Third coat

I think it’s day 3 on the gate, it’s been quite hard work work. I think the fact that sometimes we are up a ladder, sanding or painting in a precarious and tense position is why our muscles are feeling the strain.

However, we’ve sanded the first coat where there are a few blemishes and I’m painting on the second coat.

A few hours later and the third and final coat is now going on, we are both really pleased with the result. We just need to finish the fiddly top bars, then it will be done.

It really does look so much better.
