Behr Noir Paint
Not blackest black, definitely dries lighter but keep in mind it IS Chalk paint still looked amazing at end. Finish with wax and sealed perfectly. Did apply a primer for this project and Behr Chalk paint using Wagner Flexio Spray gun and had no issues. This whole project only need half a can.

      I was able to get my piece of furniture done. I use this paint with water to create a wash over a baby blue chalk paint and then waxed with clear wax. It turned out nice.

      First time trying Bher Chalk Paint
      I have used other chalk brands and decided to try this project with Bher, due only to the convenience of picking up a can quickly. I was nervous after reading some reviews, but tried anyway. Pleasantly surprised, it was easy to work with and the project turned out great!

        DO NOY BUY!!
        I have been using Annie Sloan for years but tried this becaise of a late last minute project. It would not stick and beaded up. This is the worst paint I have ever worked with. Do noy buy, you will waste your time.

        Hi Jenn, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you experienced. It is not normal for the paint to bead up and not adhere properly. As long as the surface was sound, clean, and dry, it should adhere and we would like to learn more details about your project to find the best way to help. Please reach out to us directly. Our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Giovanna Behr

          Not Black!
          Noir is “black” in French. This is GRAY - nowhere near black. Went on and dried nicely but it’s now going to be my basecoat. What a waste of $$

            Initially I had some reservations about purchasing this paint. I’ve use a much more expensive brand. Oh my gosh this paint is amazing. Just as easy to use. No prep whatsoever so ever. I painted the lower half of a 30 year old ball and claw oak table. Sanded areas the next day to give it the look I wanted. Perfect. Will absolutely buy again.

            Chalk Paint by Behr is the best!
            I love that I can paint just about any piece of furniture and make it new, at an amazing price point. Most of my furniture is found/free. I apply three coats, and then three coats of Helmsman Spar Urethane and the furniture is brand new again. Pictured is Jojoba. I honestly think the other negative reviews are white base and people didn’t get them tinted properly. You have to ask the paint people to mix the color you choose or maybe the paint dept. people didn’t mix it properly. Just my $.02

              Farmhouse white was not the color shown
              The farmhouse white was basically just plain white. It looked nothing like the picture shown so now I just have a plain white end table which doesn’t match my theme.

                Easy to work with. Painted 2 pieces of bedroom furniture and still have 1/2 can left. Used Valspar antiquing wax over it to make it a little darker and give it some depth.

                I am a complete convert!
                I have bought chalk paint from all of the big manufacturers, as well as made my own. But at this price point, and with the ability to do any color I want, this is the BEST. The quality seems to be fantastic and easy to work with. And I love how my first project turned out. I will be buying all the colors :-).

                  Love the color surf
                  This color is gorgeous. It’s a very happy color and intense too. In my first project pictured I did a bathroom tower. It totally made my bathroom a more happy place I love it. I did 2 coats. 3 coats would of made the color richer but I thought it would be too much for me , I suffer from depression. The tv stand came out beautiful. And it was black glass!! The paint stuck to it with no problem and dried fast!! I did 2 coats. Took me almost 1 quart to do both projects. The paint is perfection.

                    Almost Trash
                    I had an old vanity that I was originally going to throw in the trash. I decided to give this chalk paint a try and I am so glad I did! It came out beautifully! The paint was so easy to use, and clean up was a breeze!

                    Best Chalk paint I have used. I used it on my cabinets. Easy application, easy clean up and after applying the wax it is durable.
                    I recently purchased a chalk paint from another company and I prefer Behr over the other. It spreads very nice easy clean up and the color was perfect. I was nervous about ordering a color on line I am so happy it was perfect.

                    Ivory Palace shade
                    Gave 2 stars, because the shade Ivory palace is as white as you can only imagine. Not the shade that it shows in the picture. Like the quality of the paint. But really puzzled how to pick the creamy shade as the pictures are not accurate.

                      Such a beautiful color!
                      I am so happy with the color! I did a glossy polyurethane top coat just to seal it in and it looks great!

                      Subtle brown beautiful eggshell
                      Its a beautiful shade to mix match. My left wall has color code - “Armadillo” and front wall with door is “dry brown” shade. Combination was perfect. Eggshell finish sealed the deal.

                        Lovely paint
                        This paint is amazing! I chose the Creme De Mint color. I had two mirrored pieces that I was tired of looking at. I went to my local Home Depot ready to have to get primer etc. and the very nice salesperson was like no you don’t need a primer. I took the product home in disbelief and the results are astonishing. I only did 2 coats, took me about 3 hours total and I’m in love. I cannot believe the paint stuck to these mirrored pieces but it did. Lovely color, dries FAST, easy to use

                          Behr Chalk paint
                          The behr premium chalk paint is very good. I liked the adhesion of the paint with minimal sanding. Also the versatility of having the color mixed to your preference.the price point is much cheaper than most other chalk paints

                          Goes On So Fast and Easy -Love It
                          This is the second time I've used a chalk paint for furniture, and the first time I used Behr brand. I love this paint for many reasons. 1. I wanted a hint of grey color which was not available in the premixed selection, so I chose the Behr color" Halation" and was able to have it mixed for me. Just what I wanted. 2. I tried a brush, foam applicator, and a 4" foam roller and chose the roller. I was amazed at how fast and easy the paint went on, and loved the slight texture that the roller left behind. The finish left no lines or stroke marks like with a brush. 3. Easy to seal. I used a water based polyurethane instead of wax because I wanted a longer lasting and more durable finish. 3. Goes on so easily, I was able to paint 2 bureaus with 2 coats in one day. I left the top dark wood and painted the rest of the bureaus. 4. Very good coverage and Fast dry time. I did thoroughly wash and lightly sand the finish before painting so the adhesion was very good. I did not sand between coats because I liked the slight textured look and feel. If you want a very smooth surface I recommend sanding between coats. This is not a one coat paint. I used 2 coats and it covered very well over dark wood. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to update a piece of furniture. It really is so easy to use and had great coverage.
