PeteVS, I'm sorry if I got this thread sidetracked with my rather manic rant. I had a tough day on a couple of fronts and came up from the shop and saw your request, which is one of my favorite subjects. I hope others will continue to show up with suggestions and I will be happy to learn from them and share what I have learned about mixing and applying flat finishes over the years.
