Hand Painted Kitchen Essex

Post by Lewis H »

I've posted this elsewhere on the ol' interweb so thought I might as well post it up here too. Finished this kitchen on Monday, first one of the year. It's made from some very old reclaimed pine that used to be part of the specimen racking in The Natural History Museum in London. Lots and lots of prep, Blackriar PS Primer, more prep, 1 undercoat, more prep and 3 coats of Little Greene eggshell with lots of prep in between coats. I stripped off the dresser worktop and treated it with Osmo Topoil.

Me and the clients very happy with the end product. :huray:

Thanks chaps :thumbleft:

Where are you transitboy?

Not to worry Rob, the extra day on prep didn't do any harm mate :lol:

ROC, no rollers mate. Corona Morro brushes, nothing else puts oil based paint down like them.
