She mixed dry wall mud into her paint til it was pancake batter consistency and rolled it on the wall for the first coat. She said it worked wonders.

Not that I want you to not have things done that drive you crazy, but I am grateful that I’m not the only one who can only get so far on things and then priorities and real life intervene for a while. Thanks for including the effort/stress/humor-in-endurance and not only the glossy before and after pictures.

We actually ended up skim coating with drywall compound, a quick sand with the hand sander, and now it looks like new! You’re right though, that’s another week of work just to paint. Of all the renos we’ve done, popcorn ceiling removal and painting have been the most annoying… Good luck! We used that same colour green on our windowsills for a pop of colour on our otherwise white everything else! Love it!

I totally understand that, but with multiple boys in and out of our house for all the projects we have happening for home and work, a matte wall doesn’t show splatter as much! That said, I had considered a matte-agent in my remaining paint for a final coat!

An eggshell or matte finish would minimize the texture differences – although I realize that means another coat of paint.
