2. 0:02the way they're most commonly used it

4. 0:06walking through renovated properties for
5. 0:0810 years with 80% of them using gray
6. 0:11paint only gray walls are like mullets
7. 0:14no one likes them people just get them
8. 0:16because other people have them ask
9. 0:18someone who renovated their home with
10. 0:20gray paint what the interior style of
11. 0:22their home now is they'll say modern I
12. 0:25want you to look back at them like a
