Garage 1/2 Bath repaint

  • For some time we have wanted to repaint
    • First order of business was to remove the glued on mirror above the sink. YouTube showed how to use shimming wedges to 'pop' the mirror off of the wall without breaking the mirror.
      • Inserted wedges left to right from the top, tapped down a bit at a time, and then doubled up the wedges until the mirror released. I had secured some cording to prevent the mirror from tumbling down, which worked very well.
    • Wall cleanup: sanded and spackled the adhesive spots, and the double-sided foam tape along the top. Sanded and textured.
    • Painted the room using the 'clover green' that we used in the Craft BR.
    • Needed to rework the foam tape which left a line
      • Removed tape residue using paint scraper.
      • re-sanded, and re-spackled, then resanded again
      • Repainted the mirror wall, and touched up a few other areas.
