I made this album on my family's Blog site. It's easier to post the link instead of posting pictures directly here. There are some duplicate pictures I already posted on this thread.

Here is an update. I got all the primer done and pretty much all of the painting done. Still got some small areas and some sanding/touchups to do. Also got the carpet pulled out... hopefully will be getting the rest of the painting done this week and the new flooring this weekend (April 1st). Hoping to have it all completed by second Saturday in April.436Views0likes0CommentsRe: And the Renovation Begins (5er, Cosmetic, Flooring)

The cabinet frames are taking the paint just fine, hopefully they'll hold up (if not all that is lost is $15 in paint). The walls are luan, and appear to have a wallpaper covering them. Decided it wasn't worth the effort to scrape the 30 year old paper off, so I just did primer and paint. Again, took it well and hopefully will last long enough.436Views0likes0CommentsRe: And the Renovation Begins (5er, Cosmetic, Flooring)

Thank you for the suggestions, but personally I've had a bad experience with the floating vinyl plank a few years ago. Had to tear it all out and put down tile instead; it kept seperating at the seams. Won't touch the stuff since.435Views0likes0CommentsRe: And the Renovation Begins (5er, Cosmetic, Flooring)

Took about 6 hours for three people to scrub everything down till it stopped giving off sticky stuff. Thankfully I have all the tools and such, so pretty much everything will be done for the cost of supplies. Should be done with spraying the primer tomorrow (about half done now) and will have more pictures soon!436Views0likes0Comments
