When we set out to paint a room in our home there are a few things we need, first the walls have to be in decent shape and second we need a good quality paint and tools to apply the paint. Thanks to the HGTV Home line from Sherwin Williams choosing the paint is a no-brainer. When we built our home 6 years ago we painted the majority of the rooms using Sherwin Williams paint so we have always been a fan. Over the last 6 years the paint in our kitchen has grown tired and I am over the green color so when we were given the opportunity to try out the HGTV Home line along with some great products from Purdy we jumped at the chance.
Our choice of paint was HGTV Sherwin Williams Showcase in Watery, the Showcase line is paint and primer in one and is stain resistant. My husband always handle the rolling and I handle the cutting in so first up to try was the Purdy Revolution Frame which can be used with the Purdy Power Lock Extension Pole with the Golden Eagle Rollers. Our old roller frame was a traditional one with metal wire, this is the first time that we have seen one with the plastic frame that the roller fits over. With our previous roller my husband had been experiencing issues with it applying evenly, when he was using it, it felt like there was a flat spot on the roller which also meant it did not cover very well.
Since this Purdy Revolution Frame does not have the traditional metal wire it will not collapse over time from pressing the roller on and off so it rolls smoothly and applies the paint smoothly as well. Speaking of smooth, these Golden Eagle Rollers are amazing. These roller covers are designed to be used on smooth to rough surfaces and latex or oil based paints. My husband loved how much these rollers absorbed the paint, the amount of area he could cover between having to reload the roller was excellent which saved his back from having to bend over very often. The White Dove Roller Covers we received were used to paint our hallway and while they are a good roller as well, they left a great finish on the wall and covered evenly although they just do not hold the paint as well as the Golden Eagle.
For cutting in I used the provided Purdy Clearcut Brushes, the Dale is a 1 1/2″ and the Sprig is a 3″ flat trim brush. I loved the angle of the Clearcut Dale brush, it allowed me to get right into the angle of where the wall meets the ceiling and make a nice clean line without getting paint on the ceiling. This brush was also excellent for painting above the baseboard trim and provided a nice, clean line.
I think the project turned out very well. As always the Sherwin Williams paint went on nice and smooth, covering well and the Showcase line is a paint and primer all in one and has excellent stain resistance so it will look great for years to come. The HGTV Home line is available in 16 different color collections so you are sure to find one you will love. Both the HGTV Home by Sherwin Williams Paint and Purdy Professional Painting Tools are available at Lowe’s and other retailers nationwide.
