I Need Your Help To Prove My Dad Wrong.
I've been getting paint Promar 400 from SW for about 75 bucks a 5.
He claims that you can get a 5 that DR Horton uses from SW for less than 40 dollars. He's been painting for 20 years and used to work for DR Horton but I seriously don't believe him. I'm going to ask SW tomorrow but if I could get an answer right now, it would be great. I live in Texas. Is it true? |

Re: I Need Your Help To Prove My Dad Wrong.
Is promar 400 below promar 200? I have always thought so, but not sure.

No, but what's the need to prove your dad wrong? Maybe this is non of my business but what will this accomplish? If this were my dad I'd say "your right" and go along with life and a good relationship with him. ![]() Jerry |

Turns out he was right, but the paint is very cheap and they purchase in volume.

Re: I Need Your Help To Prove My Dad Wrong.
I was going to tell you that no matter what the question was, your dad was not wrong. Dad is never wrong, even when he is. Didn;t you ever learn anything about respecting your father? Shame on you.

And my father used to say the same about Nixon. I just glad my father realized the truth long before his journey ended. (ooops, not meant to be political, just showing that even fathers can still learn - I know I can) |

![]() Obviously you didn't get the rules when you were hired on. They are the same for marriage, with only a small change in words. 1. The boss is never wrong. 2. If the boss is wrong, see number 1. 3. Even when you know beyond the shadow of a doubt the boss is wrong, its best to stop reading these rules at number 2. Number 3 will only get your butt handed to you.
