I didnt tape/carefully do the trim-"over bordered" onto wall where the blue will go. Should I redo the areas again with the grey primer? Will there be a discoloration when blue goes over the red?

Where's the big B going?

Where's the big B going? Blue and red = Thomas the train. Actually the paint I am using is Glidden. I know i know I didnt know anything about paint until I logged onto this forum after i bought the paint . Anyway I just decided to go over the areas with the grey primer

You talking to a yanks fan here. I know they're up in the standings, but they'll blow it as usual.
