I'd be inclined to say the opposite.

99 goes on and works just fine. It's guarantee is less than the others and it's cheaper.



200 is forgiving and easy to touch-up.

Re: SW Interior Flat Paint


I love the SW Super, it is about all we use. Most of work is for designers. I have used it all, 200, 400, classic 99, super but never Duration. All is good for the right job except 99, it sucks and the guy was out of Super that day and told me it was great and near as good as the SP

Since I use 99% SW paints, I like certain products exclusively for specific things. Basically, I'm picky. For example, I typically use duration for interior and exterior big surfaces. I like superpaint for exterior trim. I don't use much cashmere. I like the promar line for flats or lesser quality jobs....and a mix of all the other paints they offer for more specific applications.
How has that xp worked out for you?

Re: SW Interior Flat Paint


Im a SW guy, was using tinted masonry primer and duration home matte on new plaster, then I found Aura by BM. Self priming, any color (the darker the better) two coats/done. touch ups awesome, I dont even need to precicely cut the second coat in, I just "wash" it close, and it blends. Total uniform wall/color. I didnt want to try it but I did, and was sold. Two coats, (self priming) done.

I worked for a company for 11 years and the only flat paint we used was masterhide flat it covers better than promar 200 or 400. And it is self priming for those who want one coat deal.

Re: SW Interior Flat Paint


Durations matt should be called satin or low luster, it is not a matt imo, i cant beleive the shine it has.

Ive been a fan of the cashmere line,

Probally be trying porter paints here very soon, Im tired of sw always having a price increase, and new people that dont know anything about paint behind the counters.
