Life is full of decisions. Some are simple, such as which tools you need for that day’s job — while others are tough, like whether or not it’s time to invest in a new work truck. The same is true when it comes to paint. For example: selecting the perfect sheen to meet your client’s wants and needs. Fact is, this pro/client choice isn’t easy, as it requires determining what’s most important for the job — the luxurious beauty of a flat or the durability of a gloss. Troy Kumprey, president of TKO Painting in Hermosa Beach, Calif., discusses this topic in our BEHR PRO On the Job video series.     Kumprey says: The biggest enemy of flat paint is scuffs and smudges. I love flat paint. It looks better but …within a few months, clients…think they’ve made the wrong decision.”   In line with BEHR’s dedication to meeting the needs of professionals and their clients, we formulated BEHR ULTRA® SCUFF DEFENSE™ Interior Extra Durable Flat Paint & Primer. This innovative, 100%-acrylic coating delivers the best of both worlds — a paint and primer that provides a luxurious, flat finish, as well as extraordinary scuff and mar resistance.   BEHR ULTRA SCUFF DEFENSE Interior Extra Durable Flat Paint and Primer is tough enough for high-traffic areas. It delivers superior burnish resistance, stain-blocking and mildew resistance — ending the days of having to choose between a rich, velvety flat finish and a washable, long-lasting paint.   He continues: “We can give our clients the classic look of a flat with the durability of a gloss. It’s a game-changer.”   To find out why more pros are using BEHR® Paint, visit behrpro.com/onthejob.

Some say the kitchen is the heart of the home, and Randy Fuller, President / CEO from Fuller Painting agrees. He explains why in our latest BEHR PRO On the Job™ video series.     Fuller shares: It’s important that we get [the kitchen] right and make it look professional [with] a factory finish.”   As one of the most high-traffic areas in a home, the kitchen is often the focal point, bringing family and friends together. And as you know, high-quality products contribute greatly to a kitchen’s overall appeal and aesthetic. That’s why Fuller’s “go-to” product in the kitchen is BEHR PREMIUM® Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel. It dries to a hard, durable finish; it features tack-free film; and it keeps painted surfaces from sticking together after two hours*. This allows for a shorter down time, which “makes our homeowners happy and us happy as well,” Fuller says.   To find out why more pros are using BEHR® Paint, visit behrpro.com/onthejob.   *Darker colors may require additional dry time. Longer dry time required in cooler temperatures and higher humidity.
