Local reports indicate that paint equipment deliveries have been continuing and a little testbed for the paint facility may in the process of installation.

Margaret Button: A cheesy, easy breakfast bake? No problem. Picking out paint … that’s another story | Food

For at least the past three years, I have been trying to pick a paint color for my living room and kitchen. I never liked the color we originally chose (well, actually my husband chose), when rebuilding our home after a house fire 11 years ago. It’s a café au lait color and, since we were picking out the floor tiles and the countertops, they all looked great together. However, now that I want to repaint the rooms another color, finding a color that will complement the gray, beige-y floor and countertops, a mixture of golden tans, browns and black, is more daunting than I ever imagined.Walking into the paint department of a store is a nightmare. For indecisive people like me, there should be a color palette of 10 or fewer colors, but no, walk into a paint de...

Here’s Exactly How To Use Farrow & Ball’s 2021 Trending Paint Colors

When Farrow & Ball released its color trend predictions for 2021 last week, the British brand did the hard work—aka the palette creation—for us, grouping the hues into four chic combinations that take the guesswork out of what actually goes together. “The breadth of our palettes allows people not to be too constrained by a singular color, [especially] as we reconsider our new way of living,” says Patrick O’Donnell, an international brand ambassador for the company. “Multiple areas of the home have gained increased importance, so we wanted to offer a versatile selection that allows for different ambiences, from the home office to calm spaces that take us away from work.” In the spirit of spending more time living and working indoors, we asked O’Donnell exactly where...

Sept. Tech Reviews: Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition, Foundry Flix 6.3 & Silhouette Paint for Nuke

Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition Of all of the newer laptop/mobile workstations that have recently come out with the latest RTX card, the Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition is the newest and visually the sexiest, in my opinion. The new model has an anodized finish on top of a body milled from a block of aluminum (which I found a little sharp on the edge) and an illuminated color keyboard which could be just glitzy glamor, but I found it practical to map specific colors to keys, similar to the Avid keyboards of long ago (I’m sure they are still around). But to move beyond the slick exterior: The first asset is the 4K touch display that extends to nearly the edge with a minimal bezel, with a 100% DCi-P3 color gamut — which is the standard that the American film industry has set for movie projectors....

Top Designers Say These Are the Best White Paint Colors Ever

If the thought of choosing a paint color pains you, picking out a perfect shade of white is a nightmare come to life. Pure white? Off white? Simply white? Whether you’re painting a home office, ceiling, or the walls of your master bedroom, choosing the right white makes more of a difference than you’d think. To save you from the headache of trying to decide between hues that seem nearly indistinguishable, we got the scoop from top designers on the best shades of white, and where to use them."As a colorist, white is seldom on my mind, but when I need a neutral gallery-esque background, I reach for Cloud Nine by Benjamin Moore. I painted the exterior of my office building in this particular shade and it's the perfect contrast to the gloss black trim." - MA AllenBuy Now"Snow Day is the perfec...

Greene’s Jewelers downtown will be getting a new look, with a completely painted facade.The mainstay at 328 Broad St. won approval from the Rome Historic Preservation Commission Wednesday to whitewash the brick on the lower third of its facade. The color will match the white paint on the upper two-thirds of the store.The vote to support the project was unanimous, without any controversy, but the request sparked a lively discussion about the merits of painting brick.Community Planner Brittany Griffin presented a review of guidelines that govern the painting of historic brick.

Black DC artist uses body paint to give subjects a voice | Lifestyle

WASHINGTON – As it tends to do, inspiration came to Cierra Lynn Taylor in the form of a whim.She had already turned furniture, clothes and bathroom stalls into canvases when she decided to sweep a paintbrush across her daughter Jaela's skin.She covered the girl's back with black paint, and then reached toward the white."I am," she wrote in block letters between the girl's shoulder blades.In her next strokes, she surrounded that phrase with words she wanted her daughter to remember: Worthy. Powerful. Beautiful. Black and Proud. Enough.It was one of the first pieces of body art the Black D.C. artist, who is known simply by her first and middle name to those who follow her work, created. She snapped photos of it and, as she tends to do with her artwork, shared...

2021 GMC Yukon Has Mismatched Liftgate Paint

A 2021 GMC Yukon owner was surprised to see their new SUV was delivered with a liftgate that was a different color than the rest of the vehicle. The owner posted photos of their 2021 GMC Yukon in a Facebook group, confirming that their Summit White SUV was delivered with a liftgate painted in White Frost Tintcoat. Summit White is a no-cost gloss paint, whereas White Frost Tintcoat is a $1,095 option and has a metallic finish. Obviously quality control at General Motors‘ Arlington Assembly plant in Texas should have picked up on this rather obvious flaw, but it somehow went unnoticed. The dealership also could have picked up on the issue, but delivered it to the customer anyway. The owner says they drove it around for three weeks questioning whether or not the liftgate was suppose...

Tesla Giga Berlin’s paint facility makes grown men look microscopic

Tesla’s revolutionary new paint shop at the Giga Berlin production facility in Germany is taking shape. The size of the building is striking, and recent photographs give viewers a great visual image of how large the structure is compared to some of the workers on site. The massive structure is expected to change Tesla’s paint quality, which has been an admitted struggle of the electric automaker for years. In April, CEO Elon Musk stated that Giga Berlin would receive a brand new paint shop that would provide high-quality colors in multiple layers that change with the curvature of the car’s body. Musk said: “Giga Berlin will have world’s most advanced paint shop, with more layers of stunning colors that subtly change with curvature.” Giga Berlin will have world’s most advanced paint shop, ...

Custom truck paint job with Auto Air Colors, LMC Truck on 2003 Chevy Silverado overland build

When we left off last month, we had installed the SnugTop shell and giant Yakima rack, and we were pretty much out of things to do except tear the truck down for paint, so we can bolt on all the cool parts we've been collecting. Behind the scenes, we've slowly been taking care of the prep for paint, first by getting rid of all the stock trim, then roughing out the really bad spots on our junkyard bed and tailgate with some rudimentary metal shaping and filler work. Then we found a reasonable body man for hire who knocked out the rest of the bad spots for us. From there, we spot-primered the whole truck, then gave it a wet sand with 220-grit sandpaper. We did it all again with 400-grit then finally attached the new HD hood from LMC Truck and hit the road for LGE-CTS.While this quick and dir...
