" Hi! This is John on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip I will be talking about second coat of paint. Once our first coat of paint has completely dried we need to know need to go back and look for areas that may not have been fully covered on our first coat. The key to this is looking at your first coat where you've painted and looking for areas for where they might white showing from underneath. For our second coat we are going to do the same process we did for our first coat we are going to get plenty paint on our roller and make even strokes when rolling out our paint. Typically two coats should be more then enough to cover your wall."
