We are in the process of repainting the exterior of our home and the painter we have chosen uses Rodda Paint. Since then, we have had several people tell us how much better Sherwin Williams paint is to Rodda. Any help with the decision process would be great! Hi Leslie, I have never tried scrubbing my Behr walls, but we have scrubbed Duron walls and found similar experiences. The color came off!!! Darker colors more so.

Lets just say, i have only been called back once, for a quarter size puck, on a porch post that was hit with water every day from the sprinkler. That call came after a year. The Brand?

Hi Sam. What you want to do is use a gray primer, because gray is the only color that absorbs light and not reflect so in return is easier to cover. Since you are using deep finish colors I highly recommend that you use this technique. Because deep colors lack titaniom-oxide another word for white pigment and their hide is not one of their better qualities.

So the best thing to do is to put one coat of mid to dark gray primer, and two coats of finish and you should be fine. As a first-time homebuyer, I used Behr from ceiling to baseboards in every room in the house, and I loved it.

I had to cover a room with Notre Dame navy and gold everywhere—even the windowsill, ceiling, and door—and the Behr covered it all right up. I also painted my dining room a deep red wine color, and with the tinted primer, it took no time. How many coats depends on the color and how stingy you are in application.

Definitely use good lighting. In addition, H. Its thin.

It drips badly. I am waiting to see if I am going to have to do two coats. I feel like I broke even. I value both labor and time too much to buy this brand again. Valspar is by far the worst ceiling paint I ever used. It does not cover and does not take second coats well. My living room looks like a white quilt! I used valspar to paint our entire house after a recent remodel with all new drywall. It was terrible. We painted 4 different colors, all having different consistencies and coverages. All of the paint required 2 coats and 2 weeks after painting the walls looked dirty as if the paint job was 2 years old.

Any bump or touch of the walls were noticeable. Getting ready to repaint with duron and try that. Unbelievable waste of time trying to use this product!! Never again, Valspar. And that includes all my boat varnishes. I absolutely agree with you. Not SO!!! The older stuff was thick and covered in 1 coat. The new formula is thin and runny, and after applying 3 coats it is blotchy.

It is suppose to be matte finish but looks like eggshell to me. Big waste of time and money. I read a good comparrison article about 4 paint brands over at One Project Closer. I have worked for both Home Depot and Lowes, and my opion is that Behr is the better paint. Also for those of you that are having issues with using two coats in the darker colors, I do recomend using a tinted primer.

Normally reds and yellows tend to to be thin, if you use a grey or red tinted primer you should only have to do on coat of primer and one coat of paint. I always recomend primer no matter what your painting. It really helps the paint stick to the surface and gives you long lasting durabiltiy.

For primer I would also recomend using the Behr Enamel Undercoater purple can it can be slightly tinted and is a great product. While working at the Home depot I did have comments that the Ralph Lauren was thin and some people didnt like it, however I have also had customers say its the best paint they have ever used. Not sure on the price but you get 8 oz. Good idea if you ask me! Hi Misty, Thanks for your thoughtful comments!

So, Home Depot will soon offer 8 oz samples for free or low cost so you can try out the paint first before buying the full can??? Wow, hat would be great! I wish someone had told me about tinted primers before I originally painted my red dining room — that would have saved me a lot of hassle. So thanks for the info! The samples are now available in Behr, Evermore, and Ralph Lauren paints. If you having problems with coverage on the Behr it is more than likely because you did not use a tinted primer. If you use a tinted primer than it will make your life a whole lot easier and the Behr will cover in one coat, i know from experience.

Once the primer has dried, paint each letter. I used Duron, One-coat white because I had some left over from a previous project. Sadly, I needed two coats to provide a more even finish. Make sure the first coat of paint has dried before painting your second coat. For more information on what paint is worth the price, see my paint comparison post. I have read over all of your comments and still am confused about the best choices of paint.

All my walls are a soft beige and most of my furniture is dark brown. Any ideas? I need advice on exterior stucco house paint.

HD or Lowes? And which one will be non fading? I love Behr paint, But the one paintthat I really love is Devine so thick and nice it is like painting with smooth yougrt. It took weeks to air out the smell. I definitely will not use it again. A friend recently recommended Benjamin Moore, but they are so expensive.

I hear Behr is a pretty choice and for the cost I will try it next time. Go green!!!

AFM safecoat can match any color. Off-gassing should be a major concern for everyone. I suppose there is no consensus Whatever I do,,, it will be water based and and low VOC because as EW says,,,,, who needs to be exposed to more than we already are.. I am in the health field and see my share of folks who are paying the price for it… some others seem not to be sensitive but I would still like to see us all get smarter about quality of paint and of life. Regarding the comments I read about various types of paint, they all reflect the dream that non-painters have; cheap paint that covers in one coat.

That is the mythical goal of the general public, coupled with the mindset that any idiot can paint. In fact it is quite simple to apply paint to a surface. Application of material is only one of many steps required to put a good looking and durable finish on a surface. Many of the cons in your article are nothing but situations that the pros deal with day in and day out. When masking tape pulls off your new coat of paint, the fact is that there was never a bond established between your substrate and your finish coat. It could have been due to improper preparation of the substrate, failing to give the new paint the required curing time, incompatibilities between the substrate and finish coat, and numerous other things.
