Yeah right. Forget the rebates and just give me a plain old sale any day. While I agree that I would prefer to just see a sale price, I can tell you with all confidence and honesty that a miniscule portion of submissions are rejected.
The rebates are there either as a promotion to get the consumer to try a product or to reward them for brand loyalty, not to grab price shoppers. The most common reason for rejection would be failure to comply with the terms. That would include: 1 not purchasing within the promotion dates 2 not sending required documentation if it says original receipt or UPC, send it!
This will negate your submission. The rules are there to prevent fraud, and are set by the manufacturer or retailer. We just follow their rules. Sounds like some pretty shifty dealing to me, get a small rebate for them to get out of honoring their warranty. I just called Home Depot to find out if I could get my money back for the paint plus primer I bought that is not worth the time or money.
I was painting one wall candy apple red over white and usually use a pink tinted primer for such a job. The paint professional at Home Depot talked me into buying the all in one paint with primer, saying that the coverage would be better, needing only two coats total and it would do everything that a primer would do—stain coverage and even saturation. I have painted three coats already and I am hoping that two more will do the job right. It does not cover pen marks or go on evenly.
I still have splotches and marks. I could have painted the entire room instead of just this one wall and I do not like what I see.
I was skeptical, but wanted to save time. Do not buy this junk. Hate it. I will buy Benjamine Moore from now on. Problem is not the paint.. Only certain red colors cover in 2 coats. Here is a little hint. When you look at the Behr color chip, look next to the color name. Some colors still require the tinted primer first.
Thanks for that tip, Eric, you saved me a possible nightmare. I wound up with a decent job, but with an awful lot of paint on the walls. The stuff is very thick, and thinning is not recommended. They say for red colors there is a pink tinted primer coat needed first and it is mixed into a medium base of Behr Ultra.
This info comes up automatically when the paint pro keys in the color name on their paint computer system. Similar tinted primers do not work as well as primers tinted to medium to dark grays, regardless of whether they are deep blues, reds, purples, etc. Being more translucent, whites or lighter versions of the color are more apparent through the paint film coating thickness.
Just to toss in a few clarifications about many of the statements made in previous posts. This blog was ment to be for the new Behr Paint and Primer in one.
I myself do work at a paint store. I undergo various tests in staying updated on current qualities of products, as well as additional levels of on hands testing with products. After having done a bit of researching myself, and becoming somewhat aquainted with this, my findings and test are this.
A self priming paint typically goes on mil thick while wet. These paints have actual primer technology which assures added adhesion for the paint. We all know that latex paints are water based. The soul function of the water is to get the paint ingredients to the surface.
Thus when the paints dry, they leave about a 1. There is nothing new and or different about this paint than the top of the line paints you find at home improvement stores. So what does that say? There is no priming properties about this paint. My post is to show there is NO substitution for a good coat of actual primer, and then top coat with paint. Applying a primer first, then your paint is the best way to get superior adhesion, and lasting performance from your paints. In response to what jack said above about your red paints… Red colors are transluscent pigments, as well as many of the bright yetllow, blues, and greens.
These colors, regardless of paint quality, will need more than one coat. The better the quality of paint, the fewer the coats.
However, i disagree with jack about using a pink tinted primer for an undercoater. Using a pink primer under a red, will only reflect a different shade in your top coat. If you want to get the best, most true look from any reds, bright yellows, lime greens, and bright blues, have your primer tinted a shade of gray. Gray Is a neutral color and will reflect the top coats true color back. Try this. The portion primed gray will be the truest color, and will use less coats than any other procedure.
Two coats of paint are not the same thing as priming, and if you think of it on a cost look. You will use twice as much of this undoubtedly pricy paint, than if you buy a primer and paint. My contractor just finished painting two rooms with this paint. I bought it because I thought it would save him time. He painted one room almond color and the living room red. He complained about the red paint, that it did not roll on nicely. He had to do two coats, and that room had been pained a couple of times before, so no primer was really needed.
The satin finish is very shiny and almost looks like semigloss. It shows all the drywall problems and now we have to do something to fix that. I would not recommend this paint to anyone. The almond color went on nicely with one coat over new drywall. The contractor liked it and it looks smooth. I would like another coat of the almond color over new drywall anyway.
I will probably have to do that myself as the contractor is done today. I usually buy Sears paint and I am going back to that brand. I have always used Behr paint. For this project, I too, was talked into the paint plus primer as I was working with a shade of red paint.
I hate this paint! I agree with Barbara in that it shows ALL the drywall problems! The paint did not roll on smoothly and took about 48 hours for the paint to feel dry despite having the house closed up and the air conditioning cranked up.
Removing the tape, the paint is pulling away from the walls and feels like rubber. We are coat four and the walls are finally starting to appear even. The ONLY reason this product covers better is 2 new tints used for this product only.
If youve noticed, all HD stores got new tint machines. This is becuz they needed room for the new high hiding tints exterior red and magenta ….
Other than that, its a marketing gimmick…. You people are idiots. You can go whining to Behr or SW or Ben.
Flat hides best, and avoids annoying light reflections. Usually I prime over with Kilz to ensure I get the color of the topcoat stays true. I was very disappointed. The coverage for a first coat was worse than with their regular paint, which is signficantly cheaper!
Out of the four walls, the only one that covered half-way decently was the wall that had been primed with Kilz. I have used Behr paint in the past, and found it acceptable.
I bought 14 gallons in various colors to do walls and ceilings. This stuff is no good. I tried different naps of rollers, and even went to Lambs Wool rollers, but the results were the same. I complained to Behr, and got a refund. Each one has a specific function. Do the two steps, and you should be much happier with the results. I have used this paint a lot and it works great. I have come to the conclusion that the only time that I should use a seperate primer is if oil base primer is the best call.
As far as one coat coverage — the can recommends 2 coats and if anyone who is worth their weight knows 2 coats is always a much better paint job. As far as red coverage goes make sure that the color you have is using their new tints.
To say that Behr is inferior to paint store brands because it is sold in a big box is purely false. Painters tend to be loyal to their paint store because of the huge discounts that they get off the retail price. So of course they want to sell you on those brands. I wanted to paint our walls in our basement. They are wood paneling. My husband is planning on starting the project this weekend. I was wondering if anone had any info on weather this will work as Home Depot stated. Kristen — It will depend on your color.
I just spent almost 2 days painting a small bedroom and closet using the Behr Ultra paint. The room was hot. The ac didnt work well I used 2 fans to cool it down and a couple of watt halogen lights to see better. Ive never used a more sticky hard to roll paint in my life. I usually use mid grade Duron paint and never have a flow problem. To get this Ultra paint to flow I overloaded the roller and it worked ok but afterward it had runs all over the place.
Even with this overloading the paint did not cover in 1 coat. I cut in the corners before I rolled and the edges never did lay flat. I had to press hard to get the roller to roll smooth.
The paint left roll marks that seldom leveled out. Painting the base trim was pure hell. The paint was a semi gloss. I used a new Purdy angled brush. I loaded the brush as usual. Laid the brush on the edge and started what I thought would be a nice long strke as usual. I got about 2 or 3 inches and the paint stopped flowing. I retraced my stroke and still no paint.
Ive never had this problem and Ive painted thousands of square feet of wall surface. I checked with 3 different Home Depot paint salesman and they said they never heard of this problem. Never offered solutions. I mentioned maybe thinning with water. They just told be how many people have been buying the paint and they never heard of this problem.
I experienced. He said the heat and fans were probably making my problems worse. What a difference in sales persons. Are you guys lying about how great this paint is or do you just not know better.
Ive never used a worse speading paint or a messier paint in my life. I would like to see if anyone has anything to add to this. I am in the middle of painting a very long, high hallway and was concerned about the paint spreading very unevenly. Thanks for confirming what I thought — this is not great paint. Behr paint is very thick, for sure. Barry, I found the same when applying this product with a brush, in semi gloss AND satin: it is similar to spreading butter; material sticks to the brush and flops off onto finished work; where you put the brush down AND lift up displays a gouge mark, you have to run a continuous brush stroke the entire length of the door.
Material sets up way too fast and thick; and after a very few seconds a second pass will pill and ball. I am an amateur but have pretty good brush technique. I will try the floetrol. I can honestly say that I work for HD, and have had the Ultra in our store for about a month. I have not had one complaint yet! Yes if you use cheap rollers you will have problems, thats a given.
So many people try to take the cheap way out but yet want the look of a professional job, thats not going to happen. No where does it state that the ULTRA is a one coat coverage, your just hearing what you want from the commercial! Its meant to be less coats. Most people I recoment primer to dont use it, and end up sometimes doing 3 to 5 coats depending on the color.
If they were to do the same color in the Ultra those coats would go down to But like I said it depends on the color. Everyone is going to have their own opinion on what they like. I have people that will only use Ralph Lauren and by my opinion its no good.
There are 8oz samples available, test out, see what you think!!! Due to past bad experience, I swore I would never use Behr paint again. After a few months, the paint is cracked and falling off.
OK… that seals it… I will never buy Behr paint or stain ever again! Just put my second coat of Behr with primer. Looks like I just finished the first coat. I was told from a few people that reds and yellows are the hardest paints to get good coverage. I am going on to my 3rd coat, had to stay with the same primer base as changing base may not match color.
Maybe need four or more coats before this is all over. A one day project is now going on to 3 days. Would not use this primer paint again gun shy. I am sworn off Behr paints. The stuff is just downright no good. Could it be any less colorfast? Have not used the new ultra. I later used SWP Duration, which works pretty good. Grandaddy of them all is Benjamin Moore Aura.
I just completed my first interior paint project using Behr Premium Plus Ultra. However, I am very pleased with the outcome. I put on 2 coats, and cut-in in about 4 hours total. The satin finish is very nice, and the color dried evenly. I am anticipating my next project, and I will never buy anything other than Behr Ultra. My daughter works at Home Depot and was told this paint would work great on latex painted walls. I am a 51 yr old disabled single woman who has owned this home 20 years.
I have never seen a paint perform so poorly! My duagher and I are painting a bedroom for her. After painting and dry time, pulled off the tape at the ceiling and a big chunk peeled off the wall…and not just the Behr paint, it removed the previous 4 coats, the knockdown treatment and I have a bare spot that is down to the drywall!!!
For now on, its Valspar at Lowes for me. Dad has used Valspar for years without issues, but since my daughter works at Home Depot, she was told this paint was the greatest. Oh, and one coat coverage? That is a joke! Now as far as the area where al the coats of paint peeled off including the knock down treatment, leaving drywall exposed — even that paper wants to come off…I am so upset beyond words!!!
I will seek getting my money back on the product to use toward repairing the damage Behr paint caused. I would like to paint my kitchen cabinets — they are mdf and were originally sprayed with I think an oil-based semi gloss paint. Not sure they were ever primed — edges of cabinet doors would indicate they were not.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am spraying my interior trim in place with Behr primium plus ultra interior semigloss and am finding it a nightmare. I was having good luck using regular Primium Plus and adding Floetrol. I needed another gallon of paint and was talked into buying the paint by a HD sales person who had had good luck brushing it on with minimal brush strokes in the dried finish. If I put enough paint down to get a smooth finish. The frustrating thing, is that it will run after it sets on the trim for a half hour.
I think they added something to retard drying so that the paint levels better when brushing. Makes it useless for spaying. If I put enough paint down to get a smooth finish, it will run. Less paint it comes out bumpy. Primer is totally different from paint. Skipping this step causes problems eventually.
Use the best tools brush , rollers you can afford. Otherwise, you risk failure and more work to correct the problem. This is a marketing gimmick- the Behr product is thick and heavy-bodied, but there is no primer in it. These days, people want to take shortcuts and do projects easier. There is no sense in doing something wrong over and over again.
Some models cover very well with one coat. I generally paint two coats , regardless of whether the first coat covered completely or not. Two coats will last a lot longer than one coat, so it just makes sense that if you went to all the work of prepping and getting ready to paint, you paint another coar.
Primer , especially water based primer, is crappy stuff. I never have problems hiding, even with less than ultra grade paints, mainly because color changes are almost always slight — no one goes from arctic white to blood red. They are simply using a marketing gimmick to help increase their dollar amount.
Alot of you should read what I posted previously about half way up. Always use premium quality brushes and roller covers for best results. When you mask off an area with tape, make sure to always use a new sharpe razor edge, preferably a precision knife, to gently slice the paint from the tape before removing. Always note that regardless of how dry your paint feels, it takes at least 7 days for it to fully cure to the wall.
Allow even longer in high humidity.. The cabinets were cheap, old and ugly. I painted them a dark brown and it looks so good. I guess it would probably look good just painting them but I was hoping to get a better look. The wood grain on the door shows through which is fine, but I think I would use regular primer first-then Sherwinn -Williams paint over it if I wanted to get rid of the grainy look.
My kitchen it painted a bright white and has white cabinets. Too much white. So, will this new Behr paint be a good choice for me? Or just use a gray primer first and then any other brand of red paint? In fact, it doesnt stick to paint liners also — so you can peel it all off and use it again.
Be very careful using this paint. My experience with both light and dark colors — color and uniformity are good. Adhesion is terrible. Nothing like good prep — clean, prime, and paint. Some of you have commented as such and many have obviously not tested their adhesion yet. And the paint can says good for Metal, plastic, etc, etc. Again- skipping proper surface preparation and priming is a recipe for failure, no matter what time you are trying to save.
Successful painting is no different. We are in the midst of using Behr all in one paint and primer for the first time. We have always been a fan of Behr paint till now. I even bought the rollers they recommended for the job! If you are using a brush fot getting in close places, plan on at least two and sometimes 3 coats to cover.
They claim this paint will save work for the painter, but so far, we have had to repaint many places that did not cover. Very disapointing. We have painted our homes for more than 40 years so we do have the know how about painting.
Our walls were off white and we are painting a light gold. I will NOT buy this paint again. All this extra work for paint that claims to cover all. I would be interested to hear more responses from people about this. I purchased the Behr paint with primer mixed in when it was on sale over Labor Day weekend. I purchased 15 gallons so that I could do the entire house. I loved the color and thought it went on well, but after painting only three walls over a period of a few weeks and allowing overnight drying time between the two coats, the paint started peeling off the walls like fruit rollups off the wax paper.
I was painting over a sage green paint with an eggshell finish. It can be used for stippling and applying sand paints. Product price is estimated. Pricing could change based on your local Home Depot pricing.
