No primer needed they say
I worked at Home Depot through my college years and became loyal to their products and services. Behr paint became a favorite of mine until today. Their product say no primer needed. Well, tell that to the 6 interior doors i just spent 24 hours prepping and painting. I sure hope Behr makes this right.

Hi Brandon, thank you for being a loyal customer of ours, and I am sorry to hear about your experience. This product is self-priming over properly prepared coated or uncoated surfaces. However, for any stain-blocking, or over oil-based or glossy surfaces, priming would be recommended. To help make things right, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly; we'd love the opportunity to help in any way we can. -Edith Behr
    The paint is smooth and covers well. The best I have used.

    Disappointed
    Far far far better paints for the money. No shortage of work required to apply this paint. Super annoyed at having to go get another can for a third heavy coat on under 400 sf of TWO primer coated walls. Classy colours and a great display, but the paint is garbage coming from, not a professional, but a home owner that has painted tens of thousands of square feet of drywall. Disappointed.

    Hi Keith,

    Thank you for reviewing Premium Plus Paint. I'm terribly sorry to hear about the coverage issue you experienced. While 2-3 coats are normal, I understand that multiple coats over already primed calls can seem excessive. I'd love to gather more information about your project and find the best way to help. I strongly encourage you to contact us directly for further assistance with this matter.

    Kindest regards,

    Doris Behr

      Most Amazing Paint EVER !
      So I’m a first time painter and spent hours, days & weeks online searching for the perfect white paint. I couldn’t stomach spending the money on Benjamin Moore so I settled for this. I’ll admit—some of the reviews made me nervous to buy it. I didn’t know what to expect. But let me tell you—THIS PAINT IS AMAZING. It’s thick. It’s gorgeous and it literally took me ONE COAT to cover my dresser. I didn’t sand it before hand either that’s how good the coverage is ! My project turned out beautifully.

        This is my new favorite off-white - really the lightest shade of lavender I've seen. I used it in my dark, oblong entryway, to lighten it up and it met all my expectations. Thanks Behr!

        The BEST white paint I've ever worked with
        I did a good bit of research before I chose Behr Ultra White because I wanted the purest white paint I could buy. This color topped almost every review I found. the paint itself? It has a creamy, rich, but not thick texture. Easy to work with. Easy to clean up. It took hold of prepped surfaces like a magnet! The cure time must be adhered to because it remains tacky until that exact moment. I used it on drywall, plywood flooring, vinyl trim, to refinish a piano, and beadboard, sometimes as a base for another color, sometimes as the color itself with a topcoat because my kids are very destructive. it's beautiful.

          Great paint and coverage
          We paired Mesa Taupe with Harmonious and love that combo on several main walls with a couple of accent walls. I used 250 sq feet for the coverage calc. Believe we could have gone to 275 for less left over paint. We applied 2 coats for the desired color, some might have stopped at one coat for a lighter finished color. We only used a dry swifter to wipe down loose dirt, webs, etc.

            I've used Sherwin William's, Valspar, Glidden and etc. I'm a piant contractor and I've been in business for 9 years. Behr paint is the only product that I recommend to my customers. Its durable, great coverage, longer lasting then your other brands, and it's very price efficient compared to other companies. Do the research your self, Consumer Reports has it as the #1 paint to use, and has been for years. You want a paint that will outlast the competition,..then you need Behr Paint,..Period.

            This 1 qt. Ultra Pure White Flat Low Odor Interior Paint and Primer delivers a great result. I had to paint the part of the wall and i took a sample color from the wall and they were able to give me the exact matching color. It dries pretty fast and there is almost not recognizable difference between the new and old paint on the wall.

              Good stuff, easy to apply, it covered with the first coat, but I always use 2 coats for the extra durability. If it lasts as well as I've read it does I'll be a very happy camper.

              Hi Marcia,

              Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get the coverage you were expecting. Our Premium Plus paint will typically cover in 1-2 coats or 2-3 for more drastic color changes. For guaranteed one-coat coverage, I recommend checking out our Marquee Interior paint line which will cover your previously painted or primed surfaces in one coat when tinted to a color from our One-Coat Color Collection. For further assistance with your project, please feel free to reach out to us directly. - Sara Behr

              I buy BEHR paints to paint all my house. I’m very happy that I chose this paint over other because the quality , durability and economically cheap so everyone can buy. Since my relatives and friends see the effects of color and overall happy feel they are willing to buy the same BEHR paint for their house. I will recommend everyone to try this and see the difference.
