Does anyone here have any experience with Behr Ultra Premium Plus? - with the paint and primer in one? I usually use the cheapest stuff with a rental property, but this time around I thought I would just go with the good stuff in hopes that I will be able to just clean the walls between tenants and not have to paint between tenants (which seems to be every year)- a contractor friend recommended just stop using cheap paint.

So- I started rolling, and I found this stuff goes on THICK-- I was not priming the walls as I cleaned them up and is white on white-- but if I was priming, I would have been using the same amount of paint and primer combined- maybe even a little more- and I noticed that cuts on corners and between wall and ceiling- you can definitely see a difference where the roller went and where the cut it, so I have to touch up with with a brush.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

It's not the good stuff, sonny--it's average and satisfactory inside.
Exterior use doesn't last long since Uncle Son beats the living asswater
outa it.

No experience with the Behr primer/paint combo. It has been around
for years now so it may have proven itself. I've used Behr paint for
20 years, in my former rental homes, and primary residents -- both
interior and exterior (elastomeric for stucco). Completely happy with
Behr paint. Used it by brush, roller and paint sprayer. Mix it well
with a drill and paddle and use a nylon strainer bag to transfer is to
another bucket. Mix it now and then during application. I'm happy with
it.

My wife wanted to paint some wooden kitchen cabinets and just got some
paint when we were at Home Depot.

It was Behr and she said it did a good job.


I looked at the cabinets and it covered quite well.
