Verified purchase

I bought the white primer and white lullaby paint to re-paint two cribs. Unfortunately it is taking me 3 coats so far (4 including the primer) and it is still not covering the old colours.
I have decided to not continue as the multiple coats of paint do not look good, making my cribs look cheap, and I have decided to buy two new cribs.

Dear Jess,

Thank you for contacting us.
We typically recommend applying one coat of primer and then two coats of paint.
If the coverage is not uniform at that point, there is possibly an issue either with the application, or the substrate.

In particular, for a crib, if the original finish has not been removed, it could be impeding the lay down of new paint and primer.
Factory finishes on cribs often contain solvents, or oils, which are not compatible with a water based paint or primer.
We hope that this helps.

Happy Painting!
Your ECOS Team

Received two paint samples. The blue one leaked all over the inside of the packaging

It looks like I chose the wrong colors/samples. I will admit, the colors are completely different...
