Project Spotlight: Wood Staining and Restoration for Mr. & Mrs. Ebert in Eagle, Idaho
January 1, 2024
We recently had the opportunity to work with Mr. and Mrs. Ebert in Eagle, Idaho, who reached out to us with a common problem—sun-faded, scratched, and weathered wood. Their wood front door and the surrounding window frames had suffered from years of exposure to the sun and their dog’s playful antics. They needed a solution that would restore the beauty of their wood while also providing protection from the elements. Spray 'n Coat Painting was happy to help!
Here’s What We Did:
- Prepped the Wood: We began by lightly sanding the surfaces to remove dirt and the old finish. This gave us a clean canvas for applying the stain and finish.
- Custom Stain Matching: The existing stain had some inconsistencies, so we carefully mixed a custom stain to match the natural wood tone and improve the overall look.
- Applied UV-Stable Exterior Clear Finish: To ensure the door and window frames stay protected for years to come, we finished the wood with a UV-stable exterior clear finish. This helps prevent sun and moisture damage, keeping the wood looking fresh and vibrant.
The Impact:
With the custom stain and protective finish, Mr. and Mrs. Ebert now have a beautifully restored front door and window frames that are easier to maintain and more resilient against the harsh Idaho sun. Not only did the work enhance the curb appeal of their home, but it also provides lasting protection, so they can enjoy their front entryway without worrying about fading or weathering.

At Spray ’n Coat Painting, we often get called in to finish what others couldn’t quite get right—and that was the case with this 2,000 sq. ft. concrete floor coating project at the Caldwell Airport terminal. The building, now home to a private charter company, needed a durable and clean finish to make the space more welcoming for employees and travelers. Project Background This terminal originally had carpet in several areas, and after it was removed, thick glue residue was left behind across the concrete floors. Our customer had hired another contractor to handle the coating work, but unfortunately, they lacked the necessary equipment and experience for the job. That’s when we stepped in to get things done right. Our Process To give the customer the clean, sealed finish he was hoping for, our crew tackled the job in several key steps: Joint Filler Replacement: We started by removing the old joint filler and refilling the seams. Heavy Grinding & Surface Prep: Using professional grinding equipment, we stripped away all glue residue and opened up the pores of the concrete to ensure a strong bond. Matte Polyurethane Coating: We applied a commercial-grade polyurethane sealer in a matte finish. This not only improved the look of the space but also provided a stain-resistant, slip-resistant surface that can stand up to heavy foot traffic. Why It Matters For a commercial space like this—where first impressions matter and safety is non-negotiable—the right prep and coating system makes all the difference. The finished floor is now sealed, low-maintenance, and ready to take on day-to-day traffic from both staff and customers.

Painting your island a different color is one of the easiest ways to add contrast, personality, and value to your kitchen—see how it worked in this Boise home. Not every kitchen upgrade requires a full remodel. Sometimes, one bold, well-executed change can make the biggest impact. That was the case with this recent kitchen island makeover, where our customer wanted one thing: to make their island the statement piece of the space. They chose Dried Thyme by Sherwin-Williams—a soft, earthy green that brings both character and calm to a room. We used our cabinet painting process to deliver a durable, factory-grade finish that gave their island a whole new identity. Here’s how it came together—and why cabinet painting is one of the smartest updates you can make in your kitchen. Why the Island? Why Dried Thyme? This homeowner wasn’t trying to overhaul their entire kitchen. Their layout worked well, the surrounding white cabinetry was in great shape, and their countertops already brought a clean, timeless look. But the island felt flat. It blended in too much—and they wanted something with a little more presence. Enter Dried Thyme (SW 6186) . This sage-toned green shifts beautifully with the light throughout the day, creating a cozy yet elevated look. It paired perfectly with their existing white perimeter cabinets, quartz counters, and the updated matte black hardware. Looking for more island color inspiration? Sherwin-Williams has a great visualizer tool for testing colors in real spaces.
