ah this is old news, but why do people pay more for lowes premium?

there is no comparison

I would trust kilz colors from walmart over any other paint on the
market in it's league

I always get one coat coverage with kilz colors

I never get one coat coverage from any other paint (unless it's the
same color)

and kilz is cheap.. im not talking about the stain and mold blocker,
walmart carries a regular tintable base

do yourself a grand favor, use kilz paint. yule thank me!

Agreed,

Consumer reports rated it right up there with behr premium plus and the more
expensive brands.

I've used it and have no complaints. I like the pourable plastic jugs to
instead of the tin paint can.

Doesn't stink either.

My only experience with Kilz resulted in my wife passing out on the
ladder because of poor ventilation while painting, probably her fault,
but no other paint I have worked with would have the same result.

Nonsense. She was probably pregnant.

My wife, on the other hand, was painting with a well-known brand and the
wicker chair on which she was standing collapsed. She fell and broke her
arm!

Damn "name brand" paint.

Why do I have to keep repeating this? There is no such thing as "Kilz
paint" any more than there is any such thing as an "animal" that is not a
dog or cat or some specific animal. This is like saying that you saw a dog
bark one time, therefore all animals bark.

sure there is

suppose i send you to walmart to get me some paint and you ask me what
kind would I like...

how will you know what kind I want if I dont tell you cause we all know

ALL PAINT IS NOT CREATED EQUAL

so how would you know unless I said, Jeffc I would like some kilz brand
paint

so please jeffc.. carry yourself to bed

what is your point?

are you one of them old timers who can't understand the concept that
kilz is more than just a stainblocking agent?

no.. they have a linei of colors now.. has nothing to do with enzyme
killing properties..its just paint.

:D

what kind of paint do you like?

don't tell me no names though.. you don't believe a paint company
should put labels on their buckets

they should FORCE you to buy your groceries like this next time.

just stuff in cans and boxes with NO NAMES on the packages.

My point, moron, is that there is no such thing as Kilz paint. There is
Kilz Original, Kilz General Purpose, Kilz 2 Latex, Kilz Original Low VOC,
Kilz Exterior, Kilz Premium, etc. Notice that none of them are called
"Kilz". That's because they are all different. So talking about "Kilz"
doesn't tell you anything about the paint. Shellac? Latex? Water stain
blocking? Oily stain blocking? Interior? Exterior? We don't know,
because all you said is "Kilz". You might as well say "Go to the store and
get me a box of Nabisco." QED

oh stoppit, that's ignorant

you want me to say..

I just "latexed" my ceiling... that's obscene

nobody talks like that..

if someone told me they just "latexed" their ceiling I would think they
put a condom on it

I don't give a rip what kilz calls dey paint, paint is paint is paint

next thing you''ll be telling me, "you don't *paint it on you *brush it
on"

You need to learn the difference between primer and paint. Just because
the only thing you've seen is Kilz primer, doesn't mean there isn't Kilz
latex PAINT!! Moron!

Look closely at the label. Who own's Kilz? Could it be Behr? Could it
be Masco which owns both Behr & Kilz? Think there might be a connection
between Behr and Kilz?

I never noticed who owns them

but I tell ya one thing, I was really really impressed with the creamy
coverage.

I took a room from a dark hunter green to a light tan or so...
it actually covered in one coast, plus a little touch up here an there

I would have NEVER got that from lowes premium American Tradition?...

well lemme get off here, I need to latex my living room

You're an idiot. You would say Sherwin Williams ProMar 400. Or SW
SuperPaint. Or SW Cashmere. But not "Sherwin Williams paint".

Maybe not. Some quality paints have very high acrylic content and will
cover in one coat. Like Sherwin Williams SuperPaint for example. Now, it
won't do it in some of the brighter reds and yellows, but normally it is one
coat paint. Those who don't buy quality paint won't believe it, but there
it is. Now SuperPaint costs $28/gallon or so, and some people can't
understand why you'd want to spend more than $14 on a gallon of paint.
Well, if you want to buy 2 gallons of $14 paint instead of 1 gallon of $28
paint, and then paint your room twice in a row, go right ahead.

Is kilz pronounced "kills" as in, a good exchange of ideas like this
just kilz me. Or is it "kilts" as in, they forgot to put on their
kilz, which with the bagpipes failing to provide adequate coverage,
embarrassed everyone,

A painter was giving me an estimate and every time I'd say "kills",
he'd correct me by saying, "kilts".

use a Z

say Kills
