We do custom kitchen, bath, and flooring for clients where we often run into issues such as stained drywall from water damage; prior work that was badly done; and needing to custom match paint or stain colors.
I only use Perspective's. The people know what they are doing, service is outstanding, and the quality of the products let us get the results we demand without extra work.
IMO, in the overall cost of painting or staining the cost of materials is much less than labor. I'd rather pay $5-$10 per gallon more top quality than use cheap paint, get cheap results, and have much more labor involved to get decent results.
