You can have them shoot tint into the primer.

Also the better quality of the paint, the less coats you'll need. Sherwin Williams paint has the best coverage of any I've ever used. You may pay 50% more for it but you'll use less, so it should cost the same in the end.

Coach, you need another beer. ** -- Stork 08/12/2020 1:46PM

Can dark beer be used as tint? Guess not.** -- coshokie 08/12/2020 1:49PM

Dang, that sounds sweet. was it super glossy like a car? -- HokieSignGuy 08/12/2020 2:27PM

Glossy, but the drywall doesn't let it get mirror-like. -- 48zip 08/12/2020 2:43PM

What kind of paint were you using on those walls? Seems like a latex-based -- HokieSignGuy 08/12/2020 2:53PM

A couple of things. (I have exact same). -- 48zip 08/12/2020 1:10PM
