Painting Poplar
#12
I used PPG's Breakthrough! 250VOC.  It dries hard and fast.  It dries so fast that you are advised to filter it each time you load a spray gun.  If brushing (which I have not tried) it is recommended that you apply quickly.

Note:  The VOC 50 is not recommended for cabinets. 

Also note that when I primed with a shellac based primer it caused the paint to craze.  PPG claims "excellent adhesion to most substrates" and I have found that no primer is required.

The fast drying is a huge plus for me.   You can re-coat in 20 minutes and install in 3 hours.  Other finishes can take 24 hours to 2 weeks to cure enough to install.
