Priming before painting?
I have had 3 people come out to give me a quote. All 3 have stated I do not need primer (the walls are the icky eggshell/ivory/off-white builders love).One said b/c there were some grease stains and crayon marks from the previous owner, only those areas need to have Kilz on it. They all will do any wall repair needed. 1st quote is $1000 on about 1300sq ft w/ a 2 story foyer... the others I'm waiting on their proposals...
I thought you had to prime?
Priming before painting?
Priming can be used to seal a wall, like from grease or something, or to cover up a dark color. If you choose a dark color for paint, you should use a tinted primer so you don't have to use as many coats.
Reply:It sounds like an inside job to me.
Give the walls a good cleaning with sugar soap. With the cleaning products at the supermarket.
The price sounds reasonable to me, if it includes the paint, scaffolding, drop cloths masking etc.
If they are professionals they will stand by their work.
Watch out for "cowboys" or "fly by night amateurs.
Some words of advice.
Would you ask the baker about banking ?

Think about that.
Reply:You've received some great answers. I've been a do-it-yourselfer for many years. I don't prime unless I have to. If you're painting over recently painted walls that are clean then you don't need primer. Older paint, a very dark color, or paint you're not sure if it's oil or latex-based, then a good primer would be recommended.
I use Magic Eraser, great product. Also goo-gone is wonderful. Clean after using these products before painting to remove any residue.
And do try it yourself. Cover up the floors, tape off any woodwork, move furniture out of the way. Wear grungy clothes you dont' care about, and have fun! I love to paint, it's a great catharsis. Oh, and for your two-story foyer, a paint stick and a painting pad to do edges are great. The paint pad/edger has these little wheels on it that allows you to get very close to molding/ceilings without getting paint on the molding as long as you watch and make sure no paint in on the wheels. (This is why I don't usually tape anything off, but for a newbie, tape is recommended)
Good luck, and have fun!
Reply:u should prime it helps alot
i paint my own house and always prime my frfiend once didnt and it lookedl ike crapt
Reply:you have had 3 professional painters come over and tell you , that it is not necissary to prime , however you are going to listen to yahoo users instead? trying to see the logic in that. aside from that they are correct you do not need to prime, only over the marks, i would clean off the grease and then prime lightly sand it, if at all, then paint the wall
Reply:Priming is not necessary when painting over existing paint unless there are grease spots as you pointed out or unless the color on the wall is dark and you are wanting to go lighter - which is not the case in your situation. However, I always prime when painting a bathroom area because of the moisture. The primer makes the paint adhere better. Another instance where primer can actually save you money is if you are painting new drywall or if the paint on the wall already is a cheap flat paint. The primer can make you have to use less of the more expensive custom color you are putting on the wall. If you really want to save money - I would consider doing it yourself. Painting is not difficult and it can be really rewarding in the end. My husband and I recently helped my daughter paint the entire inside of her newly constructed home and she saved over $8000! It only took us a little more than two weekends to do it.
Reply:You usually only need to prime if you are painting new drywall or plaster. Most grease and crayon stains can be removed or lightened with Mr. Clean magic eraser, so further coverage may not be necessary. You can continue to use magic eraser to keep your walls clean. I use mine constantly in the high traffic areas, and it works really well.

Reply:Your silly "test" is merely a variation of what is called the "argument by design." It is even more meaningless today than it was when first proposed by St. Thomas Aquinas, in the thirteenth century.
All living things are capable of spontaneous self-assembly, with the overall design being encoded in each cell's DNA. Neither, buildings, nor paintings, nor automobiles are capable of self-assembly, so your argument is completely meaningless.
Before you stick your neck out again, I suggest you study St. Thomas Aquinas' six "proofs" of God's existence. They've all been discredited long ago and most experienced atheists know them by heart.
Reply:That kind of logic perpetuated the thinking that the world is flat.
Reply:1. Not just one singular builder but many, many specialists.
2. Many paintings, many painters
3. Again, specialization and division of labor
4. Probably a critical thinker.
So your argument is from complexity, no? There is no "Watchmaker" just so you know. It's an assembly line, with no singular creator.
And who created your creator? There goes your argument. Clearly not everything needs a creator.

Reply:by your argument your god must also have builder/painter/maker
Either everything requires a creator or not everything requires a creator
if everything requires a creator then so does your god
if not everything requires a creator then why does the universe.

Should we reclassify what it is to be human?
I live in a large cultural desert called Grimsby in the U.K. and am finding myself resorting to checking for the opposable thumb on people who I deal with in my job to make sure they are not just shaved apes, however it seems these apes do posess opposable thumbs, but have social skills and an ability to learn that makes chimps seem positively superior.
Should we reclassify these apes as a different species (even though they can interbreed with humans) and put them to work in medical research (as subjects not researchers), in circuses as cheep entertainment, or train them to do all the simple, menial, low paid jobs that we hate?
It seems that many of them are in simple, highly paid jobs, such as elictricians, builders, plumbers, E.T.C.
Should we reclassify what it is to be human?
I know exactly what you mean... I've thought that some people are just not human because they are so stupid... but we can't reclassify them.. we need to just put them to good use doing jobs the rest of us don't want to do... like maybe they don't have brains but they have brawn, or maybe beauty. Who knows... either way, maybe they have some redeeming quality which is useful.

What is it about Planet Fitness's rules?
I currently work out at a Planet Fitness. When I joined I noticed there rules included no grunting and no dropping weights. Why is that? It's a gym.....the hard core body builders sometimes grunt b/c they're lifting so much weight, it's a natural thing.
It doesn't bother me either whether someone grunts or drops a weight, I understand why.
Just curious though if anyone knows why that rule is in place.
What is it about Planet Fitness's rules?
Yea, I would never join that place because of stupid rules like that. I just read in the news about a guy who had his membership revoked and was escorted out of a Planet Fitness because of his grunting.
Granted, there are extreme examples out there where people are only trying to draw attention to themselves, but when I'm truly going all out max exertion and intensity, I can't help but to make noise. Also, it's hard to help dropping 130lb dumbells after an exhausting set of incline bench press, I try to control it but that's dang hard.
I always try to be considerate of my noise levels and try to prevent dropping of weights as much as possible. I can uderstand it in regards to those folks who are just seeking attention (hey everyone, look at how much weight I'm lifting and how hard I'm working!) or those guys who slam the weights down after a set as sortof and exclamation point, but some normal occasional grunting helps.
