Looks like the all gray era might be fading. I'm seeing more homeowners bring color back into their spaces, and I'm here for it.

This soft blue adds warmth, character, and just the right amount of personality.

Stopped by Walmart in South Arlington and had to snap a picture.

Not only do I trust FrogTape on my projects, but that's actually my hand featured in the product display photo. Pretty cool to see a little piece of my work every time I walk down the paint aisle.

Paint Failure Investigation 🧐
This is why proper prep and testing matter.
After cleaning this cabinet door, the topcoat is peeling right off with a simple scrub pad. The good news? The primer appears to be bonded well to the surface. The failure is occurring between the primer and topcoat, not between the primer and the cabinet itself.
This is a great example of why adhesion testing is an important part of cabinet refinishing. Identifying where the failure occurs helps determine the correct repair process and ensures a finish that will last.
Have you ever run into a coating failure like this on cabinets? Let me know your thoughts below.

Another exterior transformation completed in Highland Square! We used WoodScapes to give this Akron home a fresh, long-lasting finish while keeping the character of the neighborhood homes intact. What do you think of the before and after?

Probably one of my favorite projects. Huge thanks to all the volunteers who helped me paint Erza’s room it came out so well. I absolutely love what Special Spaces is doing in Cleveland and I’m grateful to be a small part of it. ❤️

I love when customers choose new doors it’s always nice having such a great substrate to work with. These doors are rock solid. Centurion CW1111 catalyzed with 2800 series for the win. 🔥

I love these fun, bold colors. Don’t get me wrong off whites and grays definitely have their place but as an artist, it’s always exciting to do something different. I love when homeowners put character and personality into their homes. Another beautiful interior transformation completed in North Canton!

Had the opportunity to help on this cabinet project around this time last year alongside master craftsman Shane Woods down in Deer Park, Texas for a beauty salon transformation.

Always a great experience when two high-level finishers come together to create something special. Attention to detail, smooth finishes, and craftsmanship at the highest level.
