    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi zzzz, thanks for your question. While our Direct to Metal paint can be tinted to a copper color, it does not have a metallic finish. Instead, it's best to find a metallic paint from your local hardware store. Have a great day! -Christina

        Paint totally failed during application.
        This paint totally failed. As a professional painter, I sprayed metal roofing panels laying flat during the heat of the day, allowing them to setup before dusk set in nearly three hours later. 15 panels in all. All but three of the panels were set and completely dry to the touch as dusk fell. 77* heat in direct sunlight when sprayed. 65* a half-hour before dusk. The last three panels never dried. By morning, each and every panel had re-hydrated and the paint had ran like it had been sprayed down with a hose. Some of the metal was completely exposed again, and other places had ran, wrinkled, puddled, and bubbled. It was unreal. I was stunned. Complete failure. As a professional painting contractor, I'd never used Behr products before. The paint simply failed to emulsify. I let the panels lay for several days before installing them on the roof, and at that point had no choice but to paint a second coat after installation on the steep-pitched roof itself, after MANY hours of cleaning and prepping the panels for a second coat. I only had a three-hour window that I felt I could safely apply that last coat each day, and a simple one-day installation turned into more than a week as a result. My panels are ruined. I have no idea how well this paint will fare over the months and years ahead. The paint looks like it was applied by a total amateur. This is on an investment project that I own myself. I plan to replace the panels in the spring once the weather clears again due to the lousy finish I've ended up with as a result of this product's failure.

        Hi Pro Painter, thanks for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you had with our Direct to Metal Semi-Gloss Paint. This paint is not deisnged for a roof surface, so I recommend covering it with a roof paint for the most durable finish. Customer satisfaction is very important to us, so feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team directly for further assistance. They are always happy to help. Enjoy the rest of your day. -Christina Behr

        Don’t buy
        Horrible paint. Clogs up sprayer really bad, sales associate said you can thin it and will work with any air gun. Sprayed on brand new metal and it rust leaked right through over night

        Response from BehrAug 29, 2022
        Hi Justin, thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that the Direct to Metal Paint that you purchased kept clogging the sprayer and that the rust showed through overnight. When spraying the Direct to metal paint, it's recommended to use an airless sprayer with a .009 - .017 sized tip. I'd recommend applying another coat of paint to your project to cover over the rust. 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 Behr

        Got Blotches
        IDK about this paint. It goes on smooth as butter. Dries super fast. BUT, after two coats, I can see not only the brush strokes, but it’s blotchy in some areas. I prepped the doors by removing all old paint, sanded & cleaned twice with a good cleaner. Im also using high quality brush & roller. I’m going to put a 3rd coat on & see how that does it. Not sold yet.

          Painted the interior side of my back door. Paint was easy to apply, looks great, and has not chipped yet! The paint does have a strong smell when applying, but that faded quickly with some extra ventilation!

          This is one of the best paints I have ever bought. It covers everything with one coat. Very durable, and easy clean up. I will never buy another paint for metal again, besides this one. Unless Behr comes up with a better one. I totally stand behind the Behr product.

          Used this paint over a rusty but pressure washed metal boat dock frame and cover. It went on easy and looks great. Seems to have really adhered to the old metal well.
