My previous post was closed and referred to another site because I must have used the wrong word. I mentioned not being a pro, which is true compared to most on this forum, but I am not an incompetent painter and have painted for 10+ years. I am currently working on a project painting a large...

A client of mine has selected SW 6076 Turkish Coffee as their kitchen cabinet color. Their cabinets will be sprayed with an airless. I had planned on painting the cabs in ProClassic Oil satin but this color can't be made in ProC. Anybody have experiences (good or bad) using ASE Satin oil on...

Hello all..... A customer of mine wanted me to paint his lacquered oak cabs. I have already done the prep, and cleaned with deglosser. My problem is I cant get oil primer in my county anymore, and don't want any tannin/stains bleeding through. Advice on SW primers that have worked for you guys...

Hi everyone. Let me start off by saying that this is my first paint talk post. Next week I'm going to be doing a kitchen face lift, painting some lacquered cabinets, and re-tiling in an occupied home. I live in California, so oils and lacquered paints are sadly out. I will be tenting off the...

Hi, i sprayed some cabinets yesterday with behr semi gloss/primer. But the finish appears to be flat. Anybody have any idea why this is? I sprayed three coats of paint but they still appear to be flat like primer. I think it might just be the paint? I did add water to the mixture but then i...
