This is the first time in life that I am painting my own home. Previously I hired a painter more than a decade ago to paint this home. And in Malaysia I paid a few thousand ringgit each time to paint my house. Today I painted half a wall in three hours. Not easy indeed.
Internal walls buy emulsion paint (most common is Nippon white). Use or buy the medium size roller there's small medium and big. The small one is for touch up small area it soaks very little paint and is troublesome and slow. The medium size is just nice and the paint texture will not be too thin is fast and easy for wall.
Buy a paint tray pour some onto the tray don't dip the roller into the original paint pail directly it'll drip and uneven and waste of time. Lay a waste cloth or plastic sheet on the floor of the wall where u're painting to catch any droplets. Also standy a wet cloth, emulsions is easy to clean when it's still wet. Use a 2 inch brush to grace the corner and edges first then center use roller.
It's fun and fast and very satisfying if done right. Like everything else.

*Oh ya since i'm still *around lol.... i have a suggestion for your trouble neighbours problems. Firstly the universe will always reflect back to you what you think of most or things that triggered you most that is to your case your 'knocking neighbours' It's the law of attraction.
It's easy to settle or solve these types of problems.
1. Firstly after my explanation above, you now understand why so 'suay' you like always kenna these type of people. It's the law of attraction. These *annoying things will keep looking for you as long as you're easily triggered or is annoyed by them. So now you understand the root or source of the 'play'.
Life is like a game it reflects what you give out if not twice. lol...... You feels annoyed by little things ? Those little things will keep haunting you............
lesson 1. Understnading is the first step to eliminate the problem.
2. There's a saying : When it is understood forgiveness is not even necessary. Everything has it's cause and effects. If your neighbours do it on purpose he/she or they like to disturbed people then you can rest assured in his life or business he will kena the same *disturbance all the time too ..... /rofl
lesson 2. Forgiveness is key and for the adept seeker, forgiveness is not even necessary because he understand and will be /rofl.... or at least amused.
Amused
adjective
finding something funny or entertaining.
"people looked on with amused curiosity"
3. Karma. It's Nature is just cause and effects. If you're up to it it'll even serve you better if you sent blessings to them for their ignorant acts if done on purpose if not on purpose forgive them you'll be surprise how things will work out soon enough for the Universe or GOD works in mysterious ways. Menacing /malice energy (Karma) reflects back to the One who create it on purpose is pretty funny is it not ? lol...........
Lesson 3. Karma = Cause / Effects be careful even with those 'self talks/thoughts'
4. When you have no anger, frustration, jealousy, anxiety etc because you've forgiven everyone and everything there's an emotion/energy or vibration that will seek you out or sync with you it's call 'Bliss' it's welp, a blissful emotion and when prolonged it's even ecstatical. Try some.... lol
Lesson 4. Be nice, it's even more fun.
Intelligence is not connected to thought. It is connected to consciousness. When the psychological mind ends, what remains is Pure Awareness, ie Awareness that is not connected to thought. Being present and just be.
The noisy, disturbing, intrusive ups and downs end, but the practical, discriminating mind merges with the heart. It is a bit like thinking, but without thought. Emotional ups and downs are replaced by lasting bliss, love, peace.
Enlightenment upgrades/liberates 7 generations of the family, we're always connected all is energy. It upgrades all of creation. Stillness saves and transforms. It reduces negativity, violence, crime, poverty, disease, ignorance, suffering in the world.
When the person or 'I' disappears, that is the end of karma, the end of suffering, the end of 'seeking' the work/path, the end of reincarnation, the end of the mundane world to him/her because it no longer arises within, no longer moves you - stillness remains, the deathless Death.
Silence is not the absence of sound, it is the absence of you or 'I' the ego self.
Nirvana is a mental orgasm....... lol
Be well. :P <3
