Welcome to
Gable's End Barn Quilts
All of our quilts are painted on 3/4" MDO plywood,
which is made specifically for outdoor
signage. Our process involves priming
the plywood (both front and back)
with 2 coats of oil based exterior
primer. We are sure to paint all edges
of the plywood when applying the 2
coats, thus giving all edges 4 coats of
primer. When we begin painting colors
- again with oil base, high gloss,
exterior paint - again we are sure to
bring the colors around the edges (and
each color receives 2-3 coats), leaving
all edges with at least 6-7 coats of a
primer/paint combination, to stand
up to years of sun, rain and snow.
