I have seen people say that Behr ceiling paint is not a dead flat. That depend on the specific Behr product you are using.

The Ultra is not a dead flat, however, the standard Premium Plus is as dead of a flat as it gets.

For me, the Behr paint shown left is a great, in many cases, one coat coverage paint.

I wonder what it goes for a gallon and what is one Promar 200 and the other promar 400 equivilant?

Yeah I wonder if Promar is better.

Behr paint leaves a spongey bubbled texture on ceilings & never levels out like other paints.

It is a dyi paint, that is why they have to make commercials about it so the homeowner will use it.

So it has acoustical qualities?

Killz Pro X 110 (Black Label) Dead Flat. Best ceiling paint I have ever used. Covers, easy to roll, smells good and stays wet longer than any ceiling paint I have used.

Behr ceiling paint is just to white for my taste. And a little thick.

 

[Oden]

I honestly never bought paint at the Home Depot. Cept for an occasional spray can. oh Yeh and the oil based Kilz you can still get there and I do still like that stuff for certain things.

 

[vermontpainter]

KILZ makes the deadest flat. Anything else is a wannabee.

 

[Oden]

one time, it was a new school, well one wall was specked for this special paint, it was a backroumd for taking pictures. It was blue. man that was the flattest paint I ever used.

it's really got nothing to do with the topic really.

 

[TJ Paint]

Flat is so easy. Come on guys! This is a joke. Flat, dead flat... are guys freakin serious?

If you have problems getting a flat to look good get out of the business now.

 

[vermontpainter]

Not all flats are created equal.

 

[matt19422]

Not all flats are created equal.

Fact

 

[TJ Paint]

[vermontpainter]
