Choosing finishes should be simple… but it never is. In this episode of Caution Ahead, Scott and Angie break down why picking paint and fixtures turns into tension between budget, taste, and reality. Along the way, Angie drops a few “did you know?” moments that might change how you look at finishes altogether. From paint regret and crazy Pinterest ideas to contractor insights on what actually lasts, they share real stories, hard-earned lessons, and a practical framework to help couples choose finishes without losing their minds—or their relationship. If you’re remodeling, building, or arguing over paint samples, this one’s for you.
