The second coat of paint in the living room did indeed do the trick. When I look at the walls I am still somewhat overwhelmed by my audacity at choosing such a bold color, so much so that I cannot really appreciate the beauty of it yet.
The kitchen on the other hand, using the same paint, just a different color, required only one coat, with nary a mark to be seen. Thoroughly confusing.
Touching up the ceiling in the family room (where we had started the painting experience, and hadn't realized the need to tape off the ceiling as well) went fairly well. The line where Nini stopped painting can't be seen, although some of the spots are still showing through, and would need a second coat. All of which tells me that if ever we wanted to change this wall color, we would have to use about two coats of primer before we can start putting on a different color. So, I sincerely hope that we are going to absolutely love this color. We'd better!
