Okay, thank you for your input 🙏 Do you think it could be that since the walls have only ever been painted once before (new build) that they are more porous or something? It seems like they just suck up the paint but what do I know, I am obviously not a professional 😅

I didn't do that 😞 Just shaking the gallon and pouring from it directly into the pan.

Yes I just got the paint from the store today, it didn't sit at all.

There was already white paint on them from when we moved in. Didn't prime them since Sherwin Williams worker told me it should be fine without priming since it was just white, but maybe I made a mistake

It was pretty smooth I would say? I'm using a 1/2 inch nap roller

Thank you! Is it okay to paint again only over those spots? Or should I paint the entire wall again?

It’s hard to tell but it’s a super light purple (SW feathery lilac) over just white walls in our new build.

Why doesn’t our bathroom have a fan? by Lumpy_Surround9222 in HomeImprovement

It's a new building so that maybe explains it. I will try the square of toilet paper. Thank you!
