    I found the Behr Marquee to be smooth and easy to apply. I applied two coats to create a back splash in my kitchen, that also works as an accent. I decided to use this as a boarder around my cabinet doors and for all the edges of the drawer faces, too. Mother nature is delaying the final finishing work, but it looks fantastic.

    I bought 1 gallon of this product. It was true to its word 1 coat. I love using Behr paints and will always be my 1st choice go to product. I needed to paint a 10 x 13 room & I still have a little over a half gallon left over.

      Behr is the best!
      I purchased a home a year and a half ago and had no idea what I was doing when it comes to painting. Everyone I know recommended Behr and now I do too. The colors are absolutely amazing. The Marquee will cover anything you need. Lifetime customer for all my painting projects.

        I love this finish
        I bought this Bher Ultra Scuff Defence paint & primer for my guest bath vanity. I am in love with the outcome. It looks like a factory finish. I wish I would've used this paint for my kitchen cabinets. I used Emerald from SW. I'm not thrilled with the finish, at all. I would definitely purchase and refer anyone looking for paint. You will not be disappointed. A definite quality product.

          LUMPY PAINT
          The paint was bought just a few days before use, well stirred and when poured was full of lumps. One lump the size of a golf ball. Paint had to be strained to be able to use it, We wasted about 1/4 of the can. We will not buy BEHR paints again.

          Hi Schrop,

          Thank you for reviewing Behr Marquee Paint. I'm terribly sorry to hear about the lumpy consistency experienced, as that's very abnormal and never what we want our customers to go through. Customer satisfaction is very important to us, and I encourage you to contact Behr directly for further assistance.

          Kindest regards,

          Doris Behr

            This was suppose to be top of the line paint. I t pealed off when the border tape was removed. It did not cover well in one coat. I painted two bathrooms and because of results I returned 2nd gallon and bought Sherman Williams for third bathroom

            Hi DAVID,

            Thank you for reviewing Behr Marquee Paint. I'm very sorry to hear about the coverage and peeling with tape removal issues experienced, as it certainly isn't typical or what we want our customers to go through.

            We recommend removing painter's tape at a 45-degree angle while the paint is still wet. If the paint dries before the tape is removed, it's best to score it off gently with a box cutter/X-acto knife.

            Marquee has a One-Coat Color Collection that guarantees full coverage in a single coat when applied to a primed/painted surface. Colors outside of the One-Coat Color Collection may require multiple coats. As it turns out, Ultra Pure White is not a one-coat color.

            Please contact Behr's Customer Care Department for further assistance with this matter. We'd love to find a way to help.

            Kindest regards,

            Doris Behr

            This product covers like no other. For the money, this is THE best paint. I’ve been paining for 35+ years. However, these plastic lids are THE worst. They don’t go back on evenly. Can’t imagine 5 years from now when a customer decides to open the can for a quick touch up and cannot get the back on AT ALL. It’s a joke Facebook.com/JeffsPaintingElmhurst

            Best paint I have EVER used!
            I LOVE THIS PAINT. Its thick and creamy so I suggest and good woven brush that won't shed. This was indeed one coat coverage and went on with absolutely no problems. Not sure about the other person that said he needed three coats. That was most definitely user error. It had to be. Behr Marqee is the only paint I will ever buy from now on. I bought Limosine Leather in Matte. GORGEOUS black that does not make my room look too small or cave like. Love, love, love!

              The paint was used in two different applications. Both look great. I used it over pale yellow in a faux application and painted the hallway to the bedrooms with Circus Peanut. The effects were dramatic and stunning. I would highly recommend this paint.

              Loved at first but then something happened
              Was very happy when I put the first and second coat of this paint on. When my sister touched up the paint with a brand new gallon when drying it dried a different shade of blue which left me to repaint my walls again and it’s still drying different. At the end not very happy. Don’t know how the same paint from Home Depot dries differently. Very annoyed

                This is not a one coat product. For my project,I had to go over the wall twice. I was striping my wall and the paint peeled off as I was removing the tape. I am not pleased with this product. I am going over the areas where it peeled. And I have ALWAYS used Behr.

                Hi Batgyrl, thank you for your review, and I am sorry about the coverage and peeling issue. This paint should cover in one coat when going over a previously painted/primed area, and when using a color from our One-Coat Collection. Also, when removing the tape, it would be best to take it off when the coating is still wet. To fix the peeling, sand any of the affected areas and reapply the paint. To help with this, please reach out to us directly; we'd be more than happy to help. -Edith Behr
                  Great color
                  I bought 2 gallons of this paint color to paint my bedroom. It is a little lighter than I was expecting but it still looks amazing.

                    Grey with purple undertones
                    This is a beautiful color. It is good to note that there is purple undertones so if you are looking for straight grey then this is not for you. I enjoy this color. It's still neutral but will look grey in some lights and purple in others.

                      I purchased two 5-gallon buckets of this paint thinking it was going to save me time even though I was going to cost a premium. Paint was no good and I had to do three coats of the Grey and the White, and I even had to buy an extra gallon to finish the job. This took me twice as long to complete my painting I recommend using PPG Timeless paint if you are looking for a one coat paint because the Beur Marquee does not work as describe.

                      Hello, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you did not get good coverage. Our Marquee interior paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance, our customer care team is happy to help you! -Giovanna Behr

                      Refurbished Night tables and this paint really is great! Dried quickly and application was easy. I did use several coats as I wanted to smooth finish and did this with a brush as opposed to a roller or sprayer. Highly recommend.

                      Love! The perfect alternative to plain navy wall.
                      Bought this for an accent wall in a bedroom. Couldnt be happier. Provides depth and intensity and looks great in all light.

                        Easy on, one coat is just perfect. Easy off if you get some on yourself (like I usually do). Cleans off well on brushes as well. Walls wipe nicely if something gets on it. Works great for textured walls as well.

                        Need Exact Color? Get the Sample!
                        I just built a shed and I wanted to match the house color. The house was painted 10 years ago with Behr Premium and it's been a struggle ever since because the painter did not leave any cans with the color info. Grabbing a detailed color chart at Home Depot, I decided that Opal Waters was the best match. Wrong! The chip appears to be very much gray, matching the house, while OW is very blue. I was shocked at the mismatch but now I love this color so much that I want to use it for the whole house. The color really pops and I expect to get even better performance from the Marquee line. But, if you need an exact color, toss the chart and get a sample. Technical suggestion for Behr: I took a paint chip into Home Depot and they could only tell me the color ratio blend of the chip. The mixed color was close, but not an exact match because it was a custom mix in a small volume of paint. Why not take the scanner results and match them to your standard colors? At least then I could buy what was used on the house rather than deal with custom blends.
