I just learned to tell a quality latex paint from a cheap paint is to rub it

between your fingers. If it feels gritty it's a cheap paint. If it feels
smooth its a good paint. A cheap paint uses clay and a more expensive paint
uses titanium dioxide.



I had never heard about that test. Thanks for the tip.


One more tip for you.

Don't believe everything you read here.


Which means what?

Which means that this supposed "test" is BS. Even cheap paint feels smooth
between the fingers.
