Hey, I have a quick question for the seasoned veteran rollers out there...

About how much thinned paint mixture are you guys using for each coat of paint? I'd like each coat to be somewhat uniform and I worried that if I mix by cosistency then I might run out mid-coat if I don't mix up enough.



I would get a good jar like a mason jar and mix it up in there.. that way you will not run out of mixed stuff. Just add a bit of the mineral spirits before painting to get the consistency right (in the jar) then pour it into the tray. I'd say 1/8th of a regular mason jar would be used each full coat, that's a very rough guess though..
