It is probably my favorite place to paint my house. The house I grew up in is filled with a lot of memories and I love the colors and the old bricks and paint.
So I recently painted my house in a palette of colors I picked up at a garage sale and I was blown away by how well it turned out. The colors are bright and bold and have a great contrast to the black and gray of the house. And I was also surprised how well it dried.
The colors that you see in the video are actually the color of the house itself, which is a grayish-green. I painted in a black/gray combo and then sealed the edges with a little water-based sealer. The painting is over a three-day period and I should be done the next day.
The paint was applied twice. When I did this, I had to do it in the morning and the afternoon. It’s really important to do this at the right moment so the paint isn’t sitting in a dark room. Plus, there was one big painting I needed to do, which was a full coat of gloss paint that is a bright, neon green.
A few things to note about this painting. First of all, I painted it with a very high gloss paint. It was hard to get the paint on the walls and the ceiling smooth. I would have preferred the paint to have been a little drier which would have made it easier to work with.
I would have liked to have had the paint drier installed earlier on since this painting is more about color than it is about the texture of the paint. Second, I painted this with an oil based paint that dries fast. It could be that the oil based paint would have been a little stronger if it had been left to dry longer, but it has a slight yellow tint to it which is a little odd.
I think that oil is the perfect choice for this project since it is durable and can dry quickly. I would have liked to have had it installed earlier on because it would have given the paint more life. It was a little tough to get the paint to dry as fast as it was supposed to do.
It’s always a problem to remove the paint once it’s on the home, but oil based paint can dry in just about any situation, including in the garage (especially if it’s oil based). I had to do a little bit of a lot of sanding to get the paint off, but it’s really easy and I would recommend it.
My dad painted our home for years and years, and I can assure you it took. It can take some time, but it’s worth it.
I have to say that it took a lot of sanding. After it was on and it was drying, I had to go through a few coats of latex paint. It takes a lot of patience and a lot of effort to get your house painted to look nice and fresh. The latex paint is very difficult to work with. I know my dad used to spend a lot of time working with latex paint. This is the first time I’ve seen it this way.
