  • @lasmith07

    Hey April, that stone would take on a totally different look with *traditional lime wash* (literally water+construction lime). It doesn't cause the damage that painting stone, brick and mortar does, it adheres well and can last for years without needing a fresh coat, and as it ages can take on a nice, natural patina. If you don't want it to just be white, you can dye the limewash if you go with an all natural dye although they are usually only available in earth tones. We did our exterior 3 years ago to get rid of ugly orange ish brick. Absolutely stunning results, looks like a completely different house

    Just painted mine on Saturday(16' x7'). Did it brush & roller, 2 coats (northern Canadian weather, want it to last long). As well propped the garage door up at diff heights to do the panel edges. Rather than mask, I just unscrewed the trim pieces and replaced them after all was dry. Even with my paint discount, I find it's crazy expensive to waste paint with any over spray.

    How you painted it perfectly fine. But cause I work with a lot of different paints when I used to work at a auto body shop. I am just in the habit of primer, base, and then clear. I applied that same principle to wood painting and such and I can say without a doubt that it usually is a much better finish and protection then just repainting over something.

    April, I know I said I liked it white, but I admit that I like the matching Blue better. 😁
    On another note, have you ever used any of the insulation kits for garage doors? My garage is also my shop space with the garage door facing the western sun. All summer long the space is hot as the hinges of hades and too hot to work. The kits are between $60 to $200, much cheaper than a new $3000 insulated door. 🤯. Thanks for the advice.

    • @michaelsunsdahl5874
      @michaelsunsdahl5874 Рік тому

      Was wondering the same thing! Tempted to lift door until the panels spread slightly and spray the gaps, but each would likely need to dry completely before moving on to the next. Also, the area behind the weatherstripping makes me think it would be better to remove it/paint/ and then replace with similar color, or some that matches the new trim color.

  • @ThomasBussmann
    @ThomasBussmann Рік тому

    tbh - nice owrk but I liked the white colored doors better in contrast to the relatively dark stone walls.
    The (nice) blueish color looks darker relatively to the stone wall.
    But as always, the beauty lays in the eye of the beholder.
    While I'm at it - at "complaining" that is;-) - lifting the garage door after paiting might allow dust particles from the garage ceiling to fall down onto the open garage door paint while it is still sticky, especially on windy days.
    Instead, putting a vertical protective foil in front of the garage door while the garage door is still down should protect it from the flying dust particles.
    But, of course, as always, it's just another way of doing it.
