The Floor Disaster ... Still on Going

Then there is the disaster of the floor colour.
First there was grey, which is the standard premixed colour. I think it is meant to look like cement. It was livable but quite boring. So I thought I would improve on it.

I wanted barn-red, and this is what it ended as .... pink!!!
I am in the process of choosing the next, and hopefully last colour.

Years ago (before we were together), Susan had a similar experience. She and her dad (an auto mechanic) repainted her VW bug. The intended outcome was red, but the base color and the additive separated resulting in -- you guessed it -- pink. She never got around to repainting it. She was driving that pink VW when we first met.

Pink VW, wow!!!
Pink is a hard colour to like when you were aiming for red...so close but yet SO far.
The floor has slipped right back to the end of the list of things to do and somehow I don't even notice it anymore. I don't know what I will do, painting the rest of the floor (another 4 gallons I figure, only 1 gallon done) does seem like too much but at roughly $45 a gallon it is something to consider.
