    I don't do much exterior painting. I'm rebuilding deck stairs with railings and I picked up Sherwin Williams solid stain that was on sale to save money on my job. My buddy told me to check reviews and they're horrible. I was originally going to use Benjamin Moore and after doing some research, I'm going to return the other stuff. Thanks for the review. I really value someone with almost 30 years experience and their opinion. You saved me from using a bad product.

    Ben Moore is huge in new England lots of availability . The high Build Moore guard is a killer paint and is a go to for many skilled painters. 75% of exterior work here is over cedar siding be it shingles or claps. Most re-paint work here has lots prep work there aren't many hardi plank homes here. Aura Satin line especially the white is a beautiful finish. Good review as usual.

  • @patrickbuchanan4444
    @patrickbuchanan4444 ปีที่แล้ว

    Upon recommendation of a professional painter, he said to use Mad Dog primer as the base coat then use Benjamin Moore Aura as the top coat. This was on virgin T1-11 wood siding using a combination of roller and brush. The finish is superb and was amazed at the quality of how well it looks.

    Benjamin Moore makes the best paint period, IMO. Unfortunately I recently moved to Georgia and it seems like very few people either not know about it because it seems like everyone is using Sherwin Williams and Home Depot. Only two clients house I’ve worked in that they bout Benjamin Moore paint. Not much dealers here either but luckily ACE hardware is carrying it so that’s good for me.

  • @jjk4719

    Just wanted to say I love all your videos. Been slowly repainting our entire home here in Nor Cal, all with Aura. Thank God the BM Local Paint store here is giving me a Contractor rate (20 Gallons later). I will echo what a few people have said already, the re-coat time says 1 hour on all my paint. I've looked at all, matte, egg, and satin. All says 1 hour. This paint is absolutely amazing. Most of our home is Egg Shell, but I will say even their Matte is very washable. I wish you'd do one about painting stair railing. We have white railing and gonna paint them soon. I noticed you had one old video, but would love to see an updated one from a DIY prospective. Maybe brushing it with BM Advanced. Thanks again for all the videos, I love them! PS.... Because of you, I've also purchased the Xtend+Climb ladder with the ladder aid pro. Worked great and great tips!

    Here in Ontario Canada,I have used pretty much all brands available and pricing I pay about $57 contractor pricing for good quality paints.When it comes to Aura its standard across the board wherever you buy it because the price is the same but for an extra $20,it’s worth it every penny because you save a lot of time and how many you have to use and for me it’s worth paying $77 a gallon because I make back up in time saving.So if your customers can afford it,it’s worth it

Most paint today are all washable but some are not scrubbable. High end paint will do the job! Cheers! The gooseneck guy ! Don🤟

    I had a bad experience with Aura. I was doing a sunset orange over a not very dark beige. My supplier suggest Aura to make sure it covered in 1 coat. It took 3 coats. I was cursing and swearing on the 3rd coat as I worked till midnight to get it done. I never used Aura again. I'll stick with their Regal line, which has never failed me yet. To be clear, I am a professional and I know how to paint. It was the product, not me. 😉

    BM has great coverage, it looks good and is durable, plus has excellent color retention even in dark colors. Other paint companies have a hard time matching because BM adds far more pigment to their paints than others. Aura interior sags very easy, not so much exterior. The only negative in my opinion is it is a dirt magnet, and doesn’t wash off very easy.

      @John: this is what it says on the Aura datasheet: "Do not paint vinyl with any
      color darker than the original color or having a Light Reflective Value (LRV)
      of less than 55 unless it is in the Benjamin Moore approved Colors for Vinyl
      palette and comports with the specific vinyl manufacturer guidelines when
      making the color selection and painting. Otherwise, the color will absorb
      more heat, possibly causing the siding to warp, resulting in additional repairs
      and expenses. "

    @joshsawyer2622 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love Benjamin Moore paints and stains but this is my least favorite of all of them. IMHO it is overpriced and overkill on the majority of the jobs I do. It requires too much of an application learning curve and can be tricky for people who haven’t used it before. It is definitely not a pick up and go paint. Spraying it might be totally different than your typical cut and roll application. On interior, if you cut in a room first and then come back into your cut lines while rolling the fields it can pull the paint where you cut in right off the wall. I doubt that will happen every time but it has happened to me. Also because it dries so fast it coagulates on your brushes, cut pots, and roller trays much faster which then separates onto the roller and gets on the wall so you’re wasting time picking paint boogers off the wall and changing out roller covers and tray liners.
    Regal Select interior and exterior paints are just as good and less expensive. They are much more user friendly, provide excellent coverage, durability, washability and have the same mildew resistant and anti microbial properties as Aura. This is all just one painters experience though. Again...glad to see you trying out and promoting more Benjamin Moore products on your channel. Must have gotten tired of SW constantly reformulating everything 😜

      Spot on. Aura interior has a big learning curve. You need to let the cuts dry fully before you roll. No wet edge technique. And the drying on brushes/rollers is also spot on. That can be mitigated by use of the Benjamin Moore Extender (BM version of Floetrol). Aura interior is a great paint. But it needs Extender and special technique.

      Aura for trim Regal for siding and walls for all the reasons you stated.

      With the aura you have to brush it, let it dry and then roll it. You can actually do the reverse because it's such a good paint but the key is you can't brush it in and then roll it 20 minutes later

    I don't like it , I will never buy it again. BUT only because it dryes
    way to fast . You cannot take your time with this paint. It's great for professionals , but if you are not then you can't keep up with it , it drove me crazy, so for that reason I will never buy it again, and it's very expensive ,but I do love their other paint and I always buy Benjamin Moore paint

      Put the Benjamin Moore Extender in it. Very inexpensive, and goes a long way to fixing this problem.
