I used Sherwin Williams Quali-kote primer for my recent drywall project. There are a few spots that I dripped/splatted and a few smalls areas I need to touch up. Can I use 150-grit drywall sand paper to sand these areas down or is there something better recommended?

Just asking before I try and make a mess. :cool:

Yes you can sand them but depending on the drip, they don't always sand well. If this is the case, scrape off the offending spots, and cover with spackling or joint compound, sand and prime when dry.
