How To Paint Exterior Wood Siding

My journey transforming this house from yellow to HELLO is finally coming to a close after a whole summer of hard work!

Thanks for Behr paint for supplying their amazing products to get this house looking amazing! I used Behr Marquee for everything, but I couldn't find that line available online for my colors, so I linked what I could...

I was a mechanic for about 50 years. As a young mechanic I got married. As a married mechanic I wore a ring. As a mechanic my hands were often near some powerful moving parts. One day one of those parts tried to remove my ring. Today I have no rings but I do have a finger.

I think painting the chimney will bring everything together, that is a great idea!!!!

Pressure-washing is addictive. Once you start you can't stop. I lived decades as a homeowner, wondering what the big deal was. Then I bought my first pressure washer and it was indeed "life changing" as you said! You know you have a problem when, at bedtime, you start watching the numerous pressure-washing videos available on YouTube.

I'm glad you mentioned PPE. Pressure washing, sanding and spray painting all of which puts particulates into the air you are breathing. Molds, animal fecal matter, a wide variety of chemicals and carcinogens finding their way into your lungs. Please take care of yourself. Great video and amazing work, the house will have great curb appeal after you are done. 🙂🙏

Superb job Mel!!

Thanks for sharing!

Looking forward to seeing the rest of your renovations/changes on the exterior!

I am a big natural, rustic renovator, ie lover of natural old brick or wood, which we have so much of here in Spain.

But for the colour for your chimney, based on what you have chosen for the exterior, my gut feel, would be a dark burgundy/blood red colour tone.

Apologies in advance if you dislike that choice!

I am sure whatever you choose, it will look great!

Thanks again for sharing and please keep the videos coming!!

Nice Job. I vote to Seal and Paint the chimney.

Much much better than before. Color is a good choice, looking more modern already. I'm sure, u will put some good touches to it, because you are never done creating. Me and my wife are same, every year we keep adding new projects and ideas . And it became our lifestyle lol 🙂👍 chimney is asking for light grey cement finish .🙄
