Painting

[thrasher]

I hate painting outside. I will not do it. I hire it out each time.

I'll do indoors, but don't care for it much either.

I painted the outside of my last house. Sucked. Was neglected, paint was hanging off in 5' ribbons. So then you start scraping, how far do you go?

I did, and even more then I planned. Was just gonna do the the spots that showed the old color. But once I got going, I kept on going. Of course, I wasn't ready, and everything was just shoved in the way.

I did a 1/2 ass job with roller, but I am hoping it looks less half ass then before. Just applying another coat.

Thinking about doing a color in my FR, but then light colors are so easy to paint overand harder to tell if you missed. Not to mention it would take months to pick a color.

I come from painting people. Gallon of paint was out remodel. Simple folk. Everything looks all shiny and new. I am full of hope and change now.

I found that if I buy Kilz primer and have it tinted, it covers dark paint real well with just 1 coat.

Touched up the bathroom, and bought a towel rack. I am on a roll. Doing the bathroom in chrome.

Chrome walls seem like a waste of money to me. I guess your paint was bad after all...

Put up a towel bar and one of those rings. Just need some of those fancy matching towels now. People are gonna wonder if I have a boyfriend.

I had a crushing defeat, earlier, which I will post later, askign council.

Leaded paint covers best...

And tastes so good.
