    The way the windows have reflected your neighbours houses and driveways makes this look like a painting.

        For a moment, I was judging your choice to paint a bright blue line around each window. I thought it was trim 🤣. Anyways, looks awesome! I’d love to see it a photo with the tape removed!

          A brush might have been the better choice. Could have saved those coats 😛

              Dulux Weathershield. I skimped on the preparation, which is why it doesn't look as good as it could do. I only sanded using 80 and didn't bother with primer.

                Looks like it finished very nicely!

                  I don't bother taping around window panes like that because I find that I can scrape the paint off the glass with a razor scraper pretty much just as fast.

                  (I suppose it might depend on the pane size, since positioning pieces of tape gets more efficient as the length of the pieces gets longer. A big window is probably worth taping off.)

                  Whoever painted my house before I lived in it clearly thought that too, half my windows have scratches and gouges in them the rest I had to clean myself with acetone.
