The other day while in the paint store I was talking to my paint guy.
Yes, I have a paint guy... my home away from home is the paint store.

the 60+ year old finish is leaving... |
Paint guy convinced me that I needed to use a different primer than what I normally stock up on...
|
not a paid advertisement... LOL! |
I don't like it.
At all. It dries
WAY tooooooo fast. I started at the back of my couch arm and by the time I went back to correct my brush stroke (
meaning... seconds later...) it was already halfway dry -
meaning... I have more brush strokes showing with EDGES than I've ever had in my painting life. And, it almost has a chalky vibe to it which left me with my eyebrow raised.
Maybe for a project that is straight across and flat,
that doesn't have some turned spindles and round legs... maybe.
This week-end is couch painting week-end
(after I sand it down and go back to my tried-n-true primer (Kilz)), puppy sitting week-end
(don't you need one of the most-darling-little-puppies-that-ever-was?), and generally cleaning up. Oh - and I started on my kitchen cabinets last night too -
think.... stainless steel appliance paint.
*big cheesy grin goes here*
