Current Project: Hamilton Mountain

ColorScapes current project in West Hamilton.

All previous walls were builder's beige in a relatively
new home model.


We used Sherwin Williams' ProMar 200

Low VOC Eggshell for wall work and also resprayed the

downstairs bartop and sides with BA
Akvaline 212 W/B clear - an outstanding resilient

coating for wet splash and drink spillage resistance.


Project came in on budget of $2752.00 and was completed
in 5 working days. Work included - repainting of two large media/entertainment
rooms (walls), kitchen side alcove walls and restain/refinishing an aged bartop.


Great thanks to Lisa and Tony P. for the opportunity to work on their
fine home. Thanks also to Ken Motta for the assist on the project.

Colours:

Jefferson House (below Chair Rail -ICI)

Kilim Beige (Sherwin Williams)
Artesian White (above rail)
Ruby Red (Moore's) - Kitchen Side Alcove
Cloud White - Trim (Moore's)

Draught taps installed by Draught Services of Burlington,ON.

Waterborne Lacquer Spray Shop - Lacquer vs Acrylic Paint

Over the last few years we have received a lot

of inquiries about painting kitchen cabinets -
especially aged old oak, builder-type and veneer
surfaces...over the years we have applied
everything from semi-gloss oils, melamines

and waterborne acrylics with a mixture of results.

That being said - the most technically advanced
pigmented waterborne lacquers are the BEST, 
hands down !


With a KCMA rating of plus +5, these coatings
resist staining, humidity and repeated washing
better than most car finishes.!!! They meet

VOC Compliance Article 59 for reduction of HAPS

emissions by M.O.E. standards and are much
safer for us applicators to use and apply.
Homeowners can also easily touch up a ding

or scratch with these relatively new products.

We are shocked that some so-called contractors
are still painting people's trim and woodwork
with fast yellowing oil-based and melamine coatings.

Big disservice to your clients who have to repaint

in 16-18 months. !

The value of painting your home prior to sale

cannot be understated !

Great thanks to Iola B. for the project ;)

Hardie Siding Installation

In Fall 2008 we completed a small project in Muskoka

for the owner of Paradigm Speakers. Pictured is final

result. Hardie Siding is pre-treated with fungicide and

carries a 35yr warranty against mold or mildew development.

Check out the new Rock Outdoor Speakers line they are

phenomenal !
