Probably a beginner paint question, but I'm a beginner.

I've been painting some interior rooms, using good quality Benjamin
Moore (mostly darker colors on the bottom half of the 6-part chip
sample) and I always seem to require at least 3 coats to make the brush
marks diappear. Even over 2 solid coats of primer. What might I be
doing wrong?

Thanks for any advice.

Some stuff called Flo-trol (?), or Flo-something that is available at Home
Depot and hardware stores. It is a liquid and mixes with the paint, and
really makes it flow nicely. Brush marks are a combination of substrate
(what you are painting), the type and quality of brush, the thickness of
paint, the temperature, the temperature of the substrate, lots of things.

But the Flo-trol (sp?) sure helps.
