Front Porch Painting

The front porch railing and post were in need of some paint. The paint was peeling off in quite a few spots. The corner rounds on the post also were becoming unattached. We ended up buying two new pieces. I did a whole bunch of pressure washing and a bit of light sanding and then a final rinse. Then a few days later once it was completely dry, I painted.

These are a couple of photos of the post on the front porch. 
It was getting very weathered and needed a paint touch up. 

I didn't want to bother trying to match the paint that was on the post so I decided to paint it white to match the railings. I got 2 coats on all the railings and the post in one day. It wasn't too hot, but there was quite the breeze to help the drying process.

All done and looking much better!
