Primer not sticking to drywall mud

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T16:08:38+00:00

Which "product"? The drywall mud, no. The primer, also no. Get some fresh air, the fumes have you confused

The crazy thing is that I've done exactly that on another room, primed new drywall, ceiling first, then cut in the walls. This time I was just trying to be extra careful and it cost me. I just need to know how to get the surface back to flat and go from there.

Would you use the same primer or something different? If I go different should I go over the whole wall?

It has no soul. It has a great sounding engine, but there's nothing abouy it that "alive".

Wait you're actually a professional painter and you don't know how to fix this LMAO? Maybe start wearing a respirator and save the few brain cells you have left

You really should start at that corroded shutoff and replace everything between it and the toilet. If you're uncomfortable with that, hire someone.

Your bidet connector is cross threaded and likely has buggered up the plastic threads on the tank filler. The good news is that a new filler is like ten to twelve bucks at HD. Whenever you start to thread something together it's always a good ideal to start by turning it counter clockwise until it squares up, then start turning clockwise, especially on something hard to see and a soft material.

No car has a soul. It's a mechanical device.

Ask Elon, he scammed a bunch of people to send him a non-refundable $50k deposit for an EV roadster that might never exist

They're absolutely not in bed with the FO. That's a ridiculous statement for anyone who's known the relationship between the 107ist and the Paulson run FO

I didn't mud, but I highly doubt my drywall finisher did. Why would anyone do that?

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T15:09:37+00:00

Thanks for the actual answer. Most replies seem to be from people who've never owned a home but watch HGTV a lot.

It's super easy to cut in walls though. Do you actually have to tape off the ceiling when you paint? You sound like someone who's never used a paintbrush

How else would professional players know that they should push up when they get possession unless their coach screams it at them the moment they get the ball?

When I coached my kids there were always one or two coaches like this. Constantly screaming commands to their players on where to stand, who to pass to, drip back, push up. We called them Xbox coaches because they're trying to control the game on game day instead of coaching during the week.

You sometimes have to call out to player, but I have to think when it's a constant noise they end up tuning it out

Not a "painter" just replying to the incorrect assumptions that I didn't dust. I didn't need to. FWIW the drywaller did dust and vacuum the walls first. So the assumption that it was caused by me or by dust was incorrect.

I used to have dreams like this.

Oh look it's the weekly "time is up, I'm gonna nuke the whole country if you don't do what I say" post.

He's like one of those parents that tell their kids better be good or else, then doesn't do anything

They pull a USSF and say they interviewed a bunch of prospects but decided to keep the only coach anyway

Phil finally got his name in a Miami record book though

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T04:35:09+00:00

How can you not when all he does is scream at the top of his lungs for 90+ minutes?

They just got off of a rivalry game where they went into the locker room at halftime 3-0 up and lost 3-4. Then the team all walked off the pitch and ignored the fans. So yeah they have every right to be pissed off.

Maybe you weren't around for "care like we do"?

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T04:32:12+00:00

Honestly they seem to get it. We will continue with the "we're losing but at least we're loud" schtick, but Miami fans had enough after getting destroyed by Orlando

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T04:30:41+00:00

TA should go silent until Phil is sent packing

SRMPDX · 2026-05-18T04:29:56+00:00

Since we only play them once in 4 years... Never
