Hi LCat914, we appreciate your feedback. Sorry to hear you didn't get the coverage you were expecting from your paint. Our Premium Plus Ultra Paint is self-priming. However, it's not guaranteed to cover in a specific amount of coats. Multiple coats may be needed to achieve your desired coverage. I apologize if this wasn't mentioned to you when you originally bought your paint. Customer satisfaction is important to us. So, feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions or need assistance. Have a terrific Tuesday! –Joanna
