   best to finish the prep properly. main things 
are to prep surfaces so that paint will stick (no 
loose paint, no grease or wax) and also to mask 
things, including all the things no one will 
notice until we start up the spray gun (e.g. the 
top of the electrical storage room, the toilet, 
door knobs...). 
   once the spray gun starts up, it'll be a lot 
of time to stop it for more than a short time, 
so let's get the prep and masking done right so 
we can start up and go till we're finished. 
   note that if there are spots that are not 
sprayed for whatever reason, we can come back 
and fix whatever's the problem and brush paint 
to cover. 
   i'm sure after the first coat we'll discover 
cracks, holes, and other problems that will 
need attention before we put on the second (and 
final) coat. 

   i plan to show up monday around noon. if the 
prep isn't done yet, no problem, i'll help out 
and expect we can start spraying tuesday. 
   again: much better to complete the prep and 
masking rather than start spraying and then 
have to stop (and clean the gun and re-"box" 
paint, etc.
