First coat of paint finished!

This is the paint we got from Sherwin Williams. It's called Pro Classic, and we had them tint it to the color "Alabaster". Which is not bright white, but a very beautiful soft white. Unless it's glaring at you in the afternoon in the sun, then it's bright stinking white!



I mixed the paint and paint thinner in a container and did the "one thousand one..." test. Then I poured it into the sprayer through a filter, and off I went! I sprayed the backs of all my cabinets and only had to fill the paint sprayer cup twice.

I got everything painted and it looks lovely! I just wish the paint can didn't say "wait 24 hours for recoat". So lame. So they baked in the sun all day, I sanded them with 400 grit sandpaper and they are ready to paint the 2nd coat in the morning. Then, hopefully by mid afternoon I can flip them and i can prime the fronts. Eeek, so excited!
