Wow - you have got quite some progress there! I daresay that looks like a lot of slow work - just to work across across that fascia (move the ladder, get up and paint, get down, move it again, ...). Considering all that, you are doing good!
Who's painted their own house?

I'm actually getting pretty good with the angled cut in brush. When I was working at ground level, I taped around windows, etc. But up on the roof, there's no desire to move the ladder, tape off, etc, so I've just had to get good at cutting in without tape. It's actually not too bad.
That top part is all blue now. I have to get back up there one last time to do the second coat. The house really "pops" now. I like it.Comment

Real good scraping and clean up, good paint, and I use an air spray gun-not HVLP. Maybe I'm just used to it but I've never had luck with airless sprayers. I use a 2 1/2 gallon pressure pot with hoses, but if you're painting a house it's worth cleaning up. I'm sure you have shop air, so it makes it easy. I use a cardboard mask on the edges and of course minimal wind. Just my 2 cents. Some people like it, some people like it.Comment
