Next Up; Windows and Doors!

The last bit of work to complete the salon would be to paint the doors' window frames and interior side. At this point, we decided to complete the re-do of the window at the upstairs landing.

The glass panes were in fair condition, but the glazing compound was dry and crumbly. After sanding, replacing the glaze, and priming the frames, they were ready to paint! (Check the number of panes in this window - 4!)

We were feeling closer to a finished salon. 



Paint stations were set up, and we were motivated to see the room completely finished!


 
Next came the interior side of the doors. We attempted to remove the heavy oil-based paint from the other bedroom's interior doors upstairs with no luck. So again, we opted to sand the surface and apply a coat of paint.


When you see a man with a paintbrush in each hand, you have seen a Pro!




The temperature spiked (hence the shorts and bare feet!), making the paint feel thicker and dry very fast. Day two found us beginning work much earlier in the morning.

Check back soon for the finished room photos.

And if you have, thanks for reading.

Au Revoir!
