Behr paint is the best.

Behr and RL paint are great. I had these paints in my townhouse before moving to my detached home. The townhouse had both paint brands in various locations throughout the townhouse and the colors and feel of the wall afterwards were awesome. The key is to get semi-gloss. This way you can easily clean off any marks or spills on the paint. Now my detached/single-family house is another story. We had professional painters come in and paint the grand room (2-story ceilings), foyer, kitchen, and morning room. The painter had a wholesale discount with Sherwin Williams, so the paints were obtained at cost. The first mistake was using a Satin finish. Not only does this leave marks, but its harder to clean. The second was the quality. We ended up painting the dining room with a RL paint, and decided to use a satin finish. The quality and feel on the RL paint was much higher than the Sherwin Williams. So the moral of the story I guess is use a high quality paint, and try to use semi-gloss if you can!

I have to agree with Jay’s comments 100%. We lived in a beautiful and luxurious townhouse before moving to our single family detached house. The townhouse had RL and Behr paints throughout the house, and the finish was semi-gloss. The rooms look brighter and the finish is so smooth that you can easily clean off any dirt or stains. Now we had professional painters come and paint our grand room, hallways (both upstairs/downstairs, and foyer, all of which have a 2 story foyer. They also painted our kitchen and morning room. The painters were the same ones that the builder used so they cut us a deal if we’d pay cash. The painters also had some discounts with Sherwin Williams. Ok, not a problem we though. Big mistake! We should’ve stuck to what we knew or works. The painters insisted on using a satin finish. You can easily notice a difference between satin and semi-gloss. Its extremely difficult to clean off marks that our son makes. The other issue, Sherwin Williams is an inferior paint when compared to Behr or RL. We painted the dining room with RL paint using a satin finish. Even though it was a satin finish, the quality and feel of the wall was so much better, it almost looked like and felt like a semi-gloss finish. We also ended up repainting the kitchen/morning room ourselves and bought the same color Behr paint and semi-gloss finish that we had in our townhouse. This looks so much better and richer. I wish we had gone with Behr or RL semi-gloss. The builders always use flat paints on the houses, which always garner marks. My rental townhouse still has the builder’s flat paint. I’m planning on repainting some of the rooms using Behr or RL semi-gloss finishes. The extra money that you spend ($25-Behr at home despot or $30-RL at home despot vs the $15 or $20 per Sherwin Williams can) is infinitely worth it after you see the finish. It’ll look and feel more valuable!
Btw, stay away from the Lowe’s brand of paints, I believe their Vespar or something. We painted one of our rooms in our old townhouse with this using a satin finish, big mistake! The finish feels like chalk and looks cheap in comparison to the RL or Behr semi-gloss finishes. Good luck on your paint jobs!

Ok hmm, guess you should have the facts before becoming accusatory..
I’m not a HD employee, don’t even work in that area remotely. I’ve tried the following paints in various finishes: Duron, Sherwin-Williams, Behr, RL. Duron was ok, but it did match what the builder had intended as their finish. Plus the Duron store has the builder specs (type of paint/finish) if you have the model/community info. Their hours suck (close @ 5 on weekdays), but why am I not surprised. Sherwin-Williams: alot of painters use this, they get massive discounts on it, but the finish sucks. I’m comparing the satin finish of SW vs the satin finish of the RL paint. The RL tops this. Just running your finger on the finished product of the RL painted room has a smoother feel than the SW room. Also the SW coated room had two coats (painted professionally), vs 1 coat for the RL finished room. RL certainly tops SW, hence worth the extra cost. Now for Behr, the people who had decorated the townhouse had used a combo of this and RL. They used a semi-gloss finish so I’m assuming thats why it looked so good. Now, I can tell you that we only used one coat to repaint the kitchen/morning room with the Behr semi-gloss finish, it looks much better than the flat SW paint the builder used. I have tried SW’s semi-gloss, its ok. I’m not here to pitch Behr or RL to anyone, but after dealing with this in 3 different homes, the fact remains that a semi-gloss finish with Behr or RL looks so much better than the satin finishes that SW had. I am not into repainting etc, so the semi-gloss finish seems to have held up after several years. However one thing to be aware of, test your paints out wisely. Buy some samples that are flat and view them in day and night. It’ll make a huge difference and save you a major headache/time. I’m about to paint a rental property that has had the oringinal builder Duron white walls in there since the townhouse was constructed (5 1/5 years ago). Not to pitch a product or anything, I’m planning on using Behr Semi-Gloss paint throughout the house. Any marks can be rubbed off easily and for a rental prop, that’s pretty important (avoids having to go through and retouch the place).

After all said and done, everyone’s experience will differ. I can say that the worst paint I’ve bought (only used it for 1 room though), was Lowe’s Vaspar. It was a satin finish – big mistake there, and uses more paint per area. Also the finish feels more like a flat finish, a huge mistake and lesson learned!

I’ve used RL paint for years – best there is and Home Depot doesn’t carry it anymore. I am so bummed.

The coupon for Behr paint will not work. I do love Behr paint I want to try the prime and paint in one this time.

did like the rebate like they said
BEHR rejected it like we knew they would………… shame they used to honor there promotions
