I need to redo some exterior wood trim, paint is half-flaked off
already. Assuming I scrape and sand it clean, any opinions on the
current versions of Benjamin Moore exterior paints?

Some of the new paints apparently claim to (a) cover in one coat, and
(b) not need primer over most surfaces. Can anyone verify that?

For use in Los Angeles, CA.

Thanks.

I personally know the owner of a local BM store and primer is always
recommended.

One coat coverage is a much over-hyped selling point IMO. The difference
between an okay or great job.

If you want to post a brand level name I can ask someone with no horse in
the race.

Hi,
Also paininting when it is too hot is not good. Ideal temp is ~15 deg.
in Celcius.
