Customer Reviews for BEHR 1 gal. #MS-06 Matador Flat Interior/Exterior Masonry, Stucco and Brick Paint

I was told by a Home Depot paint specialist that this paint was better for stucco than the Behr ultra and decided to try it. What a mistake as it seems to be poor quality paint that bubbles in the can and on the wall. I would switch to a higher quality paint but already painted the front of my house. I am not sure what to do? I also am concerned about it fading as I hear the fading properties on this paint are not as good as their other lines. I would have paid more if I knew this before painting. I also am surprised by the poor quality control on labeling as the helpline number on the can was incorrect and missing 4 digits. If Behr can’t get the label right how are they going to get the paint right? Please don’t buy.

Absolutely lovely!!

I painted my exterior stucco about 7 years ago and I began noticing the color change after about the first year. Fast forward to today and the color on my stucco looks completely different than it did when I first painted the house. I know color fades but I’ve never seen paint change as drastically as mine has. What started out as a tan color is now a grayish purplish color. It honestly looks like someone painted our house a different color.

Paint applied and covered well. I repainted my cinderblock foundation. I used the matte white and it looks fabulous and bright! I am curious how it will hold up to weather/dirt overtime! Definitely recommend a good roller!

This product really is worth the money. I used it to finish lower part of my home. Cement, over stucco, bricks, even wood around my garage. This works on any surface.

We apply this paint to the borders of our asphalt driveway. It pops with color and withstands the salt, snow and tire treads well! We re coat one time per year to keep the layers building! It will peel a bit and get marks from tired, but overall with a little yearly maintenance this product is good. If you were to apply and use as suggested I’m sure it would last a long time!

I applied it on a Brick chimney and foundation concrete. Was very happy with the results. Don’t know how long it will last but really changed the look of our house in a good way.

As for shipping, the paint showed up a couple days before the quoted day. I used a Wagner Flexio 590 to spray it on our stucco garage. The paint did not need to be thinned out, it went through the sprayer with no problem. The paint covered great (it went over white) along with a couple dark spots. The color matched what was shown online. Nothing shows through once it dried. I would definitely get this again.

After a lot of scraping, wire brush work and power washing I painted a beat up old cinder block wall. (Used the primer first.) It looks good and seems like it’s going to hold up. Time will tell.

So far this exterior Paint holds up to the hard winters in the north east Wonderful product by Behr company

Paint holds up great summer and winter , cement shingles

Great Home Depot shipping. This paint is very good. I use it for my exterior house fundation and my front brick stairs. Paint lasts a long time. Been using this Product for years.

The paint was exactly what I wanted. I am so pleased with the results. I would recommend this to everyone.

I have used this product twice on my home.... about 7 years ago and then, 7 years before that. All of the surface for the off-white color is on stucco. The stucco is mostly over concrete block. The main problem seems to be that after a few years, the paint turns chalky (I do not have that problem with the red brick color paint over the wood painted portions). On this second time, the paint is not quite as chalky. With the hurricane situation here in Florida and the chalkiness of the finish, I think I need to paint, again. This is getting to be too much for a 72 year old!!! And, this will probably be the last time I can ever paint the whole home. This time, I need to find another and/or better BEHR or find another recommended brand, it takes almost 15 gallons. This paint did not meet my expectations.

This was a wonderful experience! I’m so very grateful for this option! Love the paint and great customer service!

This paint worked our great. Just wish I could of got a off white or something not so white. Worked out great though. Easy to use.

I recently purchased 10 gallons of this paint to paint the exterior of my home. Only needed 5 gallons to do the job. However, the deep base paint was desirable to cover the masonry work that was done and do the brinks on my porch. It is a poor product. Paint harden to the touch on the exterior of the home after 2 coats. Contractor stopped to have it harden before doing the last touch up. He hasn't done the last touch up as of yet. However, the paint didn't do its job. The concrete shows through the paint and then started pealing off two days later. When that happened, I used the last of the 5 gallon paint for a test. I painted my bricks to see the results on the porch. As you can see from the picture after 2 coats. It didn't do a good job at all. It seems you have to paint it 4 or 6 times to get the results you want. For a 20 year guarantee, its a waste of time and money. My contractor is coming up soon to redo the work again but I will take the other 5 gallon back and see if we can get another paint that is better. Sadly, disappointed of this product and didn't meet the expectations at all.

When it's dry it looks very smooth and rich.

We used this paint for our brick fireplace. It took a couple coats but we are pleased with the result!

We just finished painting our brick fireplace and I. Love. It. We went with the flat sheen. Beautiful. Almost a chalky-soft finish. We used a paint sprayer and didn't have to thin the paint at all. We tinted it just the teensy-est bit because it was just a smidge on the yellow side for our liking. Our walls are a very stark white so you could really tell in our room. Our fireplace basically covers an entire wall. Probably 12 feet wide and 5 feet tall if I had to guess. We used 2 gallons. Overall, I highly recommend this paint. I would use it again.

I had a custom color made to paint the foundation of our house. Looks amazing. A quick fix for a major transformation! I’m an obsessed Behr paint fan.

The product went on easily and covered in two coats. It totally transformed the exterior of our home taking it from drab to fab. Will definitely recommend this product to everyone.

Just painted the outside stairwell over the weekend using Behr Masonry, Stucco & Brick paint. This paint was the quality that I expect from Behr. Since the surface is very uneven with lots of irregularities in the concrete, even with a roller cover designed for rough surfaces, it took a long time to complete the job. That was by no means the paints fault. I did put two coats on to make sure that I had complete coverage and the 2nd coat went on much faster than the first. The picture shows the finished job and took about 1.75 gallons.

Product worked well being applied to brick and mortar as a first time application. Coverage was excellent and clean up using water worked well.

Behr's Masonry, Stucco & Brick Paint is from my experience THE PRODUCT of CHOICE! There is a huge variety of colors to chose from (my color of choice is Navajo White). It has been 5 years since I had applied this stucco paint to my house and the color still looks great! I was repairing the cracks to my stucco house to prevent it from further weather conditions and during this process I began to use Behr's Stucco paint; it has done wonders to be both reliable and durable over the years. Absolutely, I recommend this product to anybody who does stucco work. In fact, my current project is building a stucco fence which is a 790 lineal feet. I am going to use Behr's Stucco Paint and of course I am one satisfied customer.

Applied to rough concrete surface, used a concrete roller, good coverage easy to apply.

Awesome product! When you apply this brick paint, it looks like the paint is part of the brick. I've seen home improvement shows where they used interior house paint on a fireplace and it did not look good. It looked like layers of paint sitting on top of the brick. They should have used brick paint! I really like how the brick paint brightens up my fireplace and living room.

The best paint for stucco

Covers in one coat even smooth coating. Plenty of color options. Great for covering the foundation.
