Crystal Springs Painting crew Luis Romero and Silvano Gonzales (in order, seen below) worked overtime Saturday helping keep us on schedule and taking advantage of fewer other trades underfoot while they put paint on everything that’s not floor, stone or metal or glass. Shown also are some early looks at how the paint selections will work together. Even though I titled the one image “Amalfi Red,” Luis says that’s not actually Amalfi Red. Rather, it’s the three coats of undercoating, preparing the wall so that the Amalfi Red–which is a clear base paint, and therefore difficult to cover whatever’s underneath and causing non-professional painters to pull their hair out–can hopefully achieve full coverage with just three coats.
