HSF’s next Preservation Brown Bag

Friday, March 5

Noon

Smith Center for History & Art, 2^nd floor community room

Alitia Cross from Benjamin Moore Paints

will present

Paint 201: Practical Solutions and Problem-solving technique

Classification of paints
Factors affecting curing
Comparisons between latex and alkyd coatings
Surface preparation and priming techniques
Causes and solutions for common paint problems

A great class for the do-it-yourselfers! At some point, whether it’s for the winter indoor project or summer outdoor project, we all have a brush in our hands. The line up of paints have changed. New technologies are bringing non-toxic paints and better products for our homes. This is a good crash course on what’s out there, how it compares to what we’re familiar with, and how to use them.

The presentation is free and open to the public. And it’s casual; bring your lunch if you want.
