So strange! Maybe wait for it to dry completely and apply one more coat? If that dries and still looks strange you might need to use a primer.

I am painting a wall in my daughter’s room Tropical Teal from Benjamin Moore. I have done two coats and the tone is different in one section of the wall. How can I paint to get the color even on the whole wall? I have never used a bold color before to paint a wall and this one is giving me fits. It was a light pink previously, so I did not use primer. Also the paint is paint and primer in one. With other colors, the touch ups have blended nicely, but that is not the case for this one. Any suggestions as I know that you use bold colors on walls? I appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

Did you all paint yours white, or did you have a different system for the adjustable shelving? Thanks!

It’s so hard to get the right color the first time. I had to paint a wall 3 times one time to have it come out like I wanted it. Love it! Will need to try this; thank you!

I have a somewhat awkward space in our kitchen. the previous owners enclosed the carport and, as a result, there was a window that needed to be filled in. It i the size of a window with very shallow shelves. The kitchen is a light blue and I was thinking of painting the back of the shelves a navy blue. How do you think that would look??
