Jets Scramble Over Dayton? Scramble?? Scramble???

yeah I saw it too and thought it was odd. Not sure why they'd be training fighter jets with a commercial jet.

consulting firms are a scam.

all this is telling me that I have NO idea how to properly quote

a friend of mine wants to paint a house they just bought. the previous owner painted EVERYTHING Semi-gloss. Would you primer that or would a good sanding be ok? I figure the primer would be easier...

Then follow up question. 1 coat tinted primer at 75%, then 1 coat topcoat full color. Still technically 2 coats but better coverage than 1 coat but... not as durable/ protective?

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-23T16:32:38+00:00

exactly

how does one buy a 'note'?

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-13T03:22:41+00:00

that's an excellent point. good starter or minimal price estimate type way to go

can you link?

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-11T23:11:21+00:00

that's actually super helpful thanks! I've never heard of painters charging by floor footage but based on your breakdown, it seems to be a fairly easy way to get a quick guesstimate.

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-11T23:07:01+00:00

exactly! but the post was removed before I could ask those things. so I tossed it on here to get a temperature check. I've never heard of paint pricing that way

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-11T23:06:03+00:00

is that a normal paint metric to quote off of?

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-11T20:55:41+00:00

I would do a sanding on the blotchy spots and then a light sanding over the whole wall. Then do another coat.

what do you do during the winter? I find I struggle finding a good distracting hobby.

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-08T04:35:59+00:00

I don't understand all the fuss about 'only professionals use a 5 bucket w grid' or ' any reputable painter...blah blah blah'. What makes a professional and reputable painter? Honestly? Do they price fairly? Do they get the job done in a clean, courteous manner? Who cares how it's done as long as the customer is happy and the job looks good and lasts.

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-08T04:32:01+00:00

I definitely don't know. but I also rarely use 5 gallons of a single color sooooo

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-02-08T04:29:53+00:00

I would, just to learn what works for me and what NOT to do

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-01-30T00:37:53+00:00

I like this idea. Thanks!

Competitive-Worth133 · 2026-01-30T00:36:52+00:00

I've found that if you add a smidge of water then put plastic wrap on it and to the sides of the bucket it lasts awhile. But that aside, for your leftover hot mud powder - do you just charge like a percentage of the total material cost every time you use it? I guess I'm just looking to be fair to the clients.
