So last Saturday I was able to paint the doors. I used a Behr exterior paint with primer built in and it went down very nicely, just took a little effort.
http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2369Medium.jpg Before painted, I lightly sanded down the front face of the texture 1 - 11 to get it nice and smooth with a belt sander. It's pretty rough when you buy it. This would look better, and make the paint go on easier... http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2348Medium.jpg I used some putty on all of the screw holes and little imperfections. Here they are, all prepped for paint: http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2351Medium.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2352Medium.jpg Laid on the first coat: http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2356Medium.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2358Medium.jpg Laid on the second coat nice and thick... came out pretty well: http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2359Medium.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...2362Medium.jpg This weekend I'm planning to head out there and paint the inside face of both doors. I have some hinges coming next week so the doors are on hold until then. I am going to try to start figuring out the small door in the other room and if I think of a good idea that is doable same day I will get started on it. Otherwise I will get going on the drywall mudding.... ugh... Work sucks, otherwise this shit would have been done months and months ago. |
Finished painting the other sides of the doors.
Did a couple errands and figured out a thorough plan for the small door. Just have to enact it now. http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...302081747a.jpg Ambly I know you're going to say this one is blurry.... so ... cameraphone. Deal with it. http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...0302081747.jpg This coming weekend I should be able to hang the big doors, as well as construct, paint, and hang the small door. That would be HUGE.... and I think it's doable. |
Comin along nicely. What all is left? Just the floor, finishing the walls and hanging the doors?
