Last Purchase of Behr
I have had problems with Behr stains before but overlooked them. This semi gloss enamel was the worst paint I have ever used. It shows the brush strokes, does not self level as an enamel should and still showed brush marks after three coats. I used a much cheaper Wal Mart paint on the interior side of the door with very good results

We regret to hear of the negative experience you have had with our product and we would like to help. In reading your review, it sounds like the coverage was poor and the paint didn't level after 3 coats. As the manufacturer, this is not something we want our customers to experience with our product. If you can still see brush marks on your door, we recommend lightly sanding the uneven texture down, cleaning the surface to remove the sand dust, and applying a new coat. A customer care representative has reached out to you directly to assist. Behr

Paint peels
I painted my entire house with this paint. I'm very frustrated becuase if someone bumps into a wall or stairway, the paint pulls up. It doesn't crack. It is almost like taffy where you try to take off the damaged area and it stretches out. I finished painting over three weeks ago so it shouldn't be tacky or stretchy at this point.

We are sorry to hear about your experience. It sounds like the paint easily peels off when someone bumps into the wall or stairway. As the manufacturer, this is not something we want our customers to experience with our product. The best way to fix this would be to lightly sand the spots that peeled, clean them, and touch up with more paint. You may also need to allow the paint a little extra dry time so it can completely harden (we usually recommend allowing the paint at least 30 days to do this). A customer care representative has reached out to you directly to learn more and help you get your project back on track. Behr

    Great Color
    I bought 1 qt of this at the recommendation of the home depot employee in the paint section. I bought it in black and I was impressed with the depth of color this paint has. The paint looks rich and creamy in satin. 1 qt did the front of my front door that was already painted black, the back of the door that was only primed...and the two sidelites. There wasn't quite enough to do the exterior sidelites as I had hoped but will purchase another qt to finish the job. You do need to be consistent with your pressure and direction of the paint. It dries fast and any inconsistencies in the way you applied the paint will show. Overall i am happy with the color, application and finish. I Will buy this paint again if needed.

      Good product, nice shine.
      Goes on well and mostly even, it is a high gloss, so any imperfections are to be expected, however sometimes it is just impossible to get the brush strokes out no matter how careful you are. Wish it would dry just a little smoother, but overall quite satisfied with the product.

      Wonderful COVERAGE!
      We were delighted with the coverage of this product over unfinished and painted wood. We feel that we got a great value in that a two gallons went farther than expected. Will buy BEHR for all our projects.

        Wanted to only do one coat
        Behr has a reputation for being the best and that's why we bought it. We painted our fence and only wanted to apply one coat so went with Behr. It looks great and saved us time.

        Out standing value and quality
        Bought 2x1gallons white for trim and a five gallon bucket of peach for the walls. Great coverage over the old yellow in one coat. Dries very smooth and professional looking, and I am not a pro to be sure. Total price 183 minus rebate of 30 equals $153! Great stuff and will use again in 7-8 years if we change minds on color. Highly recommended.

        Poor quality
        Put this paint, tinted, over a well adhering previously painted fiberglass door. In less than three months, the Behr paint starting to blister. Old paint still adhering. Now I have to strip off Behr paint, prime and apply a different brand. Called Behr. They only offered to pay for paint and said to try again with their Behr paint.

        Very disappointing
        Paint: Behr Premium Plus Ultra Pure White Exterior Semi-Gloss Enamel. Project: Front Door. Background: Many previous paint coats, all white. All surfaces washed with Chlorox, rinsed, and primed with Exterior Primer. Final coat with paint above looked and dried blotchy (see photo). It looked better with just the primer. This is either a very poor white paint or a very bad batch.

        I have used this product a few times over the past 10 years I would say at best four year product.Contractor for over 20 years. The bear products hold well without blistering or chipping, but these products fade extremely fast.

        Hello, thank you for your review. I'm so sorry to hear about the fading you've experienced. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your honest feedback. It's normal for paint to fade over time, and darker colors also tend to fade faster. To help enhance the fade-resistance of our Premium Plus Exterior Paint, we recommend using a glossy sheen. Alternatively, I recommend checking out our Marquee Exterior Paint which offers some of our best UV protection and fade resistance. If you need further assistance, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care Team, they're happy to help! -Lina Behr

        Doesn't cover very well, and I'm not a big fan of acrylic enamel paints. Give me a can of good old fashioned oil based enamels any time!

        Hi there, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear you did not get the expected coverage with Behr Premium Plus. It typically covers in 2 coats. The first coat will act as the base coat. However, it can take additional coats depending on porosity and color changes. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. If you need further assistance, please reach out to our customer care team directly. They are always happy to help! -Alex Behr

        The best "Paint" on the Market!!!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've have painted my house (3) times in the last 34 years. This paint goes on really easy and whole up great, especially here in the northwest. There is a very wide selection of colors avaliable and virtually any color can be mixed on the the spot without waiting.
