Customer Reviews for BEHR PREMIUM 1 gal. #N160-7 Brown Velvet Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior/Exterior Cabinet, Door & Trim Paint

This paint was great the deep base color was the perfect gray for my cabinets! The paint dried really fast and easy to clean up any drips or spills.

This paint went on smooth and covered a light blue and dark blue wall in one coat! I highly recommend!

They are very durable, easy to clean. Only problem i have is the the color was off. We ordered Tin, and after putting grey primer and 2 coats of paint, it came out bluish

Overall, I'm happy with the results. It dries evenly and smooth. I got better results using a roller than a paint brush. Covering a really dark brown required three coats, but I anticipated that, going from really dark to white.

This product worked great on my trim, however I found when the trim was bumped it peeled off quickly revealing the dark brown paint underneath. I used a primer plus two coats of this product.

I used this paint on some out of date cabinets in my laundry room, and I'm very happy with the finished product. I used brushes and rollers and had good coverage on the cabinets after only 2 coats (brushed on first coat and rolled on second coat using brush for features/tight spots) after a good sanding of the cabinets. The finish is durable after curing, which can take a few weeks. As I live in a dry climate, the cabinets were dry to the touch after only 2 house. I put my freshly painted cabinets to use after just 2 days by putting a little rubber bumper on the corner of each cabinet door, so the painted surfaces do not stick to one another. The cured paint is stain resistant and has been easy to clean with a damp rag. The leveling feature of the paint was also exceptional and resulted in a quality final coat. If I was painting kitchen cabinets, I would probably put a couple coats of poly over the final coat but not necessary for laundry room cabinets.

I sprayed my kitchen cabinet doors and drawers with this, and the finish looked like it came from the factory. The Alkyd is the only way to go if you're doing this type of finish work, no brush or roller marks. I'll never buy anything else.

First time I have used this paint. It is relatively thin, so ideal for spray from my Homeright electric sprayer. Went on flawlessly and dried fast!. Two coats over a tinted primer covered great. I will use this again.

I bought this paint due to good reviews and wanted something specifically for my mothers kitchen cabinets. What a disappointment! I use a paint sprayer for these projects to get things done quicker since I work at the hospital and limited on extra time! I usually thin out according to manufacturer and this stated not to thin. I tried it BOTH ways, with and without just because it's pretty thick. This paint left thick spots in areas and just very dull looking! Another issues clogged up my paint sprayer tip and splattered everywhere! I'm now at a standstill for now. I've primed and thought quick spray no biggie and boy was I WRONG! Never again!

The paint covered my kitchen cabinets well but when they started to dry, the white pain started yellowing. I'm going to have to resand them and repaint them with a different brand paint.

I bought this paint thinking that it would be a good durable finish. It was mixed to the espresso bean color I used zinser 123 primer under recommendation of Homedepot associates but the finish turned out looking like leather as you can see in the pic. My customer is not happy about it. I used a 1/4" Knapp roller as suggested by the info on the can. Expensive failure now I have to fix it. Signed help!!

I refinished a big entertainment center turn out to be a really nice paint is very nice and smooth and shiny happy with this product

This paint makes my kitchen cabinets look lovely. Today, it's very humid and a bit cold, and it's been raining since last night. The paint is not even slightly tacky, as some finishes are when the humidity is high. This is a high quality, enamel paint that, while expensive, is worth the money. The lighter colored upper cabinets and pantry doors are done with one coat, brushed on - not rolled. I liked the way they looked, so I did only one coat, so far, on purpose. I just love how it all turned out. The only issue I had was, first of all, that it was just under $40 a gallon (!!! Yikes). Also, once the liquid color mixer was added for the dark green, the paint was rather runny and I had to be careful not to let it drip. It took two coats, but the finish is beautiful. It dried to a hard, durable finish - one that doesn't chip when my nails slide over it when opening drawers. The light color was thicker, and went on easily, with a brush. Both were totally dry within a half hour, and it dried to durable hard finish by evening. Cleanup with water was easy, as long as I got it quickly. If I let it go the next day, I had to work hard to get it cleaned up...a good sign as to how hard it will be to damage the paint on the cabinets. I had to use a straight razor to remove the big blob I dropped inside my stainless steel sink, but it came off quite easily with the razor. I did not prime my cabinets. some were bare, unfinished wood, and some were painted a medium gray color, which chipped when I would accidentally slide my nails into it as I opened my cabinet drawers. There is no difference in the durable finish, despite the different conditions of the cabinets. I'm totally pleased and would buy this again.

I loved the paint but I fought removing lump's in the paint the whole quart. I figured out the lump's came from inside the lid rim paint had dried for some reason, maybe the lid wasn't properly tightened from the processor. My job painting an interior door came out beautiful but the lump's were a pain.

I was repainting a baby's dressing table and crib. I wanted paint that was water based and durable so I chose the Behr Cabinet and Trim white. I also was using a Graco X5 Trueairless sprayer that I had purchased from Home Depot. Both pieces of furniture turned out great and the airless sprayer worked beautifully. Bottom line, paint was great, the sprayer was great and the furniture turned out great. I would highly recommend both products.

Great results with painting kitchen cabinets and trim. I always use Behr products.

We used it to white wash kitchen cabinets with the paint on a rag over sanded worn pickled finish. Worked awesome and was easy to blend. It drys a bit quick, so work with a little speed or it starts getting sticky. If you re-wet the paint with fresh paint if it gets a little dry it will soften up, but don't wait too long.

This is a high quality paint and the perfect alternative to oil based paints. It is very easy to work with low odor and water cleanup, and no need for special brushes, equipment or disposal requirements. I used brushes and rollers and had good coverage after 2 coats. The finish is durable after curing, which can take a few weeks (although it drys in only a few hours, the paint is not fully cured or at full strength). I put my freshly painted cabinets to use after just 2 days by putting a little plastic, or felt circle on the corner of each cabinet door, so the painted surfaces do not stick to one another. I use this paint on a cabinet in my laundry area and it has withstood damp clothes on it and other damp conditions. The cured paint is stain resistant, but also cleans easy with a damp rag. This paint would work good for baseboards, doors and other areas where a durable paint is needed.

Very nice paint. Very low odor if anything at all. The only reason for the four stars is that the coverage is average. I’ve used many paints and painted thousands of square feet over the years. Even when top coating over natural white color, you’re most likely going to need two coats with this. Other than that, the leveling and sheen is wonderful. Dries to touch within minutes and clean up is super easy since it is water-based, which is a plus. So far I’ve painted an interior door with this and it came out very nice.

Normally I use Behr Paint, and just realized they had Semi-gloss Interior "Cabinet and Trim". Now my camera isn't the greatest, and the lighting is lousy down there. But I thought it might be something new and improved from the last time I did my cabinets, also by Behr... I don't think this paint was exceptional in any sense, but all the same, when the job is done, I believe Behr Paint will be most durable, cleanable and easy care. That has been my experience to date. I was quite conscientious about stirring in between coats. My photos show the first coat applied,the second, third and even fourth coat, and I'm still not certain that a fifth coat will really cover it! I guess that it's approximately the same as any Behr alkyd latex. It's still good paint, but it requires a lot of coats!

I expected great results from a Behr Premium product and I was not disappointed. I had a particularly needy door which had not seen paint in more than 15 years. I applied a light coat of the paint when there were large scuff marks, let it dry and then painted the whole door. I was surprised at how fast I was able to complete the task. Using a high quality 4" roller I found that the paint glided on. Even the insert detail was able to be completed using the roller and a few strokes of a brush where I dripped in a couple of corners. I have many more doors to complete and expect to have my whole house done before long with this premium paint.

I painted my kitchen cabinets over the Thanksgiving weekend with this paint. I guess I liked some aspects of this paint and disliked others. I will start with what I liked. It dries quickly. Regular interior latex paints remain sticky for a few days afterwards. That stickiness isn’t noticeable when it’s on your walls but it becomes apparent when you are using it on cabinets, doors, and furniture. This stuff dried solid within a few hours and couldn’t even be scratched away with a fingernail. I suspect and hope that this will be a long lasting durable finish. Now what I didn’t like-- it was really thin paint. It took several coats to even cover up the white underneath it. I can’t imagine what it would take to cover up any other color. I think the thinness would make it a great paint for spraying but I was using a brush because I don't have the equipment to spray it. But unfortunately the thinness made for a lot of drips/runs that needed to be sanded out and redone. Also, brush marks were prevalent throughout the entire paint job. All in all, I may or may not use this on future projects, depending on how resilient it ends up proving to be after a few years of abuse in my kitchen.

I've had pretty good results from Behr paint products overall and generally use them whenever I can. This is a good white that I would expect to faithfully represent whatever color you chose for it. I used it on my Christmas village and am pretty happy with the results, although I think if I were to do it over again I probably would have chosen a flatter sheen. I have two pictures of the tables I built with one coat of paint over a coat of Kilz primer. You can see the brush strokes and if it was going to be exposed I would have put a 2nd coat of paint on as well as even with the primer and 1st coat you can see some of the grain coming through underneath. 1 coat might be OK over wallboard or MDF. My wife likes how the village turned out, which is most important. Seems very durable so far as well.

BEHR Premium Ultra pure Semi-gloss was what I have chosen to freshen my trim through my house, I have used BEHR paint for many years, I have never been disappointed. The Semi-gloss is easy to maintain keeping cleanup from finger prints or smudges an easy task. it wears well, its easy to cover over existing trim, Simply clean and dry well, for the best results. Make sure you pick up brushes available at Home Depot Paint Department for an excellent finish. as well as coverage. This paints cleans easily with soap and water. I like the fact that it dries quickly ,looks so fresh and new.

I have received my Behr Premium Cabinet & Trim Paint. I have used this unbelievable paint from Home Depot with the Behr name, for a very, very long time. It is a trusted product and gives me great results. I got this one in the interior semi-gloss finish and can't wait to get my cabinets painted. I will also use this on trim near my doors and windows because I truly trust it. And in the white base with no color. No more sticky cabinet doors. It will dry hard and durable. I can count on a great finish and easy clean-up, and oh yeah, a smiling face after I'm done.

We have some very dated wooden cabinets in our kitchen. This paint has given our kitchen a whole new look. Applying the paint was the easy part. I would definitely recommend extensive prep before you even think about painting kitchen cabinets. Most kitchen cabinets have a ton of dirt and grease on them from years of cooking. You really need to degrease with scouring pads and soap. Stripping isn't really necessary. But you will want to use a 100 or 120 grit sandpaper after you have done your cleaning. Also make sure that you use a tack cloth to get any residual dirt or sawdust off. I'm telling you this product is awesome as long as you do the necessary prep. So roll up your sleeves and get to work. You're going to love the results

We seem to go through a lot of paint at our house. When you get tired of looking at a room, the easiest way to create a new look is to re-paint and change the tint, or make a nice "effect". Painting does the trick. I have forever had issues painting doors and windows and having them stick after the paint has dried and it is a royal nuisance . This semigloss interior cabinet and trim paint is formulated to give a hard durable finish that after 2 hours dry time will not stick. I say it is about time that something like this has been developed. I have a bunch of doors here that need freshening up. In general we like Behr paint products and use them a lot.

This is a great interior paint. I used it to paint inside a small pantry that has an intruding HVAC chase. A previous owner had painted the chase an ugly light brown. As the photo shows, this paint covers the darker color very well with only one coat. It goes on easily and cleans up easily. I plan to use it to paint some quarter-round molding and some stair railings.
