Bedroom painting advice? We are planning on painting our bedroom a very bright and vibrant red/orange color and then sponging over it with a glaze a few shades brighter. Here is a link to the exact color we want (though not necessarily that brand of paint): http://rlhome.polo.com/rlhome/products/paint/sponging_howto.asp Anyway, I'm getting mixed suggestions and was wondering what advice I could get. What would be the best paint to use that would require the least amount of coats? I would prefer high quality, but wish to go the cost effective route. Ralph Lauren's instructions don't actually say anything about a primer, but I've heard without using a primer, it could cost me more then two coats of paint to reach the desired color. So what brand should I go with (good quality, cost effective and least amount of coats) and do I need a primer? Thanks in advance!

I'm single handedly painting my bedroom and I'm in a dilemma. Can someone help please? I have the good old wood chip paper on my walls and I've decided to re-paint it. The problem is, down along the sides of the paper (where it joins), as I paint on top of the wood chip paper, it's opening up. I've tried sticking it down with wallpaper paste, but it won't stick. I've put on about 6 coats of paint to try and seal it up, but it still opens up. It has now got to the point where it's so thick with paint it's stiff. I have explained this the best way I can and would be grateful for any good advice.
