A beautiful but most important incredibly long las

A beautiful but most important incredibly long lasting paint job!
-
This amazing home is a few hundred yards from the ocean so the paint job takes a beating. The previous painters’ job only lasted a couple years due to inferior quality paint and improper application. We expect ours to last much longer. 10 years is not unreasonable. While I’m sure our upfront cost is significantly higher, the cost per year is much lower. We are confident using FPE is the best value for our clients.
-
We did extensive preparation followed by @finepaintsofeurope primer and two coats of Eco Brilliant. This is the longest lasting exterior house paint on the market. With all the labor involved in a project like this, using the best paint and getting a longer life out of the paint job is a no brainer!
-
@drew_zkpainting and the rest of our team did a great job on this one!

How beautiful is this! - It might not look good to

How beautiful is this!

It might not look good to everyone but to me a well masked off space like this is a beautiful thing. Masking is the first step in a kitchen cabinet refinish process. We cover ever surface not being painted so when we spray we don’t damage anything.
-
This process is labor intensive but essential. @drew_zkpainting and Jesse did a great job here. Usually we mask the inside of the boxes but in this case the interiors are being painted.

Great gloss requires an immense amount of prep work. This ceiling for @kathrynhuftondesign is going to be amazing.
-
We first sanded then primed it with @finepaintsofeurope oil primer to lay a solid base. Then multiple skim coats were applied with extensive sanding followed by more primer coats and more skim coats.
-
Building up the substrate and sanding it back is how we create that smooth and flat substrate that high gloss looks so good on!

These doors were extensively sanded to flatten and expose the details as well as removing any loose or peeling paint. We then used a 2 part polyester filler to do our initial filler round. These are the first steps to a great restoration.
-
Next step is one of the 4-5 coats of @finepaintsofeurope oil primer before we do a ton more sanding and then apply Hollandlac satin.
-
Notice how all the paint came off the Dutchman on the bottom of one of the doors?
-
This project for @seadar_construction is going to be quite the transformation!

Our newest weapon in the fight against dust! - Thi

Our newest weapon in the fight against dust!
-
This tool looks to be a game changer for dust control. It uses air and inculcation tungsten emitters to neutralize static. We keep it charged and before we spray our final coat we attach our air line to the gun. We spray the surfaces being painted to neutralize the static charge. This prevents dust from being drawn to our work and gives us a better finished product!

Exterior clear coats are a true luxury product due

Exterior clear coats are a true luxury product due to the upfront costs and annual maintenance paired with their extreme beauty.
-
These mahogany handrails were sanded to a fresh layer before hand rubbing on the first of 8 coats of @finepaintsofeurope Marine Yacht Varnish. The remaining coats will be brushed.
-
The sanding process is labor intensive as is the application of 8 coats of oil varnish that needs 24 hrs to dry between coats and a light sand between each. This large upfront cost is unavoidable but with an annual maintenance coat applied the handrails will look amazing in perpetuity.
-
The first coat of varnish is thinned 40% to help it penetrate into the wood, the 2nd coat is thinned 30%, the 3rd 20%, and 4th-8th coats 5-10%

Taking doors off site to finish is a huge competit

Taking doors off site to finish is a huge competitive advantage for us and a great value to our clients.
-
These doors are part of our penthouse condo project for @evolveresidential They have been sprayed with the same paint and type of sprayer as the rest of the trim. That way they will marry together perfectly when reinstalled. How good is that @finepaintsofeurope Hollandlac satin!
-
Removing the doors makes working in the tight space of a condo easier and more efficient. These doors will be stored at our shop until the floors are done and the first phase of the project is completed. Thanks to @fast_rack_equipment they will be loaded into our trailer just like this for a safe and easy transport back to the site.

Not all medallions are created equal! - The existi

Not all medallions are created equal!
-
The existing medallion was a ugly, cheap, and made of foam. The team @inspiredornamentalllc has a catalog of over 50 medallions they have taken out of historic homes and made molds of.
-
We showed the client a few options that fit the style and design of the space. After they chose this one I suggested we paint a few accent pieces in a metallic paint to match the light fixture.
-
It’s a subtle change but really impacts the feeling of the space! We will continue to advocate for adding accent colors to medallions. Monochromatic white is just so boring!
