The brick required thorough preparation after extensive exterior renovation work had left the surface heavily soiled. We carefully washed the brick to ensure a clean, sound surface before applying the coating.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x1yc453h x1hpqcdg x1ekroe6 xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 xkyrhof x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw x1tbvfm1 xb72syl x1iew0xx x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\">The factory-finished white windows, doors, and exterior trim were transformed with Tricorn Black, using Sherwin-Williams Latitude for the doors and door frames. Because the doors had a factory finish, they required additional preparation to ensure proper adhesion. Each surface was sanded, cleared of debris, and thoroughly cleaned with methyl hydrate before painting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x1yc453h x1hpqcdg x1ekroe6 xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 xkyrhof x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw x1tbvfm1 xb72syl x1iew0xx x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\">The combination of the warm pewter-toned brick and crisp black trim creates a clean, modern exterior while maintaining the character of the home. Careful surface preparation and the use of high-performance exterior products helped ensure a durable, long-lasting finish.<\/p>\n<h3>Products<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Sherwin-Williams Loxon XP Elastomeric Masonry Coating<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Colors<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Roycroft Pewter (SW 2848)<\/li>\n<li>Tricorn Black<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][uncode_custom_fields post_type=&#8221;projects&#8221; custom_fields_single_projects=&#8221;detail-485842&#8243; custom_fields_single_resources=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-190564&#8243; medias=&#8221;148226,148231,148228&#8243; dynamic=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; media_items=&#8221;media|lightbox|original,icon|md&#8221; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_overlay_color=&#8221;color-dblue&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_h_align=&#8221;center&#8221; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; single_icon=&#8221;fa fa-plus&#8221; single_border=&#8221;yes&#8221; single_css_animation=&#8221;top-t-bottom&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;218173&#8243;][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;p&#8221; text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;335012&#8243;]Before Pictures:[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-41844&#8243; medias=&#8221;148266,148267,148263&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; media_items=&#8221;media|lightbox|original,icon|md&#8221; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_width=&#8221;2&#8243; images_size=&#8221;one-one&#8221; single_overlay_color=&#8221;color-dblue&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_h_align=&#8221;center&#8221; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; single_icon=&#8221;fa fa-plus&#8221; single_border=&#8221;yes&#8221; single_css_animation=&#8221;top-t-bottom&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;237156&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row unlock_row_content=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;737621&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_button button_color=&#8221;color-dblue&#8221; size=&#8221;link&#8221; btn_link_size=&#8221;h5&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;right-t-left&#8221; animation_speed=&#8221;600&#8243; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":148264,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"project_category":[450],"class_list":["post-148259","projects","type-projects","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project_category-residential"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/148259","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/projects"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/148259\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":148270,"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/148259\/revisions\/148270"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148264"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148259"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elitetradepainting.com\/ottawa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_category?post=148259"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
