Hi Elizabeth - Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you needed to apply two coats for full coverage! Our Marquee Interior paint line was designed to cover your previously painted or primed surfaces in one coat when tinted to a color from our One-Coat Color Collection, and I'm concerned that you needed to apply an additional coat. We'd like to learn more about your project and assist you with this. Please feel free to reach out to us directly - we hope to hear from you! - Sara
