The House Painting Project

The guest cottage stripped of its paint.  House is nearly complete now too.  Painting may start as early as next week.  Been promised the job will be done before we move on/around June 28th.  Keep praying that is the case.  The weather has to cooperate as well.  Tropical Storm Andrea is threatening us at the moment.

The door side was done with an infrared heater device called the Speedheater...the remainder of the project has been completed with a handheld planer of sorts called a paintshaver.  Not an easy task no matter how you do it.  The hard labor workers don't like me much...the end result is a long lasting paint job with Allback Organic Linseed Oil paint with 50 year life span.

The final side of the house and dormers to complete the stripping of old paint
