To those of you who responded to my post about a contractor who switched from Benjamin Moore to Behr, more info. I went over to Home Depot today and asked the people there for their story on Behr. They said that a new consumer report had listed Behr #1 in study of paints weathered for five years. They also said that Behr had recently hired away three top scientists from Benjamin Moore. My painter had told me this story about the scientists as well. It had the ring to me of the kind of urban legend/propaganda that gets passed around and becomes truth. Anyone know one way or the other? Just curious.
For those who were wondering, I found the Behr on sale at Home Depot for $18.99 a gallon. The Benjamin Moore "Moorglo Softgloss medium
0962b" which the painter had been using can be found on sale for $27.99.Thanks.
