Do you use products you dislike to finish them?

Depends on why I dislike the product, but in general, no, I don’t. I’d rather pass it on to someone who might like it, since the cost is sunk either way and I have more products than I could ever finish in 400 lifetimes, so it doesn’t make sense to “suffer” in an area that I don’t need...
