Paul Henson YMCA – Exterior Painting Project

Project: This project was for the exterior of the Pan Henson YMCA in Prairie Village, KS. The facility is known in the area for its indoor pool and gym used by the local community.

Upon our initial inspection, we found the original paint was faded and peeling badly in several areas, the building was due for an exterior painting project.

Process: Our commercial painter’s initial prep work involved scraping all the loose and peeling paint off the building, and power washing all of the surfaces that would be painted. Once the surfaces were dry from the power washing a coat of primer was applied to the bare areas of the exterior.

The color selected for the exterior was a bright blue that gives the building a stand-out look from the road. The light blue shade took several coats of paint to get a bright and clean appearance. We also had to be mindful while painting the front entry way, we coordinated with facility mangers to make sure the business could remain open while the project was being done.
