Painted my wood siding with marquee starting about 7 years ago. Still looks brand new. Went on with one coat coverage.

[@Dan4052]

Indeed, I did find you very Informative and smooth! Well done! I would be most grateful if you would be so kind as to offer some brief thoughts on sheen level for exterior home using the Behr Marquee. I have a lot of shade and my 80 year old wood siding is full of imperfections. I'm probably the last wood holdout in my neighborhood, but it's still solid and I love it; so much craftsmanship. Is flat too low? What do you suggest in the Marquee? Many, many thanks. Dan in Ohio.

Painted my house many years ago using Sears paint that was on sale for $8.88 a gallon. 20 gallons for under $200 bucks. Inflation sucks!

[@diypainting]

That's Awesome!

@@diypainting Yep, same here, Sears Weather beater! If I remember correctly. Don't remember the price though.

I sold it back in the day and YEPPERS what you say is very true. They must be putting gold in it now days is all I can figure. I'm sorry, I don't care how much R and D and a little bit of tech you put in it, it usually comes down to titanium dioxide levels and I sure don't see how even 40 years can have inflated that much as in three figures a gallon.

[@equipman811]

That Sears paint, their top to the line was fantastic paint. You could get 15-20 years. I don't know what company made it but wish I could still get it.

[@Redfour5]

@@equipman811 I worked in the paint Dept. in the mid-70's (hardware and electrical also store 1540 (speedway/Indianapolis IN). Sears made their OWN paint with in house labs and manufacturing. They took great pride in it and having the most advanced tech. We once had a presentation on it and the people who made it scientists, everyone was really proud of their produce. they had fields with open samples on wood outdoors some on for like a decade and they would do tests on it of all kinds looking for deterioration and then trying to figure out how to keep it from happening... They had comparisons from the other companies and the Sears stuff was consistently better.

[@NurseEmilie]

Thanks for this information !!

[@AngelValentin-v3v]

Your forgetting PPG paint also they have been around longer and also have great products. At the end it all depends on your prep work as long as you do good prep work you can use a good quality 100% acrylic paint and it would look great.

We plan to paint the exterior of our home this summer. This information is extremely helpful. Thank you for taking the time to produce this video and give actual data, rather than 'only' your opinion. We will be taking a serious look at the Marquee, based on your recommendation (I've had great success with Behr products in the past, so there is no hesitation using it in the future). You have a new subscriber; thanks again for the info.

[@roncurtin909]

I have been painting for over 20 years and this guy does the best job of explaining exterior paints and why they are good. Agree with his choices but would put Behr Ultra in 1st place. Reason being is it applies smoother. Marquee dries too fast and tends to leave roller marks.

[@diypainting]

Thanks for the comment!

[@Kjj10177]

What do you think about the rhino exterior paint is it really durable?

[@Dan4052]

I thought this chap did a really nice job with this video! Enjoyable to listen to, easy to follow, succinct, to the point, full of good information, and pleasant. Just getting ready to paint my house this summer, and he sold me on Behr Marquee.

[@oldschoolcars3318]

So sorry to disagree with you. He is speaking from DIY point of view and does not get to see the results of a large variety of projects over decades. The Behr exterior Product simply does not hold up. Even on our south face we saw Mildew in the light colored soffits within a year and a half and I went back to Benjamin Moore. Behr likewise cakes and clumps over solid new primed substrates when applied in low humidity high temp environments: NOT a winner. as mildew with Behr is not the only color continuity issue: fade and chalk are common in deep sun exposure facades. IMHO His price arguments are nonsense as every one holds sales and a smart consumer can time his DIY buy. As a homeowner, I would rather buy Moore once on sale and do the labor once than put up with the Big Box nonsense and the repaints that comes with Behr. Moore is more expensive for a reason: its because TIME IS MONEY. This is a friendly guy who may not highly value his own time.

[@tlk50970]

I own a high end painting company also high end faux finishing company. Behr colors definitely change more over the years. When we do touch ups years later Behr has the most color change/oxidation. Sherwin williams Emerald and BM Aura are better paints, but yes, more expensive. But…. Labor and time is most expensive. So that extra cost, IF PREPPED CORRECTLY, is worth it if you’re getting 12 years vs 8 years. I’ve used Behr for a few years but had to stop when we would go back for touch ups or repairs and the colors always faded. S-W and BM are most pros go to. We only use Emerald and Shermax or big stretch caulking.

[@Bacnow]

I 100% agree with you! I am a GC and my paint contractor will only use SW or BM products based on the similar sentiments! If the customer insists on using an inferior product then my PC will politely pass on the job! He’s a perfectionist and doesn’t want his name associated with something that’s not going to last!

[@kjl6138]

Thank you for sharing! Some contractors told me they will use a roller and some said they will spray on my aluminum siding, which do you recommend? One contractor said you have to thin the paint for a sprayer?

[@lee-yz6ze]

Take a sample and tint the paint to the failed color? Repaint it corner to corner? Or are you trying not to even buy paint at all? And just use old saved paint?

[@sylviaseri4235]

As a homeowner for the past 40 years, I have painted with BM, SW, n Behr paints. The minuscule differences between the high end paints and Behr paints do not justify 2x or more of the costs, especially since most people repaint their homes, change the colors, every 4-5 yrs.

Yes they do.I just purchased at Home Depot and when they mix the paint they can save all the paint info

[@johnbarr6616]

Sherwin Williams products are guaranteed to fade per SW, at an acceptable rate of 50% in the first year due to their use of generic pigments. This is per SW’s own admission. Their lifetime coatings are prorated. The lifetime per SW is 8 years and is non-transferable with original sales receipt required for a material only warranty that is extremely difficult to collect . Installer error is largely to blame on most installs. Bang for the buck....Benjamin Moore Regal High build. A fantastic product based on the old MorGlo from years ago. Aura is the top of the line but you will get years of service with bridging capabilities on repaints and a high build product for new construction in a mid priced line. It works! Tips from a 37 year veteran of the painting industry, not affiliated with any manufacturer. Good luck.

[@dennis17116]

First off sherwin is a hydrophobic paint and only one on the market. It literally cleans itself unlike Aura. You can’t even comparing the two. Emerald is the most durable paint in the market. I’ve used all these and emerald as far as durability is the best. If you painting a house on the coast where salt is a factor definitely Emerald over aura.

[@teaganwindago3132]

I could not disagree with you more. I have Bear results of the paint failing and rotten wood falling off my house. I'm doing my best to be nice here.

[@scottswail3176]

That may be less about the paint and more to do with other moisture issues in your woodwork. Look to see where moisture is coming in and seal it (caulk or other). Is it coming from inside the house (e.g., attid?). Those issues (rotten wood and chipping paint) typically are because of moisture behind the coat. Moisture is getting in from somewhere, and often through the back or through cracks (e.g., joints). A thought.

Hi Ryan: 1st time watching your videos, and love them. I'm a retired GC and used to have a painting business in the 70's. I have very old oak cabinets that I will paint white. Do you still recommend Benjamin Moore Advance. Going with Satin and using Smart Prime. I will brush everything as I don't have a sprayer. Thank You

[@bignorwegian]

Bob, I am not a professional painter, just a guy who likes to do DIY projects. We are currently remodeling our laundry room. 1995 golden oak cabinets. Based on other KZbin videos (as today is the first I've seen Ryan's videos), we chose Benjamin Moore Advance. It looks fantastic. We used Zinsser Bin primer (shellac), which dried in about 20-30 minutes and gave us a rock solid surface to paint on; we did do a light sanding between the primer and the first coat of paint. Best of luck on your project. We hope to paint the exterior of our home this summer, so will be taking a serious look at the Behr Marquee, based on Ryan's recommendation.

[@krisward2366]

[@stevenshook3348]

$75 a gallon for Emrrald RR at my local SW store and has been since it came into the retail market. His quoted price seems bogus.

[@HygroHybrid]

@@stevenshook3348 it is, but I'm sure he's just trying to quote a general price to appeal to everyone is retail/contractor. I'm a contractor so I pay half of whatever the advertised price is. Consumers don't know this, but that's why it pays to just hire a contractor if you need a house painted. You should be getting better products and prices. Now ,if Juan is painting a house for $2k don't expect good products/work to be done. Quick flip sure, but not on my house. 👍👍

[@ferraridan4883]

Great straightforward comparison ! One thing I love about SW is their LRV values are on the back of their paint cards. I've never found anyone in the paint department at Home Depot to even know what LRV means. Critical when painting plastic wood such as Azek and others. We use a lot in exterior trim areas of upper end homes in our company.

[@JuanRodriguez-iz4pu]

Painting over 34 yrs and Marquee is the best for exterior paint projects if we talk about durability even when many painters saying that Behr paint products runs easily and to be honest i disagree with all these guys because we as painters should know how heavy a coat of paint can be applied with the sprayer machine so if you exceed that limit any paint will run so its about the painter the only thing i don't like about Behr products is that you only can buy it at the Home Depot and we all know Home depot has the worst customer service and they will make you wait in purpose if you complain about waiting time, I complain a lot of times but i make a lot of noise so they can be expose them to customers and you force the store manager to do something about it , when someone don't care about my waisted time waiting i feel that they are disrespecting me.

[@worldsstongeststrains983]

Emerald is meh. SW Superpaint is my go to for SW exterior paints. Behr Masonry, stucco and brick is my reasonable cost recommendation to my customers. It’s affordable, 1 coat and a backroll and the CPVC ratio leans towards higher pigment and less fillers.

[@damirmihmic1390]

Clearly your used to using cheap paint. Please people do some more research and not just this review 😂😂 you really said paint from Home Depot is better then Sherwin Williams and Ben Moore . This is the reason people don’t trust painters who actually know what their talking about!

You do realize Behr is a paint company that operates out of Home Depot definitely not a “homeowner” or a cheap paint lol. There price are low because they don’t have to pay for overhead like SW. But all 5 are good

@@curtisgomez7352 actually yes Home Depot paint is crap they do not have a heated warehouse 90% of the time their paint has issues and doesn’t last hence why Sherwin Williams owns Behr and Valspar and only sells it at Home Depot and Lowe’s and not at their actual store

I remember about 1980 in college. I worked at Sears, Employee #13805, (store 1540/Lafayette Square/Speedway Indiana) who at the time, had the best paints to be honest. I still remember stock numbers... Let's see 11469 our best paint roller and 33015... Weatherbeater white... Scarred for life I am... I always dreaded spring and all the over winter frozen latex paint coming in. "Something is wrong with it." Yep, you stored in the unheated garage didn't you. Ohh, that classic few inches of clear yellowish liquid then the 2/3rd of granulated color below... AND, fall when people would come in wanting exterior paint and the temps were falling into the freezing range. We would warn every one of them that if they put it on below around 45 degrees they would have problems in the future as it wouldn't cure correctly, but hey they knew better. IN the spring they'd be coming in, "You sold me bad paint..." as it was coming off the wall outside after having not been cured and then freezing on the wall during the cold night... Sure it made it to Spring then came off. WE finally stopped selling it after a certain date... Oh and and the people dragging the "INterior" paint cans into the store after painting it on the outside, oh that Sunflower Yellow, I don't know what hold it had on people... I coulda got it for you in weatherbeater but hey, that was twice as expensive (like 15 bucks in 1980 a gallon) vs that INterior paint. But, hey I painted this on my house and it washed off first storm. YEP, see where it says INterior, like INside, not outside? See that large lettering on the back "For use on interior applications ONLY"? We always tried to talk to people, but on busy Saturdays they were lining up at the registers... We won a national award once for sales... AND, since we were Sears, it was "Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back..." and we did it... But we did draw the line at paying for labor and stupidity...unless they were really a KAREN (they didn't have that name back then but.., if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...) and we'd call the manager down and he'd give them money for their labor and stupidity... They really had to be Aholes thought to get it. But for the regular people, they remembered our little polite lectures on the proper use of paint and the fact we DID give them their money back. And I also worked in Paint in the early 70's high school before going to the Marines who paid for my FREE college and those thousand of four gallon boxes of paint I hefted gave me the best upper body strength and helped me get through boot camp like a champ...

I would really like to use a flat paint if possible. Is there a behr exterior paint that does better with a flat sheen? Would you really recommend not using a flat finish? I have a painted stucco home and I think flat would likely look better unless it looses a substantial amount of durability, durability is obviously important as well. Also, Dollar tree has great cheap painting supplies if anyone needs good quality cheap angled brushes

[@dollymadeson3963]

Behr paint sucks. You get what you pay for. Stay away from prime and paint especially. Benjamin Moore is the best paint and best colors. You cannot pick a BM color and gave it mixed at Home Depot as Behr and get the same color. The undertones are different. For young families Sherwin W is ok. BM is the best hands down. Mine lasted 13 years and I only painted to change colors. Revere Pewter is a great neutral and is often chosen by designers.

[@igodoresearch]

Used Behr twice because my wife wouldn't listen to me. Never again. It takes more behr paint and more coats to do what Benjamin More does with less pain and coats. Also behr color fades over time. Save time, money and work less use Benjamin More not behr.

[@diypainting]

Sorry you had a bad experience with it. I've had nothing but great experiences with Behr. It's priced right and their products are amazing. If a paint took more than two coats, I'd question if you used their lowest grade paint and ask what color were you painting with? I've found Behr Ultra on up through Marquee and Dynasty to cover every color in 2 coats. Behr is also proven to be one of the best against fade and scuffing.

Hello from Canada. I have been following your Channel for a while, and I must thank you for the quality of information provided. Using your videos (tutorials) I gained sufficient confidence to repaint my kitchen and bathroom cabinets, and things turned out amazingly great. I bought a beginner HVLP sprayer(fuji semi-pro) and have zero regrets. Now I want to tackle my metal garrage doors with my HVLP sprayer/turbine. Both Homedepot and Behr Canada say that none of their paints can be thinned. Sherwin-W suggested their Latitude paint at about $140 a gallon (Canadian) It's too costly for me. Do you have any advice or other recommendations... ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for following the channel, much appreciated! Many paints will recommend not to thin, main reason is if they do recommend, then they have to warranty and it doesn't do them any good to let people add things to the paint then still warranty it. In all reality, you can usually thin these paints 10% with zero issues. But, exterior paints do tend to be pretty thick, you may have to thin even more to get it to spray from your HVLP. An airless sprayer like the Wagner Control Pro 150 might be a better option. You can buy them here: diypaintingsupply.com/collections/exterior/products/control-pro-170

@@diypainting thanks for the info. I proceed using BM element guard thinned at 20%.. with my little 2 stage hvlp turbine, it took a little effort, but I got the job done. I did 3 coats, although 2 coats may have been ok. Thanks for getting back to me. keep on making these awesome videos.!

I now use Rodda Cover coat XL, these brands that are mentioned are garbage compared to the Rodda

Rodda fades very fast in my experience. Hard to match after just a few years.
