I'm telling you I've done a lot of painting projects. Interior, exterior, cabinets, etc. I've bought Sherwin Williams, top of the line Benjamin Moore (like $80/gallon paint), Glidden, PPG and nothing covers as well and as smoothly as Behr. I just adjust what level I'm buying depending on the project. I'm about to paint a shipping container and I'm going with Behr. I don't think I'll go with anything else ever again unless I need to paint match to another brand.
Blake is that 1st coat a primer or did you just paint over the red color. also I don't hear a generator? I just bought a 40 ft and just started working on mine
I've had good luck with Behr Ultra for exterior applications. My issues with the Behr Marquis were plenty on the interior of our home. I bought a new house and bought all the paint for repainting the interior... About 30 gallons. The coverage is terrible. Covering a very light gray color, I needed four to five coats in some rooms. I will say that the support was awesome. I contacted the manufacturer and they gave me a 50% refund
Hey brother I love your videos and had 2.very specific things ill like to get clarification from I got the job in the morning. And I can't sleep. Its currently 2.18 am
Hey there, we are joining 3 containers to make a Bike Shop @Markham Park in Sunrise, Fl and had a question for you. What in your experience is the best way to cover the space where the two (in our case,3) meet on the interior. For some of it we used thresholds however there is very little gap (height difference) for the rest and we could really benefit from any advice you may have. Thanks so much and we love the channel. Painted our containers pencil sketch using the paint you recommended as well as the roof paint as well.
Loving these videos, thanks so much for all the content! One questions - how much paint do you need for a 20ft container, 5 gallons- 10gallons? (exterior only) We are DIYing a campground bathhouse out of a shipping container, and painting it black. Thanks!
Why paint it black? I'm genuinely curious. Since black absorbs lots of heat, it is the last color I'd use. Consider painting it green, or colors to help camouflage it to the environment it'll be in. Or something beautiful & colorful to stand out. At the least, lighter colors.
I love this channel. I hope to build my own container home someday. Would have appreciated keeping this video shorter by cutting out some of the filler shots/audio. Regardless, I learned a few things! Thanks! Keep it up!
Oh, interesting your challenges with Sherwin paints as those are "suppose" to be the best, thanks for the heads up.. Truth...prep takes loads of time! Paint color looks great with the sheen gives it a gunmetal finish. Thanks!

What did your prep the rust with?
Lindsay!! ❤️
What was the colour. Also, what did you use on the top of the container so it wasn’t as hot I think he said.
Thank you for the info. What size tip are you using on the spray gun?
I’ll take that 20% code. 😂Painting mine tomo

how much paint did it take , I have a 20ft- er
How have you leveled the containers temporarily?
Do you need to dilute the paint when using the sprayer?
But I've heard marine white paint for the heat reflection. no? Cheap high gloss exterior paint ok?
How many gallons did you used?
how long does it take to dry?
Looks sweet! Great color choice, and yeppers it's gonna rock! Blessings
So how much paint did you use
No mask while spraying enamel paint?
I've watched every video. Can you keep putting up the links for the products that you use and the tools that you use?
What about cathodic protection?
What are you using to prime the repair spots?
Any spray metal primer will work

So paint over the stickers? No mention
We normally take the stickers off. Some people leave them.
Isn't darker colors going to heat up the container more?
seems like it yes I have owned a black car and a white car
Hey what happened with that tiny container home that was going to be given away? The go fund me one.
Sir I want to buy a container from you 😭
Lipstick on a pig with that used container. Nice color though
Blake shouldn’t you be wearing a mask?! Just sayin’…
Seemed like alot of trigger pull and let off at 6:50, like you said not to do. Good thing you arent painting automotive.
Get away with half the insulation? Better just use enough insulation and turn of the ac a little more or even better don't install one
Good information. Massive doses of motion sickness unfortunately made it unwatchable.
