Indoor paint reviews - Walmart paint ?
Walmart paint versus home depot and lowes which offers more coverage.
I plan to buy paint from Walmart to paint my house. Have a bunch of questions before I do since I've never painted before.
Is Sherwin Williams really worth the price over Behr for my home interior wall paint?
Behr routinely is #1 in the only independent testing I know of [Consumer Reports]
Paint stores stay in business by giving large quantity discounts to Pro painters [based on volume]. Your painters are likely not paying $58-70 for SW
More on reddit.comI have really only used behr and sherwin williams paint before but in a small town and Walmart is the nearest option. Has anyone used Walmart paint recently I couldn’t find any reviews I trusted online?
Or I might just suck it up and take the longer driver for higher quality options.
Ty in advance.
We've removed all the wallpaper. There was tons. Also we tried various techniques for the popcorn ceiling from spraying hot water and scraping, using vinegar, trying citristriop, and using a pole sander. Since the drywall was torn a bit from trying to remove the popcorn, I roughly sanded and rolled Guardz over the while ceiling. I ended up skim coating over it twice with usg plus blue bucket and it looks pretty good. Just really tiring! I have some questions though I'm hoping to get some advice on.
Should I use Guardz over every popcorn ceiling before I skim coat?
Do I need to clean the ceiling after skim costing before priming?
Should I use a primer like zinsser 123 on the ceiling before painting?
For walls with large drywall repairs like removing intercoms or big recessed rectangle lights I removed, do I just spot prime or prime the whole wall?
Should I always caulk first then, paint from ceiling, crown molding wall, windows/door molding, baseboard, walls?
Should I purposefully over paint ceiling and trim on the walls before cutting?
Do I need to caulk wall/ceiling area before painting?
Should I just manually cut my lines with good 2-3" angled brush, or try tape or edger? I've never painted before.
