Carl, yesterday i went thru the 2 discount program. The salesperson, said "oops" wrong account, "that was the one before we changed ur discount". Yeah Ampainting, stay away from the 17 yr old. Im a production painter, lots of paint that the contractor pays for. I buy 3m mask, 3m tape, strainers, like its goin out of style, 90% of my spraying is out of a 5gal bucket, and its all on my GC. Thye guys at SW are definitely not painters, but my ?s 2 them are not about technique, but products and price. There are 4 employees in my local store. 1 i trust, 1 is ok, 1 is the 17yr old, 1 is the wallpaper person. Im kind of in a hurry when i go in, and they R very accommadating 2 help me out. I go there bcz they take care of me well. I think they have a huge DIY business that slows the PROS down, call ahead 4 faster service. I live in W Mass and my store gpes the x mile 2 help me out
