1/2 It took approximately 5 minutes to realise this wasn’t going to be a simple freshen up of these window sills🫣

An abundance or rot removal left some rather large voids. Thankfully the customer had some replacement timber for the very worst areas - the remainder allowed me to put Oxera Repair Products rebuild resin to the test 💪

Toupret UK wood hardener & wood filler, Caparol haftprimer, followed by 2x Sandtex Trade Paint X-tra eggshell were the other ingredients 🎨

Making the world a prettier place for Postman Pat ✨

The normal prep routine with some Toupret UK wood hardener & filler, Oxera Repair Products rebuild resin & glazing sealant, followed by Caparol haftprimer and Johnstone's Trade Paints water based satin 🎨

Annoyingly I couldn’t get a lot of the existing paint off the glazing without risking damage, so just had to straighten things out ☀️

Another few weeks stripping, still no dollar bills 💵

This really was an exercise in patience and process. Strip, sand, fill, sand, seal, paint x3 🧘‍♂️

We’re up to August ‘25, when sunshine was a reliable friend ☀️

I could have happily spent several more days prepping these doors, but that wasn’t the specification this time, so just needed to make them weather proof and add some straight lines where I could. Toupret UK wood filler and glazing putty, along with Oxera Repair Products glazing sealant helped to achieve this 💪

Brouns & Co linseed oil paint was a new one for me to use, especially having to mix up a few ingredients for the primer coat. The paint was lovely to use, although I did have to be super vigilant spotting runs 🎨

A first venture into glitter - and it went rather successfully, resulting in a really unique look for this dressing room 🎨

Happy 2026 ✨

I’ve been so busy over the last few months I’ve neglected posting, so the New Year’s resolution is to get back on track!

Here’s a throwback to summer ‘25 with a great project climbing around scaffolding for a few weeks. A late finish meant I wasn’t able to take all the after pics I’d have wanted, so here’s a snapshot of some of the prep and a few shiny finished pics 📸
