Cleaning and painting day!
Clean the shower (long overdue) …
… and the front door (the unpainted side).
Touch-up paint needed all over the bathroom / laundry room.
And now the ceiling in bedroom 1. Some boards were added where they were missing from long ago when they paved over it (or, rather, under it) with ceiling panels.
Primer first.
It is covering fairly well. The roller is kind of useless as it doesn’t get into the grooves (tongue-and-groove boards).
The priming is finished. Next, paint. I wonder how it will turn out.
Next, the trim boards. I hope it looks sharp.
And now it is complete. I think it looks good.
Now for bedroom 2. I started out by cleaning the drywall mud off the ceiling boards but found that it can actually be washed. Because there were no missing boards, and the paint wasn’t in such bad shape (only nail holes), I decided to leave it in its original 1940s paint scheme.
So I started washing it using antibacterial Windex, but this is hard work, and my tennis elbow finally had enough.
I’ll continue in the morning.
