In this episode of the Repcolite Home Improvement Show, sponsored by Benjamin Moore, host Dan Hansen shares personal stories and practical advice. He kicks off the show talking about the cold weather challenges with his dogs, Maggie and Fern, particularly Fern's outdoor bathroom behavior.
Hansen then dives into an in-depth guide on the importance of sanding primer before painting.
The episode continues with a quirky overview of Benjamin Moore's Color of the Year for 2025, Cinnamon Slate, presented as a dating profile.
The show then explores the history of caulk and caulking, tracing its origins from ancient shipbuilding to modern home construction, and concludes with a review of a $30 dog-monitoring camera, the Wyze Cam OG, that Dan finds invaluable for keeping an eye on his mischievous dog, Fern.
