Commercials for bear, sherman williams, etc show up around and everyone sees them eventually. Has anyone actually found a cheap paint that covers well and looks nice (water based for indoor) that is cheap and worth the idea of experimenting or doing a room that you know you will have to repaint white later before you move out. Been here 4 years, no real plans of leaving, fuck I put a chicken coop out back a near 2 years ago… but I know a day will come when they say “hey your rent is going up drastically or you can’t have pets or something”

Sadly they switched from year leases to month to month 3 years ago (after the first year) but I figure at some point maybe it is worth just painting something to make it more homeish than damnit I’m still here

    Some sherwin williams is great paint. Over the years, they have introduced multiple lines of paint in the “budget” tier that are absolutely terrible paints.

    Unfortunately, in my experience with paint, cheap paint really isn’t all that cheap. You will either end up paying in extra time or extra paint, and often in both.
