Yes , but that's adding some big time weight though. Is there a special color you've found that you want to use ? With all the spray colors, I don't understand why you want the house paint.

I see. It's the weight issue.
I saw an article in a magazine about using latex, and I have a lot laying around. This compounded by the fact that I WORKED SO MUCH on covering with dope and koverall and spent ALL that money on dope paint and thinner ONLY to mix it incorrectly and getting bad results makes me just want to douse and burn the airplane with gasoline. OR I could easily just paint with the paint I have laying around, but if it's going to be a weight issue then I will have to reconsider.
Thanks for the reply.
