Questions & Answers

can this be used on vinyl siding
ByApr 21, 2025

Answer This Question

Hi jeff, thanks for your question. Our Ultra Exterior Paint can be used on vinyl siding; however, please keep in mind it's important to use a color that is similar to our lighter than the current color of your siding to prevent it from absorbing heat and warping. Good luck with your project! -Christina

            Does Behr still make "Premium Plus Ultra" exterior paint, or is the current choice between "Ultra" and "Premium Plus"? Thank you.

              Is this paint actually lacquer or is it an enamel? I need a real brush on black lacquer paint. Thanks

              Hi Bill, thanks for the question. Black Lacquer is just the name of the color. It is actually a water-based exterior enamel paint. Have a great day! -Ronald

                  Fantastic Paint/Primer
                  I’ve always used Dunn Edwards paint but wanted to see if Consumer Reports was right about this paint. I was not disappointed. I put two coats of Behr Ultra, semi gloss, swiss coffee on bare wood, leaving an hour between for the first coat to dry. Fantastic finish. Very impressed.

                    Excellent paint! Excellent coverage!
                    Behr paint was outstanding. We had to use only one gallon instead of the amount the painter had originally calculated b/c this paint covered so well and so thoroughly. Looks great!

                    Almost made painting enjoyable!
                    Love this paint- I did the whole stucco base of my house in 2 days. It glides on like chiffon.

                      Actually a paint AND a primer
                      Great quality, much thicker than other paints. Avoid going over it too much and glide it on in a few strokes for best texture. I could've used a separate primer for this job, since the door was dark gray. But this paint totally covered in two coats, is holding up well, and very resistant to staining. Yes, it’s a bit pricey, but it’s worth it. I love the bold color so much, I think I’m going to paint my back door with it, too. This is the only exterior paint I’ll be buying in the future.

                        The Behr Ultra paint covered flowed and covered very well leaving a very nice sheen. I used it to paint exterior wood siding on my home in southern AZ where the summer sun is brutal on just about everything. Can’t say how long it will stay like that as I painted it just 5 months ago.

                        Repainting shutters
                        Bought to change color and refresh shutters. Used the Behr Ultra paint in a Wagner Flexio 3500 sprayer. I thinned the paint some and couldn't have been more satisfied with how it covered the shutters. I applied two coats and thd finish when done was a nuce rich finish. It had a very nice shine. Really makes tge house stand out.
