The reason I asked is that he made a comment awhile back about how he loved the 4G paint, I wasn't sure if he made the switch or not - couldn't tell with the wetsanding...can't wait to see the finished results.

i thought about painting it 4g green, cut my painter talked me out of it, he said that i would love the way this green looks in the sun and he was right. so i stuck with it. also i didnt want to have to do the jambs and all that stuff.
