Sherwin-Williams Pro Industrial Waterbased Alkyd Urethane Enamel
semi-gloss · handrails and exterior metal doors
Purple Painting painted the new Center for Jewish Learning and the sanctuary building at Congregation B'nai B'rith in Santa Barbara, for the general contractor Schipper Construction. Indoors we primed and painted the gypsum board walls and ceilings, from white classrooms and offices to accent walls in teal, blue, orange and green, and painted the doors and door frames.
Outside, the scope covered the plaster walls, roof fascia, steel columns, downspouts, mechanical louvers, handrails and decorative metal fins, and the site package added the steel railing frames at the arrival courtyard and the promenade entry. The handrails and exterior metal doors were finished in semi-gloss.
How we did it

All new drywall in the Center for Jewish Learning and the sanctuary building was primed, with the primer tinted to match the finish coat.
-
Paint the walls and ceilings
Walls and ceilings were painted in the approved colour schedule, in eggshell on walls and flat on ceilings.
