Crime Scene

I decided to stain the beadboard in my kitchen. Instead of the natural wood color, I've decided to use a red stain. My trip to pick up the stain began at 8:30 pm on Friday. I spent some time with the Home Depot paint department, and they color matched the stain to the red in my living room. They packed my quart of stain in a thin plastic bag along with a couple cans of spray insulation, paintbrushes, etc. I pulled into my garage, parked the car, exited the vehicle and just as I picked the bag up the bottom fell out and the stain hit the floor forcing the lid open. My concrete was covered with a huge red puddle of stain. For the next hour I was spraying red water down my driveway and scrubbing my floor in red stained clothing. My neighbors haven't talked with me since.




Home Depot did replace my stain free of charge, and even gave me rags and some cleaning solvents to remove the red tint from my garage. I give them an A+ for customer service. Sorry, Lowes, you still lose.
