I love behr dynasty in matte. I have done my doors with it. Im torn wether or not i should do a satin if it comes in Satin for my cabinets. Any suggestions im not a big fan of semi gloss. Only thing is with the matte it leaves a but of an orange peel finish. Any suggestions?

Hardener is basically an isocyanate based catalyst, crosslinker is polyaziridine. I’ve used crosslinker in various waterbased products and for the most part it is compatible. I would assume the same is true for hardeners aka isocyanate catalysts. There are a few interesting peer reviewed articles on the chemical reaction and polymerization of isocyanates catalyst on waterbased acrylic urethanes

I’ve sprayed it twice but my local pro B&M replaced it with Centurion after too many pro’s complained about it. I prefer Centurion, and it cost less. You can’t beat Renner though, but I don’t like mail ordering paint.

So many people who I've spoken to about painted cabinets say this is just a temporary, less expensive, fix and that cabinet replacement is the best solution. Heard of several different paint brands being used, some better than others, but those with painted cabinets tell me cabinet replacement is the ultimate way to go. Painting is just a band aid approach that looks good at first. Heard of and seen lots of issues with chipping, peeling, discoloration, etc...after a few years.

Thanks for taking the time to put this out. Very helpful

What area are you in? Near a big city like Atlanta, Chicago or New York?

Always very informative videos, thank you. Ive seen your review of pitt glaze wb-1, would be interested to see how it holds up against SW and BM/precat vs these.

Thank you. Just painted a house with SW emerald. The customer touched the wall with his palm and the wedding ring left a black line that doesn’t come off.

This guy's prices are ridiculous. You can do shutters, trim and boards for much less than what he says.😦

Ben Moore Satin Impervo oil base

Hi I am trying to cover my home walls with variation of colors from mid light to dark grey that my renter put on walls while it was rented out, trying to select a good quality paint from PPG that will give me a great cover since I am going to be living back in my home. I don’t want flat walls so which will give me a nice sheen look or should I get eggshell ? I would appreciate your opinion pls. TY!

Hello, according to your experience between the two products of Benjamin moor Command and Cabinet Coat which one do you choose to paint the kitchen cabinets? Thank you

Are the best brushes syntheti or natural bristle please? Also, would you use diffrent products on cupboards that have had thermafoil plastic removed, leaving MDF to seal and paint? You may not see this but thought I'd take a chance. Here in U.K, HARRIS brushes are supposed to be the best.

Do you have a recommendation for scratch resistance for cabinet?

What would be the best paint for cabinets that goes over shellac primer?

How is the finish? How smooth?

Can I use this paint over ikea furniture without using primer ?

I would never get does prices here in Miami 😮

This man works for Sherwin Williams...first to sell Duration. DURATION SUCKS. YOU ARE TOO SCIENTIFIC FOOL.

Thank you for this comprehensive review; I had not been familiar with C2, and, upon further reading, I see it's a paint for craftsman via the company's extensive color palette as well as its superb manufacturing processes that yield nonpareil coverage, durability and consistency. My only concern is buying the correct *amount* of paint for the job; C2 is not available at a bricks-and-mortar retailer near me (I don't think?), so if I need an extra gallon right away, that could be an issue ... and I don't want to purchase an extra gallon "just to be safe." Maybe I'll try a small job to discern C2's *actual* coverage in real-world conditions, and then, if the math is correct, I will expand to painting in larger areas. Thanks again!

Thank You 😊

What is the best patching and paint for Smooth Stucco for Los Angeles Weather?

Emerald goes on sale for 30% off regularly.

Great video

I live in Wisconsin and we have Diamond Vogel and Hallman Lindsay. Never used their paints but am thinking of trying them

Who missed clicked 👇

Emerald is the best but the most$$. Pro -Mar 200 is my favorite because of $$ has all the stuff in it one needs. Unless you wash walls have lots of kids. Pro Mar 200 is a professional commercial paint not usually sold to home owners

I found that spraying Emerald in heavier coats allowed it to smooth out better. Cure time is quite long, though.

Hi Dave! Thanks for this video- I was thinking of trying a Fine Paints of Europe paint in the entryway side walls of a downtown Boston apartment - I wanted a very high gloss almost mirror like surface and thought id try this- what are your thoughts for this entryway wall application? Thanks so much :)

Does the Farrow and Ball paint be purchased in the US instead of ordering?

Sherwin Williams Latitude

Is Behr Urethane Alkyd Enamel the equivalent of Advance and Emerald? It is much more affordable than either of them. It has a longer drying time than Behr Cabinet paint.

For a DIY painter doing cabinets, is there any advantage to using a clear polyurethane over any of these alkyd paints? Or a spray such as Helmsman Spar. Could an acrylic paint followed by a poly provide durability similar to the very expensive Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams cabinet and trim paints.

I bought this for painting furniture. It's expensive, but more affordable than the foufy furniture paints that cost $30 for a 16 oz container

Ultra last and aura should not be compared to emerald. They are a better quality paint. Emerald is closer to regal and manor hall. Also Ultra Spec is better than supper paint. Sherwin williams is an average paint but great at marketing. The resins used by ppg and ben moore in their ultra ladt an aura are superior to sw. I refuse to use sw paint. Over price and they make claims that are not true,

I like that Behr paint that stuff goes on good painting the bathroom with it I'm not a professional painter that stuff came out real good. I love that Behr paint I'm sorry. But every day of the week.

In my experience nothing beats Benjamin Moore…

Just painted my cabinets -First step used liquid sandpaper. -Second step 2 coats primed with BIN shellac. -Third step very light sand with 180 grit just to remove little bumps -Fourth 2 coats of Emerald paint.

Great video! Possible suggestion: links to paints (at least some of the best) or a typed list of the results below the video. Just in time for me to paint my bathroom cabinet. Kep ‘em coming!

How did you apply it? Is it possible to use HLVP to spray it or will a micro fiber mini roller do just a well. The thing with is the paint it is harder than the Advance paint plus it dries for recoat in 6 hours. Cabinet Coat tested at 2B where Advance was 6B in the Wolff-Wilborn test.

It all comes down to how the paint scores in pencil hardness test or the Wolff-Wilborn test . Cabinet coat by Insul X is 2B, Advance is 6B. with recoat time in 6 hours. Use the Insul X bonding primer.

Great video, thanks for uploading!

Love PPG paints, great reps as well.

I used pro classic on our bathroom cabinets 4 years ago with oil based primer underneath and it still looks like it was painted yesterday. I’m about to overhaul our kitchen cabinets now and found your video. Just to be safe I’ll go with the BM command. Nice videos!

Amazing video !!

Great video. Keep em coming. I used BM Command on my kitchen cabinets. Rolled the frame and sprayed the doors. Its been 2 years and still looks like its been painted yesterday. This paint is not for cabinets, its made to paint industrial posts, fire hydrant, floors for caution colors. So if you know the paint has to take those kinds of abuse, you know itll be great and protects your home cabinets. It dries fast and has a good self-leveling compound. But "PREP" is key !!! dont be lazy on that process.

I rolled mine with advance. Its held up okay considering renters abuse stuff. Whats crazy to me is i found the stix primer to be even stronger than advance. I have a few chips but the stix primer underneath the advance has no marks. The stix primer also leveled better than advance and looked like it was sprayed on. I wish they made nice colors using stix i would have just painted with that lol.

Satin for Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane is a little to dull, semi gloss on light colors. Ben Moore is fine for satin. Maybe a mohair roller is practical also.

did you test emerald flat enamel or emerald flat latex?
