Stripped, sanded resin filled. The white window was a replacement a while back so at least we had one bonus of very little prep on that one 😂
Putty replacement next on the agenda… we are using Repaircare Dryseal which is a polymer that comes in a tube it’s fast drying but remains flexible and can be overpainted on the same day as application saving time 👍🏻

Weapons!

Next project same property!
Stupidly forgot to take a series of “before” pictures 🤦🏻‍♂️🙈.
These windows were very flaky and dry. Again best to strip and start again.
Benjamin Moore paint system being utilised again on these but as always it’s all in the prep with sanding, filling and a few resin repairs being carried out before we even think about popping the lid on the paint!

Nearly there! Uncovered some rot so we used some Repair Care epoxy resin coupled with some spliced wood blocks to repair. The beauty of epoxy resin over the much used two part filler is that it not only lasts a lot longer but also moves in harmony with the wood so less likely to crack, two part can also be very brittle.
Benjamin Moore Fresh Start primer on the canopy.
Fingers crossed for decent weather to get this wrapped up early next week, then onto the windows at the rear of the property

Well the weather hasn’t been massively kind but we’ve managed to get the canopy stripped and an undercoat out on the front door. The undercoat has been tinted to the same colour as the topcoat to ensure depth of colour.
A full Benjamin Moore paint system is being used on this project….👀this space

Progress! As this property is listed we had to take extra care especially as there’s never any knowing what’s under all those layers of paint.
As such all paint was stripped using steam rather than a heat gun…long process but worth it.
Sanded using the Festool dust extraction sander over two grits. All joints were routed out and filled with epoxy resin which allows for movement minimising risk of the wood splitting.
More prep required before any paint is applied….and then there’s the canopy to strip too!!
