Today's Painting Update

Aloha Kakou:

Painting continues on the "point" of J building with both the first and second floors under way. Of course, the masking is ongoing, with the painting directly behind it, but progress can be seen.

J Masking Continues

Aloha Kakou:

Painters continue to mask the end of J building, now working on the second floor railings since the floors have been completely masked on the first level.

Beginning J Building

Aloha Kakou:

The painters got underway with masking on J building today as they began by masking the hallway and lanai floors. Some of the prep work on the stairway railings and the spalling was begun last week. This week, the plan is to paint up to 109/209.

H Is Done

Aloha Kakou:

The painters finished the bulk of H building today. All that is left to do is the small touch-up and detail work.

AOAO Maintenance worked on sealing the futurastone in G building as you can see by their yellow tape and sticks!

H Building Continued

Aloha Kakou:

With almost all of the masking removed, handrails and trim were on the painters' agendas today as they worked to finish up H building. They also worked on the eave fascia. It looks as though they'll be done on time, with plans to powerwash the first phase of J building on Wednesday.

Done For The Week

Aloha Kakou:

The painters have unmasked a good deal of H building, meaning that most of the spray painting is finished on both floors. They still have to paint the eave fascia and the dark brown doors and handrails, which they will do next week. The plan is to be finished in H by Wednesday and then on to the first phase of J the following Monday.

Update On H

Aloha Kakou:

Even though the H building is scheduled to be out of service until next Wednesday, the painters look as though they've done quite a bit of the first floor's light brown body color and medium brown on the columns.

H Building Underway

Aloha Kakou:

With the masking completed, the painters today worked on spraying the first floor body color. They've completed the hallway area and the south side of the building.

H Building's Coming Along

Aloha Kakou:

The painters worked at finishing up the floor and lanai railing masking today. Additionally, they are prepping the eaves for painting.

Wednesday's Work

Aloha Kakou:

The painters got a head start on H building today. They worked on sanding and prepping the hand railings prior to painting. They also started on repair of the minor spalling, this time prior to painting.

Painting & Walkway Progress

Aloha Kakou:

Following their rush to finish G building last week, the painters now find themselves working on small projects around the property prior to starting on the H building. There are numerous small spalling projects as well as some touch up areas that are keeping them busy this week. AOAO maintenance personnel are continuing their piecemeal work on the Futurastone walkway sealing. You never know where they'll be working but they are easily tracked by the smell of the sealer - whew! Thank goodness it dries quickly!

Lucky G Building Owners

Aloha Kakou:

The painting of G building was scheduled to take two weeks, but it seems no one told the painters! They finished up the brush work today, about a week ahead of schedule. While the painters wanted to move on to H building, they will instead next week be working on some handrails in H & J buildings (ahead of schedule) and touching up in buildings where the majority of the painting has been completed.
