Question

Going rate for painting primer only?


Have a job going and owner wants me to prime it. I'm going to supply paint and other materials, not used to bidding paint per square ft oh ceilings are stomped and will be painting as well. 10 foot ceilings throughout home about 10,000 ft of board. I know painters bid by the floor area footage just need to get close. Thank you. In the Midwest

I believe the going rate is $10 to any select one of us, to our pay pal, and we'll let you know.

Re: Going rate for painting primer only?


I'm gonna blame it on my spell checker. It took three tries to get tree fitty.

Just the auto checker in the iPhone. Try to misspell a word and it'll change it for you twice.

that's pretty good humor. You're on the DW forum on your phone. That's how to multitask, I guess!

My custom pc is slower to load than you could possibly imagine. I can be surfing the iPhone in seconds. Just can't load adobe flash. And the keyboard is a bit on the small side.
