[Rinky Dinks Painting]

Whats the best trim paint that you all have found out there that is waterbased . I like to use oil base but the smell in some homes they dont like it . I really like the sw Proclasic Or Prtr oil. I thought about the aura water based but I can not get it here , bm said that it was to high to order around here. So any other water based paints that lay down good besides that.

Pro-classic water based is probably the toughest paint to work with that I know of. Plus it is lacking in the sheen department IMO.

I like BM regal and SW cashmere quite a bit.

are their guys using $50/gallon aura for trim paint?

ProClassic can be tough to work with. Try taming it with 4-6oz/gallon of Latex X-Tender. You will find that PC will flow out better, the brush strokes will be reduced, and it will have a better gloss. Test it and you will see.

BM Satin Impervo, smooth as glass.

By "Dries Brushless" do you mean that it flow out well enough that no brush strokes show or they disapear?

I sure wish I had a way to get you all our product called DuraPoxy. For those of you that don't "know me" yet, my name is Brent. I work for Kelly-Moore Paints. We are a west coast company based out of CA. The farthest east we are as of today, is OK.

DuraPoxy comes in 3 sheens..... Eggshell(1686), Semi(1685), and Gloss(1680). It is quite honestly the best product for trim/cabinets/crown. Can be brushed, rolled, or sprayed. Like Mythic said, brush strokes are to an absolute minimum for a latex enamel. I have customers brush it over "aged" oils after they sand, and it sticks w/o any problems.

Again, I sure wish you could use this. You would not be disappointed.

 

[bikerboy]

Are your plans to grow to the east coast?

 

[YubaPaintPro]

I doubt we will get to MD any time soon. Sorry. The only way I see that is w/ a dealer. We are looking to expand thru dealers, so if you know of anyone not satisfied w/ their current program let me know. I am just a sales rep, but I know who to contact to get that ball rolling. Thx.

SW ProClassic. I use it for ALL my interior trim.

Duration (about 90% of the time) for exterior trim. Repaints especially....

Bingo! Thats what i use and recommend

 

[polakthepainter]

would you guys say that SW is better then glidden delux diamond series? but to this day Manor Hall by Pittsburgh is on the top on my list.

I don't know about any other paint for trim other than SW. I guess the only reason I realy stick with SW is because the ProClassic is sandable. I don't know any other paint that is sandable. I have used Miller Paint and wished I had never done so... Paint balls up and is a mess if you run and need to sand it out. I have used Miracle Sand to help with other paints that are not sandable.... I'd rather take the Miracle Sand step out and just use ProClassic if I error some how.

Are there other sandable paints other than SW ProClassic?

BM AquaGlo and Satin Impervo. I get better results with AquaGlo as far as brush strokes and coverage. I have to really pay attention with SI because I am kinda slow, it does produce a great finish as long as I do my part.
