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.


About 10 years ago I painted a kitchen and pantry including inside the
cabinets. One coat, One gallon, Pratt and Lambert, $40 per gallon. I
try not to scrimp when I buy the paint. The good stuff is easier to work
with and covers better for a longer period of time.

I have painted many complete homes interiors since when the customer
provides the paint. Booooooo....

Why go with latex when you can have precat for less?
