Watching paint dry

[Light Hearted]

This has become my new hobby and I thought it would be nice to have a place to hang out with other paint enthusists so, here we go. Post your favorite paint dry stories and what's your favorite kind of paint. My personal favorite is Baehr paint. It's so nice and thick and goes on real easy. :D

[Lady_Wing_9]

No way? You mean I'm not alone?! This is amazing most people think I'm crazy for watching paint dry. My favorite to watch are the dark colors...you get spots of lighter and dark until it's all dry...so cool!

[Light Hearted]

I hear ya Tanquinette, it really should be an olympic sport. The dark ones are yesly the best but, I also like when you've got a painting technique like sponging going on. That is way cool for sure.

[Lady_Wing_9]

Have you tried using a feather duster? It gives a really neat effect as well.

[Light Hearted]

No, maybe I'll try that in the lower level. I bet it would look cool on that texture wall...

[Lady_Wing_9]

It would look really neat, you can add different colors to. We had one wall at my house like that. All kinds of different colors painted on a white wall with a feather duster.

[Light Hearted]

So, what kind of chair do you like to use? I kinda like my TV chair because I can just sit and rock out, very relaxing after a long hard day in TPOH.

[Lady_Wing_9]

I personaly like to just lay on the floor and watch the paint dry...but I'm weird so.........

[Tracey]

No I am not 30

Yes I am sure LH will give me a hard time for it

And OMG you peeps are weirder than I thought!!! :eek:

[Light Hearted]

Well that is a fairly well established fact. :rolleyes: Ok, so back to the paint I'm thinking of designing a paint drying chair to really maximize the impact of the sport. What are your thoughts on specific design details?

[Tracey]

Well that is a fairly well established fact. :rolleyes:

haha You know you love me!

[Light Hearted]

haha You know you love me!
Actually that was intended for Tanquinette but hey! I guess I hit two for one.

[Lady_Wing_9]

Well that is a fairly well established fact. :rolleyes: Ok, so back to the paint I'm thinking of designing a paint drying chair to really maximize the impact of the sport. What are your thoughts on specific design details?

You have a very good and somewhat tall point. A paint watching chair, I'm liking this idea very much. What have you got in mind?

[Light Hearted]

You have a very good and somewhat tall point. A paint watching chair, I'm liking this idea very much. What have you got in mind?
Well, I'm thinking it needs reclining abilities like majorly to maximize the optimum viewing experience, perhaps we could install a magnifying glass to really close in on those miniscule details.. ummmm, comfort is of the utmost importance and a tray for those long paint dry sessions to hold your beverages and snacks.

[Lady_Wing_9]

I was going to say cup holders are a must!

[Light Hearted]

Well of course they are. That would be my tall point.

[RedneckPrincess]

SWEET!!! I love watching paint dry!!! A special chair would yesly be nice. Washable fabric covers are a must, though... for those of us that like to get a little too close sometimes!!! :eek:

[Light Hearted]

Figures you like to watch paint try.... sure once it does you like eat the paint chips too....

[Light Hearted]

Well, I hear you inhale them.

[RedneckPrincess]

Greatness!!! :cool:

P.S. we did some walls at my church with the feather duster, and it was really cool.

I also like just flinging the paint and making splatters, but you really have to be careful that you have the carpet and things fully covered. That one kinda makes a mess. Cute though.

[RedneckPrincess]

Figures you like to watch paint try.... sure once it does you like eat the paint chips too....

[cheewiee]

Well, I hear you inhale them.

Well you hear wrong..

Why would you do that? You can redecorate the carpet at the same time and really have a unified look.

[Light Hearted]

Well you hear wrong..
Denial is not a pretty sight.

[RedneckPrincess]

dry... sorry your stupidity is rubbing off on me....
My stupidity? I have no stupidity... Besides, even if I did, you could not get any stupider than you already are, so it wouldn't rub off anyway. :rolleyes:

[cheewiee]

Why would you do that? You can redecorate the carpet at the same time and really have a unified look.

Apparently you like to inhale glue fumes if you think paint on carpets is an "in look".

[cheewiee]

Well, I have to do something to cover your stench.

[cheewiee]

Try opening your mouth... that noxious odor would cover over anything....

[RedneckPrincess]

Yeah, nothing like the smell of wet wookie at lunchtime.

[Lady_Wing_9]

So I'm interested to know how long it takes the paint to dry on your walls Oh-not-so-great-one-but-very-smelly-one. That stench just rolls of you in toxic waves it must melt the paint right of walls! :eek:

Thats only because you cover your natural stench with enough perfume to submerge all of Charleston, and New Orleans....

[cheewiee]

Yeah, nothing like the smell of wet wookie at lunchtime.

If you would just shut your trap, you wouldn't smell anything...

[Light Hearted]

My gosh! You must be sitting on a gold mine then. You've found paint that can withstand your toxic fumes...amazing.

As for me staying away from your house, that will not be a problem. You live in a cave and have the stench that even sunks eveny:rolleyes:

[cheewiee]

Well, it looks like things went downhill pretty fast around here after I left... *shakes head* I should have expected as much. Oh well...

[ledzeppelingirl]

You would not believe how often I have actually watched paint dry...

I worked for the past two summers as a summer student at the oil fields in Fort McMurray, Alberta. My job is to paint cement. Most of the time, we would be left alone in the plant, so we would paint something, and then just sit there until it was dry. No one really cared, it's not like the plant wouldn't run if it wasn't painted. It was the greatest job ever...and the best part? The pay was $19/hour, and double time after 40 hours. Most weeks, I worked anywhere from 60 - 80 hours.

Oh how I love watching paint dry...

[Light Hearted]

Well, it looks like things went downhill pretty fast around here after I left... *shakes head* I should have expected as much. Oh well...
What can I say? The fumes overcame us. :eek:
