    I run a Frakenbrew in mine. Not entirely sure what the current scraps are. I thInk it's mostly Valvoline Maxlife blend 10w30 with a dash of Valvoline 0w20 and 0w16. Oh, I did recently add some M1 5w20 leftovers to it. Forgot about that. Any motor oil scraps go in. The one exception is my Valvoline Maxlife Full Synthetic. I save that for the Taco and the Yaris and any makeup oil I need for the fleet I take care of. If I feel like the mixture is getting a little thin I'll throw in some cheap Warren 10w40 to bolster it.

    Have a mower that needs an oil change and I need to add some 50 weight Harley oil to thicken it up just a tad..

    Years ago I had a small engine mechanic tell me that occasionally checking and changing the oil in a small engine was more important than than what you put in it. No since in wasting good oil. So in the "mower" jug it goes. I use it in my mower, pressure washer and any small engines I service for other people.....and that damn Hyundai Sante Fe that drinks oil like a proper Irishman on a Friday night

    How many sq ft? Doing our 1800 didn't take too long once we got the rhythm down. I'll also say we didn't have to prime or do the ceilings.

    Roughly 1200. The primer I'm using is kinda spendy and I got to do every wall and ceiling in the place. :annoyed:

    I've found the walls and ceiling are so embedded in nicotine that even scrubbing them it comes right back out so I gotta add the priming step. Also am priming and painting all the wooden trim in the house. It's the plain ol 713 smooth base that's currently stained. Alot of it is all dinged and nicked up it's easier just to prime and paint it.
