Re: Shutters

Spray obviously.....brushing takes quite a while, but it all depends on the situation. In a furnished, occupied home, or not yet installed?

Re: Shutters

I don't have a problem painting those with a brush
But it wouldn't take many for me to want to spray them
If there's a few, I'd consider removing them to a spray booth and spraying
