After reading my Consumer Reports, I bought some highly rated Behr paint and painted my bedroom. It never dried. The walls stayed tacky, and still are after several months. Then a new version of Consumer Reports came out and said Behr reformulated. Sooo…I vowed not to use it again, but whaddyaknow I had to paint the hallway. This time the paint was like chalk after it dried. I pretty much figured I’d forgotten how to paint. I used to paint several times a year, but it had been awhile. Soo…I headed over to Sherwin Williams and bought a $ 40 can of paint. Seemed kinda pricey but holy cow what a difference. Only needed one coat and it went on so smooth. The difference was night and day. I also picked up a new paint roller and brushes, the prices on the tools were cheaper then Home Stupid Depot and much better quality. Recently, I had to paint again, and they had paint on sale. The staff was knowledgeable about what primer to put over the previous application and what paint would be best for a top coat. Now, you won’t be able to buy a washing machine at the same time, but isn’t that the point? Buying paint from a paint store… friggin ingenious.
