Going with the Grain

Going with the Grain
Sometimes the best way to stand out is to go with the grain, rather than against it.  At least in the case of faux wood finishes that is. SWFL garage doors typically have a pre-grained wood texture even though they are range in color from bright white to off white. When painting on a faux wood finish the grain grooves enhance the look even more. Why have a faux wood finish painted on? It gives the home’s exterior serious curb appeal, the cost savings is enormous compared to replacing the garage door, and then there’s that wonderful SW FL sun and humidity that makes real wood next to impossible to keep fresh and gleaming.
A client who recently purchased a home in gorgeous SW Florida knew immediately that, even though the home was beautiful, it needed some serious updated curb appeal. One of the projects was to take the white garage doors and them faux painted in a medium tone:


The possibilities are endless! Take a look at some other faux wood creations we've painted:



Faux wood painting is perfect for front doors too!:
