Your favorite brand of paint?

[thespeakerbox]

I tried sherwin williams and didnt like it too much. A chair rubbed against it and took a 2x2" square of of the wall. It scratched and peeled way too easy.

So whats your favorite brand of paint.

Sherwin-Williams, because my mom works for them.

Besides that, I think Behr is pretty good.

Yeah I thought something was wrong with that.

It's pretty inexpensive, and IMO, SW is overpriced - a lot of that money is for the name. Behr has better value.

Sherwin Williams is a bit overpriced, but the best paint you can buy.

 

[SpunkyJones]

Another vote for Behr.

 

[mugs]

I believe Consumer Reports picked Behr as the best value.

Our house is painted almost entirely with Behr paints we got for $5 in the "OOPS!" pile.

American Tradition Signature Series at Lowes. Expensive but it's a true one-coat application and you can't hurt that stuff.

Behr is good as well if you want quality paint at an affordable price. Home Depot is on my $hit list right now though.

according to consmerreports walmart brand 'dutch boy' was by far best for the money. I used behr, but its kind of flat and thus gets messed up easily

I thought Dutch Boy was a SW thing? Did Walmart do a shameless rip or something?

Dutch Boy is a Sherwin Williams-brand product-- however, they sell it at Walmart, Lowes, Home Depot, etc instead of at their stores.

I used Behr throughout my interior and have been very pleased with the results.

 

[amdhunter]

Lead Paint?

 

[oogabooga]

Kelly-Moore, only cause i worked for them for awhile? And when I painted i used their stuff.

Behr is pretty decent for the money. is it the greatest? no, but at the price it sure is wonderful.

 

[cavemanmoron]

put a chair rail up to protect the wall too.

 

[potato28]

The good stuff.

So whats your favorite brand of paint.

Sounds like improper prep work.

After making this thread, i went back upstairs to take a look, and i definately think that may be the problem. I noticed dark spots, they almost had small bubbles. The room was painted well over a year ago too. Funny thing is , it was painted by "professionals."

Behr

Great stuff and great price. Home Depot for the win :thumbsup:

Sounds like there was oils on the wall that didn't get washed off properly. Latex just won't bond to anything oily, regardless of paint brand.
