Does anyone know why so many professional painters and interior decorators recommend (and use) Sherwin-Williams paint? I am baffled.
I have been using BEHR for many many years. For "Do it yourselfers" this is my paint of choice with "One Coat Coverage"! Very easy to deal with and very durable and it has always rated at or near the top on Consumer Reports. I have used Sherwin Williams 15 years ago and was not impressed but I am sure they have improved as well.
