I just watched the video of the steam paint removal on the door jamb of the
barn. The paint is completely removed & then John says that the next step is
to prime & paint.
What about a 1st layer of boiled linseed oil/turpentine? I've been advised
by Duffy & the guys at Fine Paints of Europe and others that on old dried up
wood like this there needs to be that 1st layer otherwise the oil in the
prime is just sucked out and there is no adhesion.
