Question 11

I've read everything and still don't understand. Do I need to purchase other products to use this kit? I know I need a gallon of gloss paint, but I'm seeing links to other products as well. This is already very expensive for very small coverage. The kit doesn't come with everything I'll need, aside from the paint? One ingredient isn't available anymore and Quickrete is the required replacement. Is this non-toxic? Thank you. View answer

Asked 2 ´years ago

Question 41

I ran out of AFM transitional primer after using three gallons for three rooms, and my painters were not really able to get a good cover on the master bedroom with new drywall. I am not happy with the thin layer of primer that is on the walls. My question is can I use the gallon of ECOS drywall primer over top of AFM transitional primer to get a more even coverage than I have? I like how our other rooms look with a very good coat of AMF and always believed it is important to have good solid coat of primer for a nicer paint finish. View answer
