Philco 38-62 cabinet restoration
#40

When we bought this house and I was painting the insides all by myself, while painting the ceiling in my son's room I painfully saw every little lint that was there from my Purdy rollers....I painstakingly picked every single one with my fingers and re-rolled over them.....this is the best looking ceiling in the whole house, even though I did after 3 years hire some pros to finish the painting when I got tired of doing it myself.

When you do it for yourself, the results are usually way better than when you get paid to do it.
