Questions and Answers for BEHR MARQUEE 5 gal. #220E-1 Tantalizing Tan Matte Interior Paint & Primer

A:  Hi John, thanks for the question. Yes, our Marquee Paint can be tinted into all of our colors. If the paint is already tinted, it isn't recommended to add any additional tint, because if too much tint is added, it could cause performance issues with the paint. Have a great day! -Ronald

A:  Hi Jeff, thanks for the question. Yes, our Marquee Paint does have a mildew-resistant coating to help keep mold and mildew from growing on the paint film. It would be a great choice for your basement. Have a great day! -Ronald

A:  Yes.

A:  Hi Lynn, thanks for your question. Flat and matte are not the same finish. Flat is the lowest sheen with the least amount of gloss, while matte is one sheen level above flat. Hope this info helps! -Christina

A:  Hi Bill, thanks for the question. Yes, our Marquee Ultra Pure White is a good choice for ceilings. We also have our Marquee Ceiling Paint in Ultra Pure White which is a great choice as well. Good luck with painting your ceiling! -Ronald

A:  Hi JoeM, thank you for your question. Typically, cabinets are done with high sheens for the best protection, durability, and scrubbability. You can use a semi-gloss finish and that will dry to a hard and glossy finish, so a topcoat would not be necessary. However, you have the option of using a water-based polyurethane if you'd like. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

A:  Hi there, thank you for reaching out. As it turns out, we do not recommend our products for foam surfaces, as this can lead to issues with the performance, durability, and lifespan of the coating. I recommend reaching out to your local Home Depot for more information about an alternative product that will work for your project. -Lina

A:  Hi Pralay, thank you for your question. The Marquee Paint is water-based, and you can thin with water (up to 8 oz. per gallon) when spraying with an airless sprayer. However, if the paint was stored and it is too thick now, and stirring for a few minutes does not help, then I do not recommend using it anymore or adding water to it. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance. Our customer care team is happy to help! -Giovanna

A:  Hi kenbro, thank you for your question. The Marquee Paint does not require a topcoat. However, you have the option of using a water-based polyurethane for added protection. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

A:  Hi Alycia, thank you for your question. Our Marquee Paint is a water-based product. Have a great day! -Giovanna

A:  Hi Nora, thanks for your question. Our Marquee paint is self-priming and doesn't require a separate primer. However, keep in mind that this paint only guarantees one-coat coverage when applied over a primed or previously coated surface and tinted to a color from our One-Coat Color Collection. I suggest checking out our Multi-Surface Primer to seal the bare wood if you want to get one-coat coverage from our Marquee paint. Hope this helps! -Christina
