I asked if their 400 line primer was better, he mentioned CHB as being the same thing, the only difference was you could leave it as a flat ceiling paint. One or two coats of CHB and your done.

I went back and forth with him a little, stating I was going to prime and apply 2 finished coats, so the one coat application did not apply to my situation. He said, try CHB, if it does not compare to our NDP then bring it back and will swap it out for our 400 primer.

Thoughts? I put the brakes on... (again) and thinking this over before I start the project. I cut in one of the rooms already with SW NDP and I like it!!

NDP... (new drywall primer)

my argument to the SW manager was CHB was a hybrid and not a primer only. i want more bonding agents, which i'm guessing their NDP possesses!
