Finished hanging the drywall on Saturday in the shop area of the gar/shop. The ceilings are 10 ft. I opted to have a couple of pros do the taping, because frankly, I suck at taping, and I'd like to get it done sometime this year. A good friend is a carpentry/drywall contractor, so he sent out two guys to do the taping. Amazing what the proper tools and skills can do. The ceiling is about 480 SF and the walls are another 700 SF. They taped the joints and did the first layer of mud in about 2 1/2 hours. The bazooka seems to be the key. Being able to walk on stilts to reach the 10 foot ceiling helps also.
Ok, the point is, I'm going to be ready to paint soon. I'm planning to prime everything, of course, but after that, I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for paint. White seems to be the way to go. What about sheen? Semi-gloss? Gloss? Anything else to consider?
