ICI Paint?


Anyone heard of them? I've actually seen a lot of their stores but haven't gone in yet.

... I try to not use it, but
if I've ever had to, I suppose it's ok.

HD sells it around here, and that's a turn off for me.

I use the Devoe paints from ICI and I'm happy with them. I also use BenMoore and SW. Overall I have not had any issues with Devoe. I've said this a few times here....they make a great primer that goes on nice and even.

Re: ICI Paint?


I used Frazee and SW products for years and just recently starting using ICI products. They do make a great primer, GRIPPER, my rep has me a 64.80 a five. They stand behind their products just like any other manufacture. Try their 100 base white exterior/water/ semi, basically pure white with a few drops of black. Covers great. Sinclair oil paints are competitive, as well as the interior mid-grade flats.

Devoe Primz 220 50801 and yes via a sprayer or rolled on to me it covers the best as far as what I have used. I'm sure there are others out there but to me this one is good for the money and its performance.
