A
This
column
of
the
Bloomington
housing
authority
and
the
sponsors
of
summer
will
improvement
seminars
to
do
will
PR
people
to
know
who
we
are
and
also
help
answer.
The
questions
of
people
have
a
different
maintenance
at
home
on
the
table
began
brochures
for
home
improvement
holes
in
the
house,
including
lockers
tonight,.
A
C
C
Job
and
I
really
really
like
the
hirschfeld
family,
they're,
very,
very
cool
family
and
I,
just
kind
of
ended
up
sticking
with
them
over
the
years
kind
of
discovered
that
I
had
a
little
bit
of
a
knack
for
color.
My
doctor,
I,
don't
know
if
it's
a
bunch
of
baloney
or
not,
but
my
doctor
maintains
the
people
with
dark
hair
and
light
eyes,
see
color
more
accurately
than
people
with
dark
eyes.
C
C
So
remember
that
if
we
have
cool
evenings
where
you're
waking
up
in
the
morning-
and
you
know,
there's
a
nice
heavy
dew
on
your
lawn
like
there
was
the
other
day
when
I
had
to
spend
an
hour
and
a
half
cleaning,
my
more
out
after
I
mowed,
the
lawn.
So
if
you
got
a
heavy,
do
that
means
there's
moisture
in
the
air
chances
are
not
much
drying
happened
with
any
paint
you
apply
to.
You
know
the
day
before
overnight.
C
C
Getting
oils
into
that
wood
is
better
okay,
so
latex
primer
on
a
newer
home,
oil-based
primer,
on
an
older
home,
ok
and
then
always
to
finish
coats
like
we
were
all
talking
about
earlier,
one
primer.
If
you've
got
areas
where
you've
scraped
and
sand
down
to
bare
wood,
one
coat
of
primer
to
finish
coats
always
use
two
coats.
You've
got
all
your
prep
work
done.
You've
got
things
masked
off.
You've
got
all
the
work
done.
If
you
were
to
hire
a
painter.
C
C
C
If,
if
you,
if
that
five
thousand
dollar
bid
called
called
for
all
the
prep
work
and
one
coat
of
paint,
if
you
said
well,
you
know
what
I
think
I
want
two
coats
of
finish
coat
paid
they're
going
to
charge
you
give
or
take
they're
going
to
charge
you
fifty
percent
more
for
that
second
coat,
because
all
the
prep
work
is
done.
They
got
their
painters.
There
everything's
good
to
go.
It's
just
a
matter
of
going
around
the
house,
the
second
time
and
the
cost
of
the
paint.
C
C
You
know
considering
the
climate
we
live
in
and
what
it
goes
through,
I
think
of
that
south
side
of
the
house
son
the
beats
on
it,
my
goodness,
when
I
had
the
windows,
my
house,
built
in
nineteen
forty
when
I
in
the
windows
replaced
on
it.
The
windows
on
the
south
side
of
my
house,
the
glass
in
it
almost
become
like
iridescent
from
being
baked
by
the
Sun.
C
So
imagine
what's
happening
to
that
coat
of
paint
and
you're
going
to
try
and
tell
me
that
you
know
the
paint
you
buy
at
the
big-box
they're
going
to
say.
Oh
one
coat
of
paint
Saul,
you
need
to
paint
the
house
it'll
be
just
fine
baloney,
it's
not
going
to
be
happening,
my
neighbor
across
the
street.
Had
that
experience
you
know,
and
the
paint
was
peeling
off
the
Adirondack
chairs
that
she
bought.
C
She
didn't
know
surface
prep,
because
she
was
the
paint
primer
in
one
slept
on
two
coats
of
paint
paint
didn't
even
last
one
summer
season
and
the
paint
was
peeling
off
now
she
went
back
and
complain
this
home
and
give
your
money
back
on
it.
Well,
can
you
give
me
back
to
eight
hours,
I
spent
painting
the
chairs?
C
D
C
The
majority
of
peeling
paint
outside
is
usually
on
the
trim
of
a
house.
Okay
and
I
always
tell
my
customers,
you
can
flip
over
the
chips
and
that
kind
of
almost
serves
like
a
road
map,
and
you
can
kind
of
tell
what's
going
on.
First
thing
you
want
to
look
at
is
ok
if
it's
peeling
down
to
bare
wood
and
there's
multiple
layers
of
paint
coming
off.
I
can
tell
you
with
a
hundred
percent
certainty.
It's
to
Des,
Moines,
sure
law
of
physics.
C
Moisture
is
going
to
always
take
the
easiest
avenue
of
exit
that
it
can
from
a
home
a
family
of
four
people
living
in
a
house
in
the
wintertime.
When
the
house
is
closed,
up
puts
the
equivalent
just
by
doing
dishes,
taking
a
shower
or
cooking
doing
laundry
whatever
you
put
the
equivalent
of
five
gallons
of
moisture
into
the
air
a
day
so
think,
if
every
single
day
you
took
a
5-gallon
pail
of
water
and
poured
it
down
the
basement
floor
that
moistures
got
to
go
somewhere.
C
So
one
of
the
troubles
that
we're
finding
over
the
last
couple
decades
is
newer
homes
that
have
been
built,
so
tight
Moisture
can
escape
and
it's
causing
you.
You
hear
all
these
horror
stories
about
stucco
homes,
where
they've
got
mold
mildew
issues,
because
they've
gotten
the
houses
so
tight
in
the
name
of
energy
efficiency
that
they
can't
breathe
and
that
causes
paint
to
fail
on
the
windows,
because
that's
the
avenue
of
path
of
least
resistance,
let's
say
now
so
again.
Oil
primer
is
your
best
avenue.
C
Kind
of
a
ridge
where
the
paint
that's
still
sticking
in
the
paint,
that's
peeling
and
that
you're
going
to
have
to
take
some
medium
sandpaper
and
get
rid
of
that
Ridge,
okay
and
then
you're
going
to
spot
prime
it
okay,
let
them
let
the
primer
dry
thoroughly
and
then
go
ahead
and
paint
it
do.
You
have
windows
on
your
house
where
you
have
to
do
any
any
glazing
of
the
know.
How
about
you
guys
know
glazing?
How
about
you,
you
know.
Glazing
is
where
the
glass
and
the
wood
meet.
Ok.
C
So
if
you
scrape
out
the
old
glazing
tip
tip
that
I
can
give
you
there
that
so
many
people
overlook
you
scrape
out
that
old
glazing,
you,
prime
the
wood,
once
you
scraped
out
the
old
glazing,
then
you
reglaze
the
window.
Then
you,
prime
the
glazing,
then
you
repaint
and
the
reason
that
you're
going
you
know
because
so
many
times
I
get
people
in
I,
just
reglazed
this
window
last
summer
and
the
glazings
already
pulled.
C
E
C
C
Be
you
mean
after
you
do
your
prep
work?
Do
you
have
to
do
you
have
to
let
the
wood
dry
before
you
put
an
oil
primer
in
it?
It
would
all
depend
on
how
you're
prepping
it
if
you're
doing
sanding
and
scraping
no,
then
you
can
just
dust
it
off
with
an
old
paint
brush,
but
if
you're
using
a
power,
washer
or
you're
driving
moisture
into
the
wood,
that's
a
whole
different
discussion,
then
the
woods
got
to
be
dry.
E
C
Increased
I'm
frame
as
to
when
the
wood
will
be
dry
because
it's
it's
it's
whether
driven
I
can
tell
you
that
if
you're
using
a
power,
washer
I
want
72
hours
of
good
drying
whether
to
pass
before
you
put
any
paint
on
it
and
that's
72
hours
on
the
clock,
with
no
rain.
No
high
dew
points
anything
like
that.
That
would
basically
negate
any
priming
I
mean
any
drying.
C
E
E
C
C
Anybody
else
paint
scrapers,
my
favorite
type,
unfortunately
just
so
happens
to
be
the
most
expensive
type.
It's
a
carbide,
scraper
and
they're
really
really
sharp,
but
they've
got
a
little
handle
on
them
and
a
blade
kind
of
canted
at
an
angle,
and
you
can
scrape
a
sill
I
can
get
a
10
coats
of
paint
off
with
a
carbide
scraper
help
just
at
the
right
angle,
with
just
the
right
amount
of
pressure.
I
can
just
go
right
down
a
sill.
Take
all
the
paint
off
right
down
to
it.
It
just
works
beautifully.
F
E
C
C
C
Paint
pad,
you
know,
don't
dip
the
whole
thing
in
you,
don't
want
it
to
get
into.
You,
don't
want
to
dip
it
physically,
like
too
far
into
the
paint.
So
if
the
pink
kind
of
oozes
up
onto
the
top
of
it-
and
you
want
to
kind
of
tilted
at
an
angle
and
just
kind
of
dip
it
in
the
pain
I
mean
we
sell
a
ton
of
them,
people
that
use
them,
love
them
for
cedar,
shakes.
C
I'm,
the
Freak,
that's
just
never
I,
just
I,
guess
it's
just
as
they
say
it
must
be
in
the
wrist
or
whatever
cuz.
This
I
can
work
great
with
a
roller
and
a
brush
and
everything
I,
never
tape.
Anything
but
I
can't
get
those
paint
pads
to
work
for
me.
But
my
house
is
brick,
so
I've
never
had
a
cedar
shake
house
and
the
houses
that
I
had
when
I
was
younger,
that
were
wood,
we're
all
horizontal
clapboards.
So
it
was
just
a
brush.
C
C
The
cracks
that
are
kind
of
like
mud
check,
they
look
sort
of
alligator,
they
go
cross
ways
and
it
almost
looks
like
when
you
have
a
hard
rain
and
there's
a
puddle
of
mud
and
then
right
away,
the
Sun
comes
out
and
it
warms
up
and
then
the
mud
kind
of
cracks,
it's
called
mud,
checking.
That's
the
technical
term
for
it
named
after
what
happens
to
mod
after
a
rain.
Is
that
the
pattern
of
your
priming
yeah
and
it's
extremely
difficult
to
get
those
off
a
better
route
for
you
to
take?
C
We
have
a
thing
called
peel
ba
peel
bond.
I
think
it
is
it's
made
by
x.
Im,
your
young
bride
should
take
notes,
xim,
it's
either
peel
bond
or
peel,
stop
I,
can't
think
of
it.
I
think
it's
called
peel
bond.
You
put
two
coats
of
that
on
so
only
primer
where
they
want
to
have
two
coats
of
primer,
and
it
will
actually
it's
like
an
elastomeric
type
product
and
it
will
fill
in
that
and
give
you
a
level
surface.
You
put
two
coats
of
that
on
two
coats
of
paint.
C
It
look
like
you
replaced
all
the
woodwork
and
I
actually
thought
that
they
were
kind
of
because
paint
companies
from
time
to
time.
Well,
shall
we
say,
overstep
their
statements
on
their
can
and
make
it
sound
like
what
you're
buying
is
the
next
best
thing
since
sliced
bread
and
last
summer,
I
worked
with
steve
from
varsity
painters
on
a
good-sized
home
on
like
27th
and
Fremont
I
would
say,
was
floating
in
and
around
twelve
or
thirteen
thousand
square
feet
and
the
woodwork
looked
really
bad
on
the
outside,
but
it
was
very
ornate.
Very
detailed.
C
D
C
C
They
used
it
on
the
overhangs
on
the
fascia,
they
had
dentals
dentil
mouldings
and
all
the
window
casings,
and
it
looked
like
all
the
trim
on
this
one
hundred
and
thirty
year
old
house
had
been
replaced.
It
was
just
absolutely
amazing,
could
not
believe
it.
I
mean
I've
been
in
this
business
for
two
years,
and
it
takes
a
lot
for
me
to
go
up
to
a
house
of
make
my
jaw
drop
after
it's
done.
Okay,.
C
Any
other
question
you
think
I
will
get
into
color.
Okay,
since
we
got
a
small
group,
I
think
I'm
going
to
look
out
enough
literature
for
everybody
and
then
some
here,
I'm
on
a
committee
with
benjamin
moore
of
north
america,
where
they've
taken
designers
and
colourists
from
north
america
and
canada.
This
is
a
piece
that
we
put
together
a
little
over
a
year
ago.
C
We
meet
once
it
once
a
year
in
Manhattan
for
10
days,
I'm,
a
nice
expense
account
boohoo
I
want
you
guys
to
take
that
home
and
I
want
you
to
read
it
through.
It's
really
well
done
and
what
we
did
is
structured.
It's
so
bet
that
you
can
understand
the
importance
of
color
now
granted.
This
is
directed
inside,
but
the
same
same
rules
apply
outside.
C
What
happens
to
your
color
outside
is
that
you
buy
a
color,
you
try
it
you
get
it
up
on
the
house
on
the
outside
and
it's
going
to
look
so
much
lettering.
Oh,
it
doesn't
hate
him
like
the
chip,
okay.
Fortunately,
the
industry's
responded
by
coming
out
with
pint
samples.
Now
so
you
can
take
it
for
a
test
drive
before
you
buy
it.
F
C
C
The
other
thing
is
good
about
this
little
brochure
is
that
people
really
get
lost
when
it
comes
to
choosing
colors
and
how
to
tell
them,
and
if
you
remember
we're
all
I'd
say
within
ten
10
years
of
one
another
here.
If
you
remember
back
to
art
class,
we
were
all
taught
on
the
color
wheel.
Okay,
and
what
we've
done
over
here
on
the
on
the
right
is:
go
over
the
four
basic
color
schemes
that
people
are
going
to
use
and
these
again
their
interior
shots,
but
they
apply
to
the
outside
as
well.
B
C
The
vast
majority
I'll
just
just
ask
question
straight
out:
is
anybody
here
live
in
a
Victorian
home?
Okay,
so
that
we
know
have
to
worry
about
so
nobody
in
the
room
is
going
to
use
more
than
at
max
three
colors
on
their
house.
Okay
and
you
want,
if
you
want
to
follow,
what's
called
the
60
30-10
rule,
so
sixty
percent
is
obviously
going
to
be
the
body
of
the
house.
Thirty
percent
will
be
the
trim
and
then
you're
going
to
save
ten
percent
for
doing
your
accent.
C
C
So
this
is
this
talked
about
color
scheme.
Let's
finish
up
with
this
before
you
get
into
that,
and
then
it
talks
about
warm
colors
and
cool
colors
at
the
back.
So
I
want
you
to
take
this
home
and
read
it.
It's
really
good.
Now
this
is
a
brochure
that
I
personally
put
together
last
year
and
it
goes
over
what
I
call
my
my
top
10.
C
I
tell
customers
all
the
time
that
the
key
the
big
key
to
success
is
your
wanting
to
try
and
create
a
sense
of
harmony.
You
want
to
try
and
create
a
feeling
that
everything
belongs.
So,
let's
just
say,
for
example,
you've
got
a
gray
roof
and
you've
got
brown
or
buff-colored
brick
on
the
house.
You
know
you
want
to
work
with
those
colors
when
I'm
working
with,
say
a
beige
color,
brick
and
a
gray
roof
that
don't
maybe
necessarily
go
together.
C
So,
if
you're
in
your
mind,
you
kind
of
blended
those
two
colors
together,
the
color,
you
would
come
up
with,
because
what
you're
your
ultimate
objective,
when
your
color
scheming,
a
home,
is
to
come
up
with
a
sense
of
harmony
and
make
everything
feel
like
it.
Lawns
to
the
whole,
nothing
looks
worse
than
if
you
go
up
to
someone's
house.
They've
got
a
brown
roof
on
it,
white
trim
and
they
painted
the
house
yellow
and
they've
painted
their
front
door.
Green.
C
C
Do
it
about
ten
times
a
day
and
people
pay
me
two
hundred
dollars
an
hour
to
come
to
their
home
on
Saturdays
I,
do
three
homes
every
saturday
and
I'm
booked
about
a
month
out,
and
I'm
like
it's
like
falling
off
a
log
to
me
because
it's
like
okay
you've
got
to
work
with
what
you
call
your
fixed
assets,
which
are
generally
your
roof
color.
If
you
have
any
stone
work
on
the
house,
so
you've
got
to
work
with
your
fixed
assets.
C
You'll
want
to
incorporate
them
into
the
color
scheme,
you're
trying
to
create
a
sense
of
harmony.
It's
like
duh!
What's
tough
about
this,
you
know
I,
remember
his
a
little
toddler.
I
went
to
Mount,
Olivet,
church
and
I.
Remember
his
a
little
kid
after
church.
You
know
everybody
kind
of
would
hang
out
outside
the
church
and
there
was
a
house
that
you
can
see
from
the
parking
lot
model
of
a
church
that
was
painted
like
purple,
purple
and
I.
Remember
everybody
always
laughing
about
the
purple
house.
C
Hey
the
reason
I
bring
that
up.
Is
your
favorite
color,
my
little
sister's
favorite
colors
purple
she's,
not
using
it
on
the
outside
her
house,
she's
got
plenty
of
purple
on
the
inside,
but
you've
got
you've
got
to
remember
a
couple
of
things
number
one.
Does
anybody
here
know
what
the
number
one
thing
that
makes
or
breaks
the
sale
of
a
house
when
you
sell
a
house?
What's
the
number
one
thing
curb
appeal,
very
good,
not
very!
Very
seldom!
C
Number
ones
curb
appeal:
number
two's,
kitchen
number,
three's
bathrooms
number
for
lack
of
clutter,
I'm,
never
moving,
but
though
the
number
one
thing
is
curb
appeal
and
for
those
of
you
that
are
fortunate
enough
and
I
think
it's
a
very
fortunate
thing
that
you
have
control
over
the
color
scheme
on
your
home.
You
know
you
can
create
curb
appeal.
C
Perfect
example
of
this
is
a
beautiful
brick
home
in
my
neighborhood
and
I.
I
cannot
give
you
any
possible
reason
why?
But
for
some
reason,
the
people
had
painted
the
trim
on
this
beautiful
use,
brick
home
had
split,
cedar,
shake
roofs
and
they
had
painted
the
trim
on
a
taxicab,
yellow
I'm,
talking
the
yellow
that
they
use
on
yellow
cabs
and
the
house
would
sell
in
the
house,
one
cell
and
finally,
I
was
driving
by
one
day
and
I
was
like
okay.
C
D
C
Okay,
start
by
focusing
on
two
or
three
colors
I
know
a
lot
of
you
guys,
living
in
Bloomington,
probably
live
in
Ramblers
and
most
often
or
not,
most
often,
but
often
Ramblers
are
just
done
in
two
colors
and
that's
fine.
You
know
you're
not
dealing
with
a
tremendous
amount
of
height.
You
know,
there's
some
wisdom
to
the
fact
that
if
you
start,
if
you
use
three
colors
on
that
it
starts
to
get
a
little
chopped
up,
you
know
it's.
You
know
not
like
you're
dealing
with
something
like
that.
C
C
That's
the
body
of
the
house,
the
trim
color,
which
is
the
fascia,
the
windows,
the
overhangs,
no
more
to
toning
of
the
windows
like
they
did
in
the
40s,
where
you
know
we
had
storms
and
screens
that
you
take
off
and
those
were
one
color
and
you
know
you
might
have
cream-colored
trim
and
maroon
color,
storms
and
windows
that
you
would
put
on.
No,
it's
all
one
color
there
now,
okay
and
then
your
accent
color.
Typically,
your
accent,
color
is
done
on.
C
I'm
shudders
in
front
door.
I
know
these
homes
are
not
exactly
what
you're
going
to
find
around
here.
These
were
homes
I
lifted
off
of
Benjamin
Moore's.
They
have
a
dealer
website
thing
because
I
didn't
have
time
to
go
out
and
get
take.
Some
pictures
I
used
to
have
a
whole
bunch
of
wonderful
pictures
from
the
Twin
Cities
and
can't
find
them
anymore.
Guess
the
joys
of
getting
old
so
I
lifted
these
off
of
Benjamin
or
has
a
website
for
dealers
to
use
but
they're
in
East
Coast
company.
C
Okay,
number,
two
typically,
two
colors
are
used
on
a
single
story
house.
We
talked
about
that
because
a
lot
of
sim
Bloomington
are
going
to
have
Ramblers
three
colors
are
used
on
a
story
in
half
or
two
story
home
while
victorian-style
home,
which
no
one
has
here.
I
mean
I've
done
as
many
as
14
colors
on
a
Victorian
home.
C
Obviously,
not
applicable
to
anybody
here
remember
to
acknowledge
his
surf
surfaces
not
to
be
painted
in
your
color
scheme.
This
is
also
something
we
touch
does
such
as
roof,
brick
stucco.
You
know
you
should
select
colors
that
will
enhance
these
surfaces,
even
the
landscaping,
the
train
and
the
Train
can't
may
be
considered.
Okay,
people
kind
of
over
react
to
that
statement
and
they
think,
oh,
if
I've
got
a
brown
roof,
I
have
to
paint
my
house
brown.
Okay,
that's
not
what
I'm
saying
I'm
saying
somewhere
that
roof
color.
C
If
that's
your
only
fixed
asset
you're
dealing
with
somewhere
that
roof
colors
should
be
acknowledged
in
the
color
scheme.
It
can
be
a
much
lighter
shade
of
that
color
used
on
the
body.
It
can
be
a
darker
shade
of
that
color
used
on
the
shutters
of
the
front
door
doesn't
have
to
be
that
exact
color.
It
just
has
to
be
in
that
family.
C
Getting
back
to
my
example
of
you
know,
Yellow
House
white
trim
green
door
brown
rough.
It's
all
discombobulated,
there's
no
flow
going
on
simple
duplication.
I
always
tell
my
customers,
simple
duplication
is
usually
the
key
to
success.
To
a
well-thought-out
color
scheme
so
that
everything
kind
of
just
works
harmoniously
together:
okay,.
C
C
Oftentimes,
the
color
scheme
that
you
choose
on
the
home
is
really
about
the
only
way
that
you
can
set
your
house
apart
from
your
neighbors.
So
lesson
learned
here,
you
know:
don't
paint
your
house
the
exact
same
colors
as
your
neighbors
use
the
fact
that
you're,
you
have
control
over
your
colors
you're,
able
to
pick
the
colors
use
that
to
create
a
sense
of
individuality
so
that
your
house
looks
different
than
everybody
else's
when
I
have
co
and
I
have
customers
come
into
the
store
and
I
asked
them
to
take
a
picture
of
the
house.
C
Okay,
because
that's
where
we're
going
to
set
the
theme
of
the
house
we're
going
to
decide
on
the
colors
and
we're
going
to
then
obviously
carry
those
around
to
the
other
three
sides
of
the
home,
but
I
also
tell
them
when
they're
standing
in
front
of
the
house
taking
a
photograph
of
their
house
I
want
the
pan
to
the
right
and
pan
to
the
left,
so
that
I
can
get
a
feel
for
what
the
neighborhood
looks
like
what
I
call
the
streetscape
you
know.
So
that's
that's!
An
important
consideration.
C
Number
five
be
aware
of
the
roof.
Colors
homeowners
are
not
going
to
change
that
until
it's
necessary.
Don't
ignore
that
in
the
color
instead
acknowledge
it's
somewhere
in
your
color
scheme,
so
again
to
re-emphasize.
If
you
have
a
brown
roofer,
a
gray
roof
that
doesn't
mean
you
have
to
have
a
brown
house
or
a
gray
house.
It
just
means
that
somewhere,
those
colors
on
the
roof
should
be
acknowledged
in
that
color
scheme.
Okay,.
C
No,
you
can
you
can
incorporate
different
shades
or
intensities
of
the
roof
color.
You
can
acknowledge
the
roof
color
with
the
body.
You
can
acknowledge
the
roof
color
with
the
trim
or
you
can
acknowledge
the
roof
color
with
an
accent.
Color
I,
don't
care
what
color
you
choose
to
acknowledge
the
roof
color
and
you
could
paint
the
house
cream
and
have
brown
trim.
If
you
had
a
brown
roof,
you
could
paint
the
house
white
and
paint
the
trim
cream
and
paint
the
front
door.
C
Brown
I,
don't
care
whether
it's
with
the
body,
the
trim
or
an
accent
color
I'm.
Just
saying
one
of
those
three
avenues
means
to
acknowledge
the
roof.
Color.
That's
why
people
kind
of
freaked
out
when
I
say
knowledge,
those
fixed
assets
in
your
color
scheme
and
they're
like
oh,
but
I
got
a
gray
rough
I.
Don't
want
a
gray
house
I'm
like
no?
No,
no,
that's
not
what
I'm
saying
it
can
be
acknowledged
in
any
part
of
the
grouping
of
colors
you're
going
to
use.
C
Okay,
you
just
want
to
the
the
simplest
way
to
put
it
is
in
a
16
X
Inc
sentence.
Is
that
simple
duplication
of
fixed
assets
incorporated
somehow
into
that
color
scheme
are
going
to
give
you
a
pleasing
end
result?
Okay,
because
everything
is
going
to
flow.
Everything
is
going
to
feel
like
it
works
together.
C
Said
to
you,
for
example,
to
paint
your
house
that
color,
you
guys,
might
all
freak
out
and
think.
Oh
that's
going
to
be
really
really
dark.
Guess
what,
when
you
get
it
up
on
the
house?
It's
not
okay,
remember
that
light
really
affects
how
one
sees
color
and
the
when
you're,
looking
at
what
amounts
to
a
glorified
postage
stamp
of
the
color
as
opposed
to
30
or
40
feet
of
the
color
outside,
where
the
light
source
is
higher
and
the
actual
physical
space
is
bigger,
completely
different
thing.
C
Paint
companies
have
responded
to
consumers
by
allowing
you
to
buy
pints
of
paint
that
you
can
either
paint
on
tagboard
or
you
can
you
know
if
you,
the
Benjamin
Moore
I,
just
painted
on
tagboard
the
Hirsch
fields,
paint
I
would
actually
the
hirschfeld
comes
in
and
exterior
paints.
You
can
actually
put
it
on
its
they're,
still
kind
of
they've
cut
a
lot
of
corners
they've.
Let
left
out
a
lot
of
the
good
resins
they
are
just
designed
for
checking
color
they
should
be
painted
over.
C
C
C
So
at
that
time
you
had
to
buy
a
quart
of
paint
so
I.
You
know
we
didn't
see
eye
to
eye
I
on
the
collar
and
I
said
well,
fine
I
said
you
know,
try
the
yellow
that
you
think
you
like,
and
you
know
just
get
a
court
and
try.
It
paint
out
an
area
make
sure
you
like
it
before
you
have
the
whole
house
painted
well.
He
had
hired
one
of
these
companies
where
they
have
like
20,
guys
that
come
in
and
tape
everything
up
do
all
the
prep
work.
C
So
the
guy
calls
me
up
late
in
the
afternoon.
I
was
still
at
work.
He
calls
me
up
and
I'm
not
kidding.
He
was
crying.
He
goes.
I
have
come
home
to
a
giant,
flippin
banana
and
I'm.
Like
did
you
try
the
paint
color
before
you
pulled
the
trigger.
He
says:
yeah
I
had
the
painters
paint
a
little
piece
of
the
cold
molding
on
one
of
the
windows
I'm
like?
Are
you
going
to
tell
anything
from
that
use
up
the
can
of
paint?
C
You
can't
tell
on
the
you
know
what-
and
this
was
a
huge
house
out
in
eden
prairie.
You
can't
tell
what
it's
going
to
look
like
by
doing
a
little
area
like
that,
you
gotta
paint
a
good-sized
area
at
least
four
foot
square
before
you
can
accurately
judge
the
color.
Now,
anyway,
he
hired
the
painters
back
and
they
repainted
the
house.
C
She
couldn't
live
with
it,
but
I
mean
it
was
just
I
mean
it
was
funny,
but
it
wasn't
funny
because
I
mean
here's,
this
adult
man
that's
in
tears
because
he
had
pushed
himself
into
the
you
know,
making
a
snap
decision
I'm
sure
he
was
a
high-powered
executive
and
thought
that
he
perhaps
knew
more
than
you
know
holy
guy.
That
runs
a
paint
store.
C
C
C
That's
considered
part
of
your
trim,
yes,
and
if
there
are
powder
coated
gutters
that
our
factory
finished,
then
that's
going
to
require
a
special
primer
and
come
over
in
the
store
and
we'll
sell
you
the
correct
primer
to
get
that,
because
the
secret
in
painting
factory,
finished
gutters
is
in
getting
a
primer.
That's
going
to
really
stick
on
to
those
just
a
regular
house.
Paint
primer
is
not
going
to
do
a
good
job.
D
C
C
So
then
the
only
thing
is
clean
and
dry,
but
in
her
case,
because
her
factory
finished
gutters
had
never
been
painted
before
she's
got
to
get
a
good
foundation
that
will
accept
the
paint
and
gutters
are
kind
of
a
bugaboo,
because
you
know
you
get
ice
in
him.
You
got
the
swelling
and
contraction.
Everything
and
you
know
gutters
aren't
the
easiest
thing
to
keep
paint
on.
C
Ok,
all
right,
so
I,
even
yup,
yellows,
yellows
and
I.
Don't
know
why
I'm
gonna
put
pink
in
there,
but
yellows
and
pinks
are
the
two
colors
that
consistently
burn
people
they're
the
two
colors
that
advance
they
always
look
stronger
outside
than
they
do
on
the
chips
so
their
colors.
You
really
have
to
proceed
with
caution.
Well,
very
few
people
paint
their
houses
pink
anymore.
So
that's
guess
it
could
have
left
that
part
part
of
it
out.
Just
talked
about
yellows
number.
Seven
color
preferences
for
exteriors
are
going
like
than
they
once
were
gone.
C
C
C
The
color
has
been
put
in
a
spectrophotometer
and
measured
for
intensity
or
hue.
Whatever
word
value,
whatever
word
you
want
to
use
on
it,
they
all
mean
the
same
thing.
Ok,
so
the
color
has
been
measured
for
the
depth
of
the
color
and
a
lrv
or
light
reflective
values
been
assigned.
It
simply
put
think
of
zero.
Is
black?
C
100
is
white.
A
perfect
mid-tone
color
is
going
to
have
an
lrv
of
fifty
percent.
You
generally
want
to
use
a
mid-tone
color
on
the
body
of
your
house,
so
it's
important
that
you
work
with
that
light,
reflective
value
because
I
guarantee,
when
you're
sitting
down
at
your
dining
room
table
after
a
glass
of
wine
or
a
beer
and
you're
looking
at
a
color
and
the
color
you
decide
on
you
get
that
on
the
outside.
The
house
is
going
to
look
like
off-white.
C
C
F
C
Since
there's
a
number
of
you
and
I
brought
three
fan
decks
each
one
of
you
is
gonna
get
one,
so
you
can
take
that
home
and
play
with
it
all
you
want
and
pick
out
the
light,
reflective
value
of
any
color.
You
want
yep
yep,
it's
very,
very
easy
to
use
and
you'll
be
really
surprised
when
you
really
start.
C
If
I
didn't
tell
you
what
I
told
you
and
you
just
picked
a
concert
hall
I-
think
that
I'd
like
this
color
on
the
outside
of
my
house,
because
I
want
to
say
G,
green
color
and
I,
don't
want
it
real,
dark
and
oppressive.
Looking
so
I
think
I'd
like
this
color,
you
take
that
color
and
you
look
up
the
LRV
on
it
and
tell
me
if
it
comes
anywhere
close
to
a
mid-tone,
color
I
would
guess
it
probably
has
a
light
reflective
value
of
about
eighty
percent,
maybe
80
to
1
sides.
F
C
Okay,
so
anything
over
50
is
considered
a
pastel
color.
You
have
to
be
below
that
fifty
percent
mark
to
be
considered
a
mid-tone
color,
so
I
usually
tell
people
to
paint
the
bodies
of
their
home,
a
color
that
has
a
light
reflective
value
of
anywhere
from
thirty
to
fifty
percent
accent.
Colors
should
usually
be
fifteen
percent
or
less
usually,
when
I
use
an
accent
color.
It
has
an
LR
view
less
than
ten
percent.
C
Your
hubby
and
wife,
the
way
the
two
of
you
been
interacting
right,
so
you
get
a
fan
deck
and
you
get
your
very
own
fan
Derek,
so
everybody's
going
to
walk
away
with
the
door
prize
and
somebody's
going
to
get
well
right
now,
we'll
Tom!
Why
don't
you
draw
me
a
name
out
of
here
because
I
know
the
lady
in
the
front
row
wanted
to
leave
for
some
athletic
event.
Instead
of
my
wonderful
lecture
on
color
here
before.
A
C
Know
it's
going
to
sound
corny
like
it's
out
of
some
book,
but
it's
whatever
color
sings
to
you.
I
I
will
say
that
the
trend,
because
of
the
turbulent
times
we
live
in
and
the
uncertainty
that
we
all
have
about.
What's
going
on
with
the
world
and
what's
going
on
with
politics
and
this
and
that
the
next
thing
I
will
say
that
anything
that
reflects
back
to
nature
is
wildly
popular,
whether
it's
outside
or
inside,
as.
A
C
C
There
there's
real,
there's,
really
no
steadfast
rule
with
with
you
know,
I
mean
it's
going
to
vary
so
much
because
it's
going
to
be
driven
by
what
your
fixed
assets
are
in
the
house
and
truly
what
color
sings
to
you.
You
know
I
mean
you've
got
you
got
a
certain
amount,
don't
don't
worry
about
regarding.
A
C
F
C
C
So
remember
that
you're
trying
to
create
curb
appeal,
want
your
ultimate
return
on
your
dollar
and
you're,
also
painting
your
house
for
everybody
else,
but
you
so
that
favorite
color
of
yours
it
might
work
out
outside,
but
it
might
not.
You
might
end
up
having
to
paint
a
bathroom
or
a
bedroom
that
color
you
know,
painting
the
outside
of
your
house
Viking
purple,
probably
not
so
much
have
you
ever
been
out
to
Colonial
Williamsburg.
C
They
always
painted
the
front
doors,
a
bright
pop
color,
and
then
they
typically
would
stencil
pineapples
on
the
door
because
that's
like
the
International
welcome
thing,
and
so
you
always
want
this
is
a
blow-up
of
this
house,
but
you
always
want
to
draw
attention.
Sometimes
it's
done.
Architectural
II
naturally
sometimes
you're
going
to
do
it
through
color,
but
you
always
want
to
draw
attention
to
that
front
door.
That's
the
greeting
to
your
home.
C
C
The
garage
doors,
if
they're
visible
from
the
front
of
the
home,
need
to
be
painted
the
color
of
the
body
of
the
home.
Think
of
them
as
movable
siding,
think
of
the
garage
doors,
is
movable
siding.
So
if
they're
visible
from
the
front
of
the
home
paint
them
the
color
of
the
body
of
the
house,
you
can
picture
frame
them
in
as
they
did
in
this
picture.
You
can
picture
frame
them
in
the
trim
color,
but
the
doors
themselves
should
be
painted
the
color
of
the
body.
C
C
You
know
all
these
fancy
detectives
a
very
loyal
long-term
customer
of
mine
that
lives
in
Edina
and
he
happens
to
fly
for
abused,
to
fly
for
Dell
for
Northwest
now
Delta,
but
he's
a
wide-body
pilot
and
he's
got
a
beautiful
wood
contemporary
a
framed
home
and
he
bought
a
photo
mural
of
747
landing
blacktop
driveway.
He
cut
the
mural
horizontally
and
pieced
it
in.
So
it's
on
his
garage
door
and
he
literally
looks
like
the
747
is
landing
on
his
driveway.
C
C
You
know
when
people
come
and
visit
you
in
the
home.
You
don't
turn
to
your
husband
and
go
honey,
I'm
going
to
go
open
the
garage
door
and
let
our
guests
in
you
want
them
to
be
drawn
to
the
front
door
of
your
home.
You
can
do
it
with
color.
You
can
do
it
with
potted
flowers.
You
can
do
it
with
Reese.
You
can
do
it
with
the
little
greenery
that
they
stick
in
the
pots
in
the
wintertime.
But
you
want
to
do
everything
you
can
to
make
the
front
door.
The
welcoming
to
your
home.
D
C
My
opinion,
absolutely
absolutely
a
mistake:
rips
my
heart
out
when
I
see
people
that
you
know
if
you've
got
your
garage
doors
on
the
side
of
your
home
or
in
the
back
of
your
home,
or
something
like
that.
That's
a
whole
different
conversation,
but
it
rips
my
heart
out.
When
people
spend
thousands
of
dollars
for
these
beautiful
garage
doors,
then
they
have
a
contractor
come
in
and
put
this
sickens
makes
a
specialty
product.
C
It
almost
ends
up
with
your
garage
doors,
looking
like
they're
varnished,
and
they
spend
all
this
money
to
have
them
finished
and
they
at
this
beautiful,
three-car
garage.
You
know
on
their
lovely
McMansion
and
the
garage
doors
are
visible
from
the
front.
You
walk
by
the
house
and
all
you
do
is
look
at
the
garages
and
I'm
like
that's,
not
the
focal
point
of
your
home.
C
C
Soft
contrast,
we
kind
of
went
over
that
use
color
to
create
individual
eyetality.
That
goes
back
to
where
we're
talking
about
the
streetscape
and
everything.
That's
so
often,
you
know
don't
paint
your
house
same
colors
your
neighbors
and
take
paint
for
a
test
drive
before
you
go
and
use
it
pretty
much
covered
question.
C
C
C
What
I
do
tell
people
to
do
is
skip
a
color
in
between,
so
you
can
use
this
this
and
this
you
can
use
this
this
and
this,
but
if
you
use
two
of
your
colors
that
are
right
next
to
each
other,
if
you're
doing
a
monochromatic
color
scheme
you're
going
to
end
up
with
the
colors
with
with
looking
like,
there's
no
contrast,
so
you
need
to
app.
You
can
skip
more
than
one
if
you
want,
but
at
minimum
skip
one.
C
C
All
paint
companies
all
paint
companies
put
their
best
foot
forward
the
10
days
before
Memorial
Day
weekend,
because
that's
the
people
that
are
proactive
that
are
painting
then,
which
is
probably
when
you
went
over
to
sherwin
williams
and
then
again
the
10
days
before
Labor
Day
weekend,
which
is
when
all
the
procrastinators
are
getting.
It
done
because,
of
course,
the
day
after
labor
day
is
going
to
have
a
blizzard.
C
Always
sherwin-williams
sears
home
depot,
Hirsch
fields,
everybody
we're
all
on
the
same
page,
one
of
the
few
common
denominators
in
our
industry.
It's
just
because
it's
simple
the
proactive
people
that
want
to
get
it
out
of
the
way
check
it
off
their
to-do
list
and
enjoy
the
summer
and
the
people
that
are
like.
Oh
any
minute
now,
I'm
going
to
have
to
get
out.
My
snowblower,
which
I'm
like
October,
is
the
best
month
there
is
for
painting
after
the
first
hard
freeze
bugs
are
gone.
It's
not
real
hot,
so
the
paint
doesn't
cook
on.
C
You
can
just
paste
it
off
if
you
want
ok,
so
the
perimeter
of
the
house
times
the
median
height,
ok,
/,
350,
I'm,
sorry
perimeter
of
the
house
times
the
median
height
take
off
ten
percent
for
doors
and
windows,
/
350.
That
gives
you
the
number
of
gallons
for
one
coat
so
distance
around
the
house
times
your
height
less
ten
percent,
that's
for
doors
and
windows.
C
C
C
Not
making
a
social
statement,
but
the
one
guy
recommend
hires
all
Russian
people,
which
is
my
heritage,
and
this
gentleman
that
I
gave
you
it
was
the
other
guy
I
always
recommend
hires
Mexican
people,
and
these
guys
just
did
a
lot
of
work
on
my
houses.
Last
summer,
cuz,
my
60th
birthday
is
coming
up.
This
fall
and
I
got
people
coming
in
from
all
over
the
country
for
it,
and
I
wanted
everything
just
perfect
and
I
had
being
in
the
business
procrastinated
a
few
things:
italia,
the
russian
immigrants
and
the
people
from
mexico.
C
They
work
their
tails
off
and
I've
seen
other
painters
around
that
are
just
like.
Oh
maybe
I'll
get
to
this.
Maybe
I'll
get
to
that.
We're
not
going
to
get
political
here,
but
there's
a
I
was
just
watching
the
news
the
other
day
and
they
had
a
big
piece
about
how
the
work
ethics
have
just
gone
down
and
down
and
down
and
down.
C
D
C
Would
say:
that's
not
necessary
anymore,
unless
you
know
if
it
was
extremely
inexpensive
paint
and
you
could
just
take
a
white
paper
towel
and
like
wipe
off
the
paint
type
thing,
then
it
would
be
appropriate
to
seal
it
in
if
it's
a
decent
quality
paint.
You
know
two
coats
of
paint
should
get
you
through
the
day.
