Frequently asked questions
BEHR PREMIUM PLUS® Interior Paint & Primer provides color, hide, and a durable finished appearance, while a separate primer is designed to seal the surface, improve adhesion, and create a more uniform base before painting. On many previously painted and properly prepared interior surfaces, BEHR PREMIUM PLUS® Interior Paint & Primer can handle both jobs in one step, but difficult surfaces may still benefit from a dedicated primer.
For surfaces with medium to heavy stains, major color changes, or adhesion concerns, a product like BEHR® Multi-Surface Stain-Blocking Primer & Sealer can be a better first step because it is specifically made for stain-blocking, sealing, and adhesion. For new drywall and other porous interior surfaces, BEHR® Drywall Plus Primer & Sealer can help create a more even base coat before applying your finish paint.
