Strippin'! [part II]

so we've been continuing to strip those old doors!   even though we found out that stripping old lead-paint doors in DC can only be done AFTER you've taken the safety course or something...ummm yeah.  we'll sign up for the next one.

since the last post, we've switched the stripping chemical we're using from a harsh nasty chemical that made you high off its' fumes to a more serene concoction that smells like an orange grove.  It actually works MUCH better and faster.

we're about 85% done now with these doors.  we just need to finish filling the divots with putty and then sand it down smooth.  the crew will then paint the doors.  we'll also want to get some of that old school hardware for the doors if we can find it for a decent price.

all in all...the best time i NEVER want to have again
