paint
Paint is something people often overlook from a quality standpoint, and I can tell you not all paints are created equal. Not to get too nerdy here, but the color science that Benjamin Moore puts into their paints is absolutely incredible. I had the pleasure of working in their booth at KBIS 2020, and I was blown away by how much goes into these products. I have always know these guys as a quality product, but now I understand why that is. The below products are what I used on the stone house.
