Painting The Potting Shed Day 2


Day 2 of applying the 33V Teak Extreme Protection Woodstain to the potting shed, Yesterday I had worked all the woodstain out of the brush as much as possible on the back panel of the shed.

This morning I tapped the bristles on the brush with a hammer and worked the brush by painting the top, rear panel to get the bristles open and working again.

I finished off the panel below the window, The window is damaged and I have a replacement panel. for the moment I have pained what I can get at but when I remove the flashing timbers I will paint them all round and I will cut into window framing timber around the glazing before it goes back in. 


Front view of the potting shed, the front and door gable end are the most sun bleached the rear gable and rear don't get as much direct sun. 
I only managed to get the timber between the top and bottom row of windows painted and again all the windows and restraining trim will be taken off and painted when I have more time.

I didn't manage to get the timber under the bottom row of windows painted today, as I had a nurses appointment at 2pm.

The bottom panels are a job for the next dry sunny day which looks to be a week away as there are thunderstorms and rain over the weekend and the early part of next week. The top of the gable and bargeboard need painting but I need to make a platform so I can reach to paint them.
