Grabbed my Purdy brush to test the Jet White Satin Paint on a DIY Children's Alpine Playhouse. It's over ten years old. Tearing it down is on a list of my to-do's. If a fresh coat of paint can extend the life of our playhouse, I can cross that off this year's list.
The house front was washed. It only took a few minutes to paint the house and door centers with this thick Jet White paint. The door and window trim was painted with Jet White Semi Gloss.
The Floral wood panel on the door is from an architecture graveyard. It was cracked. The Satin covered the cracks in one coat, although it was already white.
Having only viewed the paint color chip, I thought it would be less white. It matched the trim color on our house, that's vanilla white.
Coverage was sufficient to cover cracks in aged wood.
It was searing, I was dehydrated, got lightheaded amd dropped some paint on the walkway. It dries very fast. I don't consider it an easy clean up paint because of that.
I won't paint our house this time of the year because of daily afternoon rains. This dries fast enough for short projects like the playhouse.
It will take a year for me to see if this lives up to the advanced fade performance claim. I'm looking forward to using it on the house when daily rains let up!

Great product
Marquee is good, but, It is on the runny side and is priced a little to high.

It is a good hearty paint. I didn’t think it would cover in one coat, but it absolutely did. The color was the exact bright beautiful color we wanted. I’ve only applied it recently, and have high expectations that the UV protection in the paint will help prevent the color from fading as quickly.

MARRQUEE Paint on aluminum siding
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The results of using MARRQUEE Paint on aluminum siding is above my expectations. I only use one coat that covered all sidings and this saved lots of time for just a little bit more payment for paint. It is dry very quickly and Satin paint is the better choice than flat paint since it has stronger surface against moisture and molds. I am glade that I made the right choice for the BEHR MARQUEE Exterior Satin Enamel. For spending a little bit more money you saved lots of labor with this one coat product.

great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had my house painted three years ago and it still looks brand new. I live in a very hot climate and haven't experienced any fading. Looks great. Some of my neighbors have stopped by and ask where I got my paint and what color of paint I used. Thank you for having a great product.

Great coverage
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used the marquee in a dark navy blue. The coverage was great. Only had to do one coat. It’s a thicker consistency that took some getting used to the first few rolls

So good I had to review
I’ve used a lot of paint over the years and it did its job, covered what I was painting. This paint is exceptionally good. It’s thick and creamy, goes on well enough that applicator marks are filled. Painted the exterior of my house 10+years ago and the only touch ups needed until now were dings. I have exterior fascia boards needing a touch up, so I found my leftover paint and pulled it out. It was about 7 inches of “oil” and 2 inches of thick sludge. 10 minutes of stirring and good as new

Historical Renovation
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Behr Marquee paint truly exceeded my expectations while restoring our old historical house. The rich, vibrant colors and exceptional coverage breathed new life into the worn, weathered walls, preserving the home's timeless charm while providing a modern, flawless finish. It covers the old wood great after spending 2 weeks scraping off the old paint. The paint's durability and stain resistance have been amazing. I couldn't be happier with the results—Behr Marquee is worth every penny and more. Ten stars!

Just a little shinier than expected for a satin. The house looks good though and I believe this will last a few years. My contracter swears by Behr and said satin is the best choice for Florida climates. He had no problem with application so we are both happy.

Been using Behr on our house for over 30 years....Firsst tried Sherwin Williams and after about 7 years we noticed fading of the exterior colors when we tried to touch up the paint. You would expect some fading due to sun but we also noticed interior walls were not a as bright and colorful....We switched to Behr at about the ten year mark and repainted everything in and out and couldn't be happier. NO FADING!
