This was a fun and FAST transformation.. It took me under 2 hrs to paint everything.. Thanks to my daughter taking an extended nap! First we lightly sanded the wood. I didn't use a primer (Mostly because I am just lazy and impatient!). I just bought a really good exterior paint.. Benjamin Moore Aura exterior in a nice flat finish. I painted one Full coat and then just went around and did some touch ups where ever it needed it. I can't say enough good things about this paint, It went on smooth with superior coverage. 1 coat almost covered everything for me. It dried fairly fast but was still a bit tacky a day later probably due to painting on a humid sunny day or maybe because I applied the paint a little thicker? Take a look below to see the full transformation...
