Amazing coverage over a dark olive green
This paint is amazingly affordable when you consider that you only need ONE coat to cover a very dark olive green paint. I couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely buy this brand for all my painting projects.

Excellent single coat coverage when rollers and brushes are properly primed.

Three Coats for One Coat Application.
Purchased $300 worth “one coat paint” in Ultra Pure White to be painted over a very pale gray previous color. Do the math
3x$300=$900 and 3x the labor. Never again.

Hi Buddy, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting good coverage. Our Marquee Paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface.

Not at all the color you think it is
Garish green would be a better name. Not sure if they messed up the sample but, see for yourself, this is not at all close to what is being advertised.

Hi there, thank you for your review. I’m sorry to hear that the color didn’t turn out as expected. Typically, the lighting and the surroundings in the room influence how the color will turn out. It is a great idea to sample colors first. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback.

No longer one coat guaranteed.
Overpriced and Underperformed. We have used this paint in the past - it was fine. We bought it for the first time in several years - it is not as thick. It does NOT cover in one coat. I noticed they changed the packaging on the can so it no longer says one coat guaranteed BECAUSE they have changed the formula.
If I knew I had to paint 2 coats i would have bought cheaper paint. My husband painted houses for years and definitively says the paint has changed and is now NOT worth the money.

Hi AnneJ, thank you for your review. I'm so sorry to hear that your paint did not provide the coverage you expected. Our Marquee Paint is guaranteed to cover in one coat when tinted to a One-Coat Color and applied over a previously coated surface. I'm concerned that you mentioned that the can no longer states One-Coat Guaranteed. There have been no recent changes to our label, and that hasn't been removed. In any case, customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please feel free to reach out to us directly so we can learn more about your project and assist. We look forward to hearing from you! -Lina

I absolutely love this paint! My bookcase was dark oak and the fireplace dark navy blue. I primed them first and then just one coat of Behr Marquee gave a beautiful new light aqua finish with no streaks or second coat needed. Love it!

It looks lavender!
In the store compared to a blue gray and a green Gray swatch this color looked like a nice basic light grey. When I put it on the wall, it almost looks like a salmon color and then Dries almost a gray/lavender color. Definitely disappointed in the color not knowing that it had purple undertones however, I’m not gonna spend the money to paint over it so hopefully once I get flooring and decor in the room, it will all come together;with that being said the product itself good quality paint

Hi Annabella, thanks for your review. I'm sorry to hear the color turned out brighter than you expected. I recommend comparing the physical color card to the sample dot on the color sticker. If these match, it's best to choose a new color. Customer satisfaction is very important to us, so feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team directly for further assistance. They are always happy to help. Enjoy the rest of your day. -Christina

Worst paint ever: Behr Marquee Ultra Pure White
Why do these reviews show different Behr paint? It makes the overall review score very misleading. I don't dislike Behr paint in general, just the Behr Marquee Ultra Pure White Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior Paint & Primer. This expensive paint's coverage is terrible and the paint is thick and difficult to work with. I had to paint a 6-panel door (that was already white) 3 times to get rid of the streaks. Why doesn't a paint as thick as this one actually cover well? Photo is after 2 coats.

Behr is our go-to paint
Behr has little-to-no VOC in their paints. In this picture (sorry no before) is the Ultra in Antique Copper and the Marquee in Bright White (wall and ceiling). I did this along with my partner. The spots are decals. Antique Copper is the best copper you can use; beautiful shade Behr offers in this. The Bright White, is just that, bright white but not overbearing - just a beautiful heavenly white. We are pleased with this look.

This is not a primer. There is no adhesion at all.
I bought this because it was highly rated as a great primer and semi-gloss paint. I just needed to paint the kitchen repair and well, this primer did not even stick to anything. Take a look at the picture. The drywall repair patching compound was wiped clean so it was dust free. The 3 layers of paint was left on for over a week before the painter's tape was removed. This peeled off like a removable sticker.

Hi helen, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the adhesion issues. This is not typical, and I can understand your disappointment. When removing painter's tape, I recommend pulling it off at a 45-degree angle while scoring with a blade. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback.

Not worth the extra money
Painted a white door that wasn't bright white and now having to paint a 3RD coat so it looks even. Halfway through, the brush thickened and was like painting with Elmer's glue. Took lots of extra strokes to make it even and most of the day to paint one door. Rated a 3 because I really like the bright white color.

Worst paint I've ever used
I reviewed this paint earlier and gave it 2 stars. After using it today in 70 degree weather, it has become the worst I've ever used at any price. I was painting Anderson French doors. The paint was drying sooooooo quickly it didn't have time to level. It left deep brush marks and drag marks when I would try to feather the paint together. It looks so bad that I will probably throw the rest of this gallon away, something I've never done before. Extreme disappointed!!!

Do not purchase this product
It provide minimal hiding ability.
I primed it with Sherwin Williams primer then topcoat it twice. Existing colour is still showing through in some of the corners.
The worst part is: No matter what types of roller you use it always leave heavy textures on the wall.
The first coat, I was using a microfibres roller leave heavy texture on the wall I had to sand it down before 2nd coat.
On a second coat I added Floetrol and change to a 6 mm nap roller. The result are the same.

Hi RW12, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that paint did not cover well, and left a heavy texture. This is not normal, and I understand your disappointment. It sounds like the paint was drying too fast. We do not recommend adding floetrol, but you can add 4 oz. of water per gallon to slow down the dry time. Our Marquee paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface.

If you're wanting the brightest, most brilliant white, you've found it!
I really love this Behr Marquee Ultra White Semi-Gloss paint. It goes on smoothly, dries quickly and has virtually no odor. I chose it to paint my baseboards, trim and some doors. It is the whitest of whites. It's beautiful! I have tried Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams and Valspar but this is the best one so far!

Doesn't go far
Takes a lot of paint for even small spaces, but it did cover with one coat.

Very misleading
They should let you know that it will dry with a tint of lavender. Looks great until it dries! Not happy, now I have to spend more money that was not in our time or budget. Please put a warning with this color!!!

The color matched exactly what I’d expected. As advertised, I can apply the paint in one thin coat, except, I do have to apply again on some light spots, probably partly because of the paint roller not being consistent. I’m very satisfied with the color that makes the rooms brighter.

Not for novice painters
This material is not forgiving. If you are not experienced, do not attempt to use it. However if you know what you’re doing, you’ll end up with a strong, beautiful finish.
