It will soak up paint on the first coat like a sponge, so for economy,
check with your local landfill, many of them have paint recycling
programs where you can get recycled paint free or very cheap.( If not,
check with your local paint or big-box store for returns and
mismatches. Don't mix latex and oil-based, they are incompatible.) If
the color of the blended paint is acceptable, great. If not, paint the
desired color on top the first coat, you will still save a bundle. Save
a little for the new owner for touch-ups and graffitti recoat. Best
wishes for your project.-Jitney
