Edit: I’m mostly annoyed at the patchiness of the color. I don’t mind the visible brush strokes (all the doors and trim in the house have this at a lesser level).

I put on two coats of Zinsser 1-2-3 primer, and two coats of Clark and Kensington Premium Interior (from Ace Hardware) on an unfinished Hampton Bay (Home Depot) upper wall cabinet to put above the toilet.

I didn’t need anything fancy and I wanted a low-stakes situation to try painting. But… I wasn’t expecting the results to be this bad! Why am I getting all that streaking/patchiness? The top coat is a couple of years old, but it didn’t smell and I used a drill attachment to stir thoroughly before using.
