Default "Cheap" paint

Did a price comparison on paint this week for some cabinets in the garage..

MagnaMax from the local real paint store 30 bucks a gallon.

Crap from Home Despot or Sears, 30 bucks a gallon.

Well, that decision was easy.


Add a few bucks and go for Aura by Benjamin Moore. Goes further,
doesn't need primer, two coats and Bob's your uncle. An absolute treat
to work with. Maybe a bit of overkill for garage cabs.

The extra coverage almost makes up for the price—too close to matter.
