Good answers so far.

I'm a Benjamin Moore man myself.


This man is my hero--->masterhandyman.com. There is something spiritual about working on the house on saturday and sunday mornings and listening to him answer questions.

I found a place that I can buy Benjanin Moore at a discount, so that's what I buy for exterior work, as well as Zinsser oil based High Hide Cover Stain. For interior, I use and off the shelf color from Sears. Always a very light eggshell (I forget the name). Off the shelf colors are almost never dark. The only rooms that get gloss or semi gloss are the kitchen and bathroom. The bathrooms also get Zinsser PERMA-WHITE®, Mold & Mildew-Proof Interior Paint.

1) Whats the difference between sheetrock and drywall? Nothing Any advantage to one over the other? The thicker, the better, but it gets freakin' heavy!

Not necessarily the thicker ones last the same amount of time as the thinner ones, but is better at soundproofing.

What the FSCK is going on with the forums??????

That was messed up. I was logged in as someone else. :Q My preferences settings changed, I was like.. wtf.. then I noticed I had a new PM.. when I looked at my PMs, it was a conversation between 2 other people...

When I refreshed, I was in Forums Issues even though it said catid=38..

When I tried to post... it went here. :Q

I LOVE my baby! Just used it today, and she's running like a top.

Edit: Not sure about the forums, but my SBC DSL has been going in and out all day. I've had to reset it several times already. I'm calling them right now to see what gives. :disgust:
