When painting is a crime...
I must admit, painting over natural rimu timber feels criminal. I had a desire to polyurethane the well-prepared weatherboard cladding of this old home, to show off the beautiful native timber grain. But my client wanted it to match the rest of the paintwork on her house, and in the end, it's what the customer wants that's important! So I left this job with a before and after picture, ...and very a vhappy client!
