1st color-up
« on: May 20, 2011, 08:51:59 AM »
I've been sampling colors and stains for about a year now and I finally got the courage to paint one up. Of course I forgot to take a before picture, this shed was white. It turned out AWESOME. I had a couple sheds from the same area set next to it while I was underway to get the colors just right.

2nd pic is definitely a better shot.  Looks pretty good.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Cabot, bark color, semi-transparent. Then the work started with the 220 and 320 sanding sponges. Might have to do another today :dunno:
