phobia can correct me if I am wrong.
But on new drywall make sure you get the PVA primer that seals so that you do not see your joints.

The old paint can be used for primer, but you'll need to make sure it's not broken down. The only way to check is to taste the paint. If its broken down it won't leave a stain on your tongue. If it does leave a stain it should be OK to use. I hope this helps.

If it is left over and not going to use leave the lid open and let it dry and then toss it in the garbage when it drys out.

Watching bugeater and halfcan meet in this thread reminds me of the times you're playing the card game "war" and you're just cruising right along trading mid level cards when all of the sudden you both pull KINGS.

BTW-I started my business with a paint brush and roller-and when I left (because of my kids) I had upwards of 10 employees and more business than I could handle. I NEVER had to come back to a house I painted and fix shit. I have went through thousands of gallons of paint-so I DO know a bit about painting. But I guess Your opinion is better than Anybodies else-and if someone disagrees with you-they don't know Shit. |

OK a minor health setback prevented me from tackling this painting job until this past weekened. I had all my paint and purchased an air gun from Wal-Mart. It started out OK but turned into a semi disaster in short order. The paint guy had me pick up my air spray gun from their automotive dept. It started clogging up after initially working well. I think the viscocity for automotive paint is a lot less than for house paint (even after the recommended thinning the house paint). I returned the gun and now am looking for a suitable spray gun for my air compressor. Any ideas about were to go for a good deal and how much I should expect to pay? Any help is really appreciated. This is a good weather week and I don't wanna miss out on it.
