ProMar on ceilings? ouch.
ProMar has the worst "covering" ability of almost any white I have tried. Be better off with Eminence or SuperPaint.

I find that it doesn't really matter. Most of the time you have to put two coats on. One coat of super paint flat is flashy. Looks pretty bad.. Especially on a low ceiling in the light. We would love to find a one coat dead flat ceiling paint that didn't cost more than $25

I'm in the same boat with ceiling paint, found 15 gals of promar 200 flat and bought it up, haven't seen any since. Used it on a big ceiling this week and it wasn't too bad but I'd much rather masterhide. 😢

Eminence costs less than $25/gal.

Eminence costs less than $25/gal.

I was so tired of all the different models of paint from S-W, and others, that I scaled down to 3 levels. Pro Mar, Superpaint and Duration/emerald. All others are too redundant to me.
Super velvet has been my goto for the last yr or 2. Love the sheen. Love the user friendliness. Lately though, due to availability, I’ve used the super air sanitizing( harmony re brand) and am liking that. Also been using a lot of the emerald flat and matte too and liking that, however for a flat wall paint seems too expensive and still scratches up pretty easily.
Now I only use promar flat on ceilings and nothing else, yet due to the big freeze it’s hard to get that now.
Not into 40-50$ gal ceiling paint like the BM ceiling paint or emerald flat.
I’ve also used the, ahmmmm, Behr scuff defense flat on walls and pleasantly surprised by its finish.
All about keeping options open in paint lines and availability right now. It’s hard to put all eggs in one basket.

How would you compare the Behr Scuff Defense flat to Regal Matte?

I've been using the SP velvet on commercial work lately. Its a tad sheen-ier than I'd like in a residence, but good for what we are doing.

Its availible, which is more than you can say about most everything else.

I can’t. I don’t use the regal matte. I will say the Behr is a nice matte. Way less sheen than the SP velvet. More than the BM ceiling though.

Used SP velvet today and I can say it brushes nicer than the Behr, which seemed to drag a bit and go a shorter cut.

Yes, Behr drags. And the odor closes in on you big time. These things keeps us away. Certainly not the price, coverage or appearance. And I know it has some durability.

I actually think their scuff defense smells lightly sweet. Kinda like the Superpaint air sanitizing paint. And not too obnoxious like the Marquee line, yuck. However for the price point it is now a viable alternative due to supply issues with the other brands. Is what it is….
