Uncle Sam

Uncle Sam is a pure bright white and it’s the perfect white when mixing your own custom colors or beautiful all by its self!

Uncle Sam was created to accompany any shade of color as well as be the star of show.  Our paintriot’s have been busy painting beautiful pieces with Uncle Sam, and we share a few to inspire and uplift you!

Farmer’s Daughter painted a dark outdated chair using Sackcloth, Uncle Sam and Surfboard. The caned sides were painted with Uncle Sam, the legs and surround were painted with Sackcloth and all upholstery was painted with Surfboard, a nice beachy shade of blue. Two coats of full strength paint was used overall with a light sanding to soften the upholstery. Top Coat was used for the upholstery finish and wax for the chair’s structure.

Beautiful wouldn’t you agree!

Funked Up - Uncle Sam

Funked UP in Pincher Creek, AB, painted a small table with APC’s Born on the 4th as the base coat and Uncle Sam as a second color over top.  The table was heavily distressed and clear wax was used to finish all of this shabby goodness!
