Question about pre-primed lumber: I'm putting up some utility shelving in my workroom, and wondered if using pre-primed lumber without painting it is okay. It looks a bit better than raw lumber. I don't want to spend the time painting the shelf and waiting for it to dry. I just wondered if there were any "oud-dusting" issues with using pre-primed lumber as is.

1. for shelving, it should work great or spray paint over it, quick dry time and great results with the new spray paints available from rustoleum

2. I'm so impatient I don't even want to spray paint! I never spray paint inside the house, and lately we're deluged with rain, so can't do it outside either. I'm all worked up on my new storage shelving ideas and just want to get to it this weekend. Normally I like to spray paint stuff--it finishes the surface and looks okay, but weather and time are against it this weekend!

This DUmmy may be like our old friend Drale, blacklisted from buying spray paint.
