    I'm about to run out of spray paint on a fairly small job.

    Muggins here forgot that Montana is acrylic, rather than the plaastic-based stuff I usually use for this sort of job, so I didn't bother priming the MDF and... yup, fucker's just soaking that shit right up. Third coat on a metre-wide piece and I'm going to run out of fucking paint. I was hoping to hand over in a couple of hours too.

    Bollockry.

    • It's ok. Not happy with surface finish, so am going to splurge on some plastic bullshit clear spray lacquer or something. I am a stupid, stupid little man.detritus
    • it's for a Nigerian client (am trying to get in with the Nigerian Events Mafia) so it needs to look a little bit bling. Finish now looks more like 70s Dundee.detritus
    • Always prime your shit before painting, folks. It takes fuck all effort. Even just a diluted PVA wash would've done here.
      Two minutes worth of work.      detritus
