I really like this paint but It's not 1-coat. On both colors (a light and a dark) I purchased it took 2 coats. Which is why I gave it 4 stars not 5 - but it coats way better than the Premier Sherwin Williams paint I purchased for another area and is a much better price.

True to color, settles to nice finish. Most areas only took one coat to cover (over Kilz). Pleased with results although painting was done in cold temperatures, still dried well.

In my opinion, Behr Marquee paint is the best we have ever used. We recently had the interior of our home painted using Behr Marquee Semi-Gloss Enamel for the trim work and Behr Marquee Satin for the walls. We chose Feng Sui, a pale green, for our master bedroom and bath; and Pottery Wheel, a tan color, for our breakfast room and living room. We used a lighter color for our hallway, guest bath, and guest room. Our house looks beautiful. Coverage over a darker color only required one coat of paint and the same color over a lighter color gave the same color result. I would definitely recommend Behr Marquee paints.

I do not have a problem with the paint. My wife selected a wrong color (tint) and so since it was white semi-gloss, I was hoping we could re-tint to a different color. I was told they cannot and so, could we return the product and replace it with a different color with a discounted price or whatever? please advise if not it would be a lot of waste on our part. It did not match our existing color. Please advise and happy new year.

We have used many different paints that claim to cover in one coat. This one delivered. We painted over a bedroom that was a bright red and is now a dark beige. One coat and just over one gallon of paint. The photos speak for themselves.... Great paint and a very satisfied customer!

I have used Marquee a few times and have always had great results. This time it was to paint my guess bathroom to give it a new year make over. The color made it pop and was done with one coat. Now just looking to replace the mirror

Not always sure if stepping up to the Marquee is worth the extra money. Color we went with Light French Gray. We used it in a kitchen. The semi-gloss definitely shows the imperfections on the walls.

I came in to get 5 gallons of paint for my project. I was told that Marquee didn't come in a 5-gallon container, and I would have to get 5 one-gallon cans. I did not want to do this, because of concerns that the color wouldn't match across the 5 cans, but the paint person told me the computer matching was perfect. It was FAR from perfect. One can ruined the whole job. I had to pay the painter $200 extra to re-do the sections with the bad paint. I am very disappointed.

Hi Renoscarab,

Thank you for review, and I am sorry to hear one of the cans came out a different color than the rest. I can assure you this isn't the experience we want any of our customers to have. Since there were 5 single gallons cans, it would have been to intermixed them to get a uniform color. Sometimes the color can vary from can to can. I am sorry you were told differently, and to help with this, please reach out to us directly; we'd love the opportunity to turn this experience around for you. -Edith Behr

Hi Job,

Thank you for your review, and I am sorry to hear you didn't receive the expected coverage. This paint should cover in one coat when going over a previously painted/primed surface, and when using a color from our One Coat Collection. I am concerned this wasn't the case and would like to get the color name and ID used. To do so, I'd urge you to contact us; we can then look into turning this experience around for you. -Edith Behr

True one coat. A bit extra but beats primer and multiple coats. Saves time and money. We put it on walls that had original 20 year old paint that you could almost see drywall through. Looks amazing! Now if the rest of the remodel were this easy.

Great Price on a Great Product. I normally use Sherwin Williams paint for every. But, this new Marquee is very nice. The colors are awesome and the coverage is really one coat. Be careful to get your first coat straight as your not going to want to re-coat as the paint will get heave. I would also say only try to spray this product, as this product doesn't like to move after contact, you will leave pull/brush marks super quickly. I use one gallon for the font of my house no problem, it will spray super nicely. The paint looks awesome and the get super hard. I finish the paint in a couple hours, and finish touches on a separate day. Compared to other projects, I will certain use this exterior paint again - it's super excellent paint. Using this paint saved me alot of time and money.

    I have painted my wall 4 times and it still shows roller Mark's. They where nice at helping me get more paint to fix the problem. I asked for tips on why it was doing this and I tried all there tips but none have worked. Dont buy this paint if you are going to do a big wall with semi gloss. It covered the paint underneath after 2 coats not one.

    Hi Terr,
    Thanks for taking the time to review our Marquee Paint. I'm sorry to hear about the coverage and roller marks you experienced with it. If multiple coats don't help alleviate the roller marks, then the surface may need to be primed and sealed with a separate product. Something like our Multi-Surface Primer would work well:
    https://thd.co/2MCaqqE
    This will help to seal the surface to prevent the previous marks and color from showing through. After the surface has been primed, another coat of Marquee Paint can be used. If you'd like, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care Department for any questions or assistance with your project. Have a good rest of your day, and thanks again for your feedback - Vince Behr

    When I decided to paint my kitchen an dining room I wanted to cut out as many steps as possible so I wanted to buy really high quality paint, this was my first experience with behr marquee an I will never use anything else! It goes on smooth, no need to use a primer first because the primer is in the paint, it went on glossy an I only needed one coat, I highly recommend this product

    This paint is terrible. I bought two gallons of this stuff to paint my kitchen and it definitely did not cover the previous paint in one coat, not even two. It felt like I was using glue. The kitchen was a light stone and Behr couldn’t even cover it. This paint is not worth the price. Went and bought Valspar to repaint the kitchen.

    Hi Mslaw24,

    Thanks for your review. I'm sorry to have that you didn't get the coverage you were expecting! Our Marquee Interior paint like should cover your previously painted surfaces in one coat when tinted to a color from our One-Coat Color palette. For further assistance with your project, please feel free to reach out to us directly. - Sara Behr

      It is a great paint and I've used it throughout my house, but you still have to use two coats if you are painting over a dark color. I've used this product for over 4 years and have never had a problems with it. Doesn't fade, peel, and washes easily. I will continue to use BEHR Marquee in my house.

      This review is for the BEHR Marquee 1 gal. Ultra Pure White Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior Paint and Primer in One I have used Behr paint for decades with good results, and I will have to say this Marquee is the worst paint I have ever used. I have also used Super Spec with zero problems. Forget about the one coat thing. I am doing a project with eleven interior doors. The first coat you could clearly see all of the wood color underneath. The second coat is where the problems really begin. The second coat paint is actually re activated the first coat which caused the brush to drag and show the wood underneath again. That is after allowing it to dry 24 hours. This also caused a series of runs that seemed to sprout out of nowhere. I could not keep up with them. Then the two coats just look like a goo mess. Now my project looks like a third grade class painted the doors during recess. You probably heard me yelling at the paint, nooooooo stop running. Three gallons and a hundred fifty bucks later, I am probably going to have to sand them down and start over with some other paint. Thank goodness this was not a for hire job as this would be quite an embarrassing situation.

      Hello 1Depotreviewer,
      Thanks for taking the time to review our Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior Paint and Primer in One. I’m sorry to hear it didn’t meet your coverage expectations. I know how disappointing it is to spend unplanned time and money on a project. I can assure you it’s not the experience we want any of our customers to have. The One-Coat hide is guaranteed when painting over a previously coated surface and when choosing a color from the guaranteed color collection. Under application and colors outside of the collection can lead to additional coats. I recommend allowing the coating to dry and then apply the product with a high-quality brush in a straight line, moving at a pace that will prevent the paint from dripping below the brush. Work in strokes 12-16 inches (30-40 cm) long. Avoid stopping and starting in the middle of stroke lengths. It is important to maintain a wet edge to prevent brush marks. Do not brush back into any painted surface more than a couple of minutes after applying it. For further assistance, please feel free to reach out directly to our customer care team. We’d love to help! Best, Roxana N. Behr
