Cabinets can be especially difficult as the different grains in the wood and the frames themselves can make the brush marks stand out.

You can dramatically change a bathroom by going from brushed nickel to oil rubbed bronze or like the picture in your example, gold to any other finish easily later on.Some ideas I personally have done and love:Heated floors.  

So far we've taken all the wood off the top (underside) of the porch and replaced it with tongue and grove pine and replaced the single ugly exterior light with 3 brushed steel pot lights attached to a dimmer.

I know a lot of accountants that can't use a tooth brush, let alone a paint brush.

(check comps, expectations for area first, i'm up north snow area....)bathrooms, get rid of anything gold. chrome/brushed steel/nickel... maybe modern but you want serene/calm/spa. choose paint color wise.kitchen: there seems to be a mix of black can painted plastic and metal pulls. how are the cabinets?

Hopefully you've been brushing up on learning MFRs via BP blogs and such, right?!

It even covered up an edge where the formica had chipped off and all that was remaining was the wood.The kit includes (in order of use): Cleaner, Cleaning brush, adhesive bottom color coat, flake spreader (looks like a mini lawn seed spreader), flakes, sanding block, and two part epoxy protective top coat.

I have a Pfister "brushed nickel" vanity light in my own bath that has rusted out, they just couldn't be bothered to put a thick enough plate on it.

I always prefer spraying over brushing to avoid adding any roller or brush marks if possible.  

Patrick, go to Autozone on Jackson Ave with a paint brush in your hand or find the guy with paint on their clothes.
