Last Purchase of Behr
I have had problems with Behr stains before but overlooked them. This semi gloss enamel was the worst paint I have ever used. It shows the brush strokes, does not self level as an enamel should and still showed brush marks after three coats. I used a much cheaper Wal Mart paint on the interior side of the door with very good results

We regret to hear of the negative experience you have had with our product and we would like to help. In reading your review, it sounds like the coverage was poor and the paint didn't level after 3 coats. As the manufacturer, this is not something we want our customers to experience with our product. If you can still see brush marks on your door, we recommend lightly sanding the uneven texture down, cleaning the surface to remove the sand dust, and applying a new coat. A customer care representative has reached out to you directly to assist. Behr

Paint peels
I painted my entire house with this paint. I'm very frustrated becuase if someone bumps into a wall or stairway, the paint pulls up. It doesn't crack. It is almost like taffy where you try to take off the damaged area and it stretches out. I finished painting over three weeks ago so it shouldn't be tacky or stretchy at this point.

We are sorry to hear about your experience. It sounds like the paint easily peels off when someone bumps into the wall or stairway. As the manufacturer, this is not something we want our customers to experience with our product. The best way to fix this would be to lightly sand the spots that peeled, clean them, and touch up with more paint. You may also need to allow the paint a little extra dry time so it can completely harden (we usually recommend allowing the paint at least 30 days to do this). A customer care representative has reached out to you directly to learn more and help you get your project back on track. Behr

    Great Color
    I bought 1 qt of this at the recommendation of the home depot employee in the paint section. I bought it in black and I was impressed with the depth of color this paint has. The paint looks rich and creamy in satin. 1 qt did the front of my front door that was already painted black, the back of the door that was only primed...and the two sidelites. There wasn't quite enough to do the exterior sidelites as I had hoped but will purchase another qt to finish the job. You do need to be consistent with your pressure and direction of the paint. It dries fast and any inconsistencies in the way you applied the paint will show. Overall i am happy with the color, application and finish. I Will buy this paint again if needed.

      Good product, nice shine.
      Goes on well and mostly even, it is a high gloss, so any imperfections are to be expected, however sometimes it is just impossible to get the brush strokes out no matter how careful you are. Wish it would dry just a little smoother, but overall quite satisfied with the product.

      Wonderful COVERAGE!
      We were delighted with the coverage of this product over unfinished and painted wood. We feel that we got a great value in that a two gallons went farther than expected. Will buy BEHR for all our projects.

        Wanted to only do one coat
        Behr has a reputation for being the best and that's why we bought it. We painted our fence and only wanted to apply one coat so went with Behr. It looks great and saved us time.

        Out standing value and quality
        Bought 2x1gallons white for trim and a five gallon bucket of peach for the walls. Great coverage over the old yellow in one coat. Dries very smooth and professional looking, and I am not a pro to be sure. Total price 183 minus rebate of 30 equals $153! Great stuff and will use again in 7-8 years if we change minds on color. Highly recommended.

        Poor quality
        Put this paint, tinted, over a well adhering previously painted fiberglass door. In less than three months, the Behr paint starting to blister. Old paint still adhering. Now I have to strip off Behr paint, prime and apply a different brand. Called Behr. They only offered to pay for paint and said to try again with their Behr paint.

        Very disappointing
        Paint: Behr Premium Plus Ultra Pure White Exterior Semi-Gloss Enamel. Project: Front Door. Background: Many previous paint coats, all white. All surfaces washed with Chlorox, rinsed, and primed with Exterior Primer. Final coat with paint above looked and dried blotchy (see photo). It looked better with just the primer. This is either a very poor white paint or a very bad batch.

        Home Depot paint calculator told me to buy two gallons. I used two fluid ounces. Luckily, I did not listen to the Home Depot paint calculator. The package it shipped in was a clever design. It would take some doing to make it leak in shipment. A for effort.

        Used to be good. Not these days
        Used to be a really good paint, we used their white for out exterior trim. But as the price went insanely higher the quality has gone insanely lower. See the label..paint and PRIMER. Even when using a real primer it still requires about 4 coats, sometimes 5 to get it white and not have slightly grayish type areas. Once this can is gone if we are going to spend an insane amount of money on paint, we'll find another company where the quality matches the price. Its a shame Behr was good at one time. Its becoming more of a junk paint now.

        Hi there, thank you for reviewing our paint. I’m sorry to hear that the paint isn't covering as expected.. Our Premium Plus Paint will typically cover in 2 coats over an already coated surface, while darker colors and porous surfaces may require additional coats. I’ve also reached out to you via email to learn more about your project and assist you with this further. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us, and I hope to hear from you soon! -Ronald

            This paint will last forever
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This paint has held up for over 15 years. I will not use any other brand of paint.

              The coverage is great
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The paint is easy to use. The coverage is great. It's the only paint I've found that last at the Jersey Shore. Every other paint I've tried. I've needed to scrap and repaint the next year at the shore. If any paint can last at the Jersey Shore, you need to buy that paint.
