Answer This Question

A:  Hi Sebath, thanks for your question. Our Premium Plus Interior paint is a great choice for your bathroom. However, I recommend using a higher sheen, like satin or semi-gloss, for better moisture resistance and easier cleaning. Good luck with your project! -Christina

          Answer This Question

          A:  Hi Christine, thank you for your question. Our Premium Plus Paint is a water-based latex paint. However, we do not recommend diluting our products with more than 8 oz. of water per gallon (when using an airless sprayer to apply). Please reach out to us directly if you have any other questions. Have a great day! -Giovanna

            A:  Hi Lisa, thanks for the question. Since the Premium Plus Paint doesn't have a built-in Stain-Blocking Primer, I'd recommend priming first with our Kitchen, Bath & Trim Stain-Blocking Primer. Have a great day! -Ronald

              Answer This Question

              A:  Hi Eddie, thanks for the question. I wouldn't recommend using our Premium Plus Eggshell Enamel on a floor because it isn't designed to be used in areas that receive foot traffic. A better choice would be our Porch & Patio Floor Paint. Have a great day! -Ronald

                Answer This Question

                A:  Hi gamp, thanks for your question. We don't recommend applying our Premium Plus Interior paint directly over an oil-based paint. Instead, it's best to prime with our Multi-Surface Primer first to seal the oil-based paint before applying our Premium Plus paint as the topcoat. Have a great day! -Christina

                  Q:Is it one coat paint or do you need a primer?

                  Answer This Question

                  A:  Hi Paula, thank you for your question. As it turns out, our Premium Plus Paint is not a one-coat paint. Generally, paint will cover in 1-2 coats. However, additional coats may be needed for porous surfaces or drastic color transitions. You can use a separate primer like our Mutli-Surface Primer (No. 436) to help reduce the number of coats needed. Have a great day! -Lina
