DC Paint Solutions recently refurbished an old house sign which had over time become damaged. As the home feature was getting a tad old, the paint had also started to wear away, which made it look tired and dishevelled.
To get started, we first stripped down the paint using a sander along with some fine sandpaper for those difficult angles. The letters had then been carefully removed to repair the base of the sign as there were a few minor damages from being placed near the home fire. We sanded where the fire had eaten away at the base of the sign and then applied a wood filler. This was then sanded until it was flat and fitted the profile of the base perfectly.
The letters were then re-installed and attached into the right position with wood glue. To prep, the wood before it needed to be painted we used a special custom wood primer over the whole feature.
Once this had all cured, we also applied one of our new Coloured Lacquers; in this case, it was a deep red to go with the rest of the house interiors.
The end product turned our stunning and made a fantastic feature for any home. If you would like to try this out then make sure you have all the right equipment, from spray paint to safety gear.
