how long do you want it to last before you have to do it again? if the
answer is more than 3 years, i would prime, then double coat paint it. the
last coat of paint will go on very easy, but will be the difference between
a job that lasts, and one that doesnt. i realize you have MS, but the paint
doesnt care. if you want to save energy, do it right, once, then forget
about it for 10-15 years.

eggshell. you get most of the benefits of more glossy paint, but can still
be somewhat sloppy applying it.

I am going to paint a small bathroom w/shower and the paint that is on the
walls now will come off if washed. Since I haven't painted walls before I
have some questions.

1- Should I put a primer on the wall after washing them?
2- What type of paint? Flat, gloss, semi gloss? etc, etc?
3- As I have Multiple Sclerosis (Always looking to save my energy), is
there truly any such thing as a one coat paint?

Any suggestions welcomed.

Thanks
