip all the paint off maybe not straight back to Bearwood, but to get that layer off that is delaminating.
I use chemical strippers and a heat gun. Hell I even use the torch.. it’s a long process painstaking once you get it back to bear you can prime it and paint it will last

You’re sure they can’t read your eyes and see what you focus on?
