I don't like painting , therefore I would not drag it out for a week for one room.

There's painting and then there's painting. Being out on the open boards isn't so bad. Scraping, painting around gingerbread, trimming, any inside painting, or any painting involving association with the wife is bloody awful. (What I really hate is baling hay.)

I don't mind it at all as long as I can use my airless sprayer. Brushes and rollers? Forgetaboutit. Just tape and cover anything you don't want to get splattered and spray away.

24 years in the Navy and less than ten minutes with a paint brush in my hand. That answer your question?

Cove molding at the ceiling, chair rail, two doors, all painted dark blue. Now they are white, after 3 coats. Had to tape everything off. Then the walls have to be painted. I'ts a bitch having to paint left handed.
