Q:I'm trying to paint over a medium-dark interior wall with an off-white Behr Dynasty that definitely does NOT cover in 1 coat as advertised. Would it be less expensive and a better idea all-around to use this primer, rather than 2 coats of Dynasty?
by|Mar 28, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi there, thanks for the question. Sorry to hear that the Dynasty Paint isn't covering in one coat. Our Dynasty Paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface. Even if you prime the surface it's possible two coats of the paint will be needed depending on the color that you're using. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance; our customer care team is happy to help you! -Ronald

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi RalphPR, thanks for your question. Yes, our Multi-Surface Primer can be used under oil-based paint. Primers are the exception to the water/oil rule and can be used with either. Have a great day! -Christina

      Q:Can I use this on vinyl siding?

      Answer This Question

      A:  Hi John, thanks for the question. You can use our Interior/Exterior Multi-Surface Primer to prime vinyl siding. If the siding is smooth, I'd recommend scuff-sanding the surface first to help with the adhesion of the primer. Have a great day! -Ronald

        Q:Can Multi-Surface Stain-Blocking Primer be used to prime over clean & sound polyester, aliphatic urethane polyurea coating on an exterior deck floor? Specifically, Life brand SD221?
        by|Mar 17, 2023
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi rtsd, thank you for your question. Typically, our primers are recommended on uncoated wood or concrete deck floors. Priming over the Life Brand deck may not be necessary. Before proceeding with the project, you can test for adhesion in a small inconspicuous area. Have a great day! -Giovanna

          Quality Primer For Sure!
          Used on new veneer plastered walls and ceilings in my new above garage master bed/bath/office suite addition. Also on partially plastered (seams & screw holes) blueboard walls/ceiling in my garage which were fire taped for code/safety. Prior to painting I used heavy duty fans to assist in the drying of the plaster for 1-2 weeks before applying this primer. I did 2 coats everywhere. This primer went on easily and adhered to the plaster walls way better than I expected. Would and will use again.

            Great primer
            Great primer, covers nicely even with just one layer, much better with two. Basically, no-odor which makes the job much manageable and easier, dries fast and the white in it is as beautifully bright as the white paint. Very happy with this primer.

            Best exterior primer I've used.
            I've used this # 436 Primer for years on various applications, and am amazed at how well it adheres. I once applied it to (plastic) house wrap that I had used temporarily on a leaky roof. The primer was still adhering when I removed the wrap 2 years later. For another application where the final colour was to be a middle grey, I got Home Depot to tint the batch a light grey (as dark as they would tint it). The can label used to say "Exterior"; this latest one now says "Interior/Exterior". Only complaint: The label's safety and usage directions are in a small font that's hard to read. Improvement sorely needed.

            For the most part cover over my God awful stripes. But used a lot more primer than anticipated to cover them. Some places you can still see shadow of them 17 foot area took 2/3 of a gallon. Said usage should be 250 - 400 sq ft.

            I painted 186 feet of 6 foot high block wall surrounding my property using a brush and roller to get a heavy coat that would last. This paint covered real well on this course block only taking about 13 gallons in total.

            This white primer with its stain blocking and sealing power did the trick. After multiple children and more years of food stains, which “somehow” got on the walls, we needed something more than ordinary paint for the walls. The primer went on and stayed on the walls allowing me to paint a new fresh color in the kitchen. We no longer see the stains, only the texture which came through nicely

            Used this over a basement foundation block wall with a fiber reinforced coating (Silpro's FSB is the absolute best version of this product, BTW, while twice the cost of Sakrete or Quickwall it is easier to apply and much harder when cured). The wall had been patched so it was rough in many places.BUT IT WAS GREY and is about to become my pottery studio. A single coat of this primer already transformed the space amazingly despite the unevenness of the coating. It has minimal odor, and with a 3/4 nap roller went on well. Dries fast too. The roughness of my walls required a lot of back-rolling, and I was tempted to put on a second coat and call it done. Reading the questions about leaving the primer without a topcoat deterred me - it was suggested that it will hold dirt & dust, and be harder to clean than a paint with some sheen. Behr does not recommend leaving it without a finish coat either. I had no problems with cleanup - warm water and dish soap with a painters cleanup comb/brush worked just fine. In fact if you invest in some orange turpenes (food grade) it cleans all paints off skin without problems and no chemical exposure.

              Behr paints are great. I used to use another brand before I moved to GA in 2002. Since then, I have used Behr paints exclusively on two houses; Interior and exterior.
