Another Job

You should have rented a cat to pee on your sweat stains before you put in the claim.

Don't tell my wife. My next project is a bookcase for her.

While I may consider milk paint, I hate green. ;-)

Good to know.

So I called for warranty coverage and answered 20 questions. What would you say caused the surface to discolor. Me, I don't know, maybe sweat. Is that what you want us to put down as the cause? Sure, its a bodily fluid, I don't really care what caused it. Is that your final answer? Yes,

Pause, we are sorry but sweat is not covered.

I bought the furniture at a prominent store in Houston and the brand was Flexsteel. Not Cheap.

I read the manager the riot act and he took care of the problem.

But does she like green? My wife pocked the color. Don't second guess colors that your wife picks out. ;~)

The milk paints come in a load of "country colors".

I'm in the middle of similar issue right now, although mine is related to an issue with the condition of my *not cheap* sectional upon arrival. The one I waited 2 months to have delivered. (It's Covid, you know)

2 piece sectional, therefore 8 wooden legs. 5 of the 8 legs looked like this at delivery:

The repair guys shows up and based on the single picture that the delivery guy uploaded, the repair guy thought I had one minor scratch and thought he could take it out to the truck and throw some stain on it. "That ain't happening, I want all new legs."

It's now 8 weeks later. They apparently lost the order for my legs and don't expect to see the second order for *at least* 6 more weeks. I told the rep that I could make a set of legs in one afternoon and be done with this fiasco.

"I'm sorry sir. We're sending you a $250 gift card for your trouble."

Great. Thanks. I probably can't even get a lamp at that store for $250.

I once had that plan, until it didn't work. She picked the paint for our family room. She was out of the house paint day. I opened the can and thought ("Pepto Bismol"). Well... She didn't much like it either.

Not my favorites. Not enough saturation for my taste.

[Leon]

We waited 4 months and it was about 8 years ago.

Define Saturation. General Finishes milk paints are heavy bodied and quite opaque. One coat is almost enough over most any color.

[krw]

Color intensity. The 'S' in the HSV visual system. Milk paint colors are more washed out than I prefer. Intense red is the best paint for cherry. ;-)
