KILZ Porch & Patio Latex Floor Paint, Slate Gray, 1 Gallon

Pros: this is a typical, modern, high-tech paint which ticks off all the check boxes: - Does not drip or run from the brush during application - Lays on silky smooth - Easy to go back over spots to cover up brush strokes while wet, and the new paint blends in well without streaking - Hides dark paint exceptionally well - Is self leveling and shrinks slightly when dry, which helps to hide brush strokes - Dries to the touch quickly, well within an hour - Lays on a nice, satin sheen which is not slippery when wet, so a good choice for outside stairs - Brushes clean up like new with soap and water Con: - The silver gray is more like off white! When I opened the can I thought the paint wasn't mixed well but mixing did not change the color. If you have white railings you are best off with the darker grey color to provide some contrast. Only reason I kept the silver gray was rain was due in two days and I had to paint an outside repair with bare lumber, but at least the color is cool when the sun beats down. I used this Kilz paint to cover dark, rust red stairs and it hid the color with one coat! I did put on one rather heavy coat. When you first apply the paint it seems to cover extraordinarily well, then it gets a bit transparent as it dries, but when fully dried the old paint was effectively hidden with a solid, matte finish. To cover nail head holes and cracks just apply a bit more paint to the edge of the brush, then go back and dab those areas while the paint is setting. The paint does shrink when dry so you may have to dab up those areas again, but it's good that the paint shrinks in place to seal well and does not lay on too thick. This is my first experience with Kilz paint. Problem with buying paint at Home Depot or Lowes is the bewildering variety but you have to dig through the web to find reviews. By buying on Amazon it's easy to find paint with a high number of good reviews, and the free freight doesn't hurt either.

I was having issues with my ocean facing deck getting very slippery at night and the salty ocean air staining the wood, this product solved it. I placed a little grip sand in the paint tray and rolled it on the floor. 2 coats later and slip/stain issues resolved. I looks beautiful against the white deck framing and railings. When I see the salt start to leave a yellow film I simple hose it off and it looks freshly painted and pristine. I tried products much more expnensive with no luck, then I found Killz. Thank you Killz for another amazing product that performs better than described. It took me an hour per coat to apply, I waited 24 hours between each coat becuase of the moisture and salt content in the air. It looks beautiful. Simply put.... amazing product.

It's still very early in the process but I can speak to how well it looks initially and how well it went down. I bought the silver grey to go on my boat dock. Originally I had product I had applied about three years years ago that didn't hold up very well. I put this down after pressure washing off most of the old paint (5/4" x 6" PT deck boards). I first applied Rust Oleum Deck Start primer, and then this. It covered extremely well. I did the first coat with a paint pad and then a second coat with a 1/2 roller. I bought three gallons to do 2 12'x24' areas, and a 3'x30' walkway. I feared I hadn't bought enough, and couldn't get another gallon of this in time, so bought Behr deck paint for one of the sides instead. I understand the brands are owned by the same company. The Kilz went down better and covered more evenly. One gallon easily did two coats of the 12x24 section. All this to say, I happy with the choice and the lighter grey was easier on bare feet in the sun. I thought it did better than the Behr, but they look indistinguishable right now. Hopefully I get some solid years of use.

Painted garage ceiling and walls. Went on easy. Fairly easy cleanup. One coat did it, same color. Has resisted mildew, moisture, pretty low and high temperatures. Definitely worth the money. I added sand mix to cover up tiny cracks

Great coverage and easy application. Shipped in plastic sleeves that prevented damage to paint cans. Good value in patio deck paint.

This is a must for concrete!

I'm using this product essentially as a primer for my pool deck which I plan to next treat with KILZ Over Armour. It was very easy to work with, spread easily and gave a very nice finish. I measured the paintable surface at about 270 sq. feet which put it right in the middle of the range given on the can (200 - 400). I used the entire can with less than an ounce leftover. The deck was fairly weathered with some areas of darkening and some splintering. I first scrubbed with a wire brush using a bleach solution, rinsed clean then lightly sanded the most splintered areas. This removed most but not all of the dark areas. The paint covered everything nicely and resulted in one evenly colored coat. I highly recommend the product especially at the price offered. Only wish there were more color options but since I'll be covering it anyway it's no big deal. The reason I only gave it 3 stars for durability was obviously because I just put it on so I have no idea.

Great paint, It was a little bit thinner than expected, but that made it made it easy to apply and covered very well in just one coat. It's a good price for a name brand quality paint. The finish looks very nice and since I did clean and etch the steps as well as prime it as the paint recommends, I do think it's adhesion will last. I've NEVER did tuck pointing or brick work before, so if it's a little wonky, it's because it was my first time. I think the time and effort was well worth it considering it would have cost around $2,500,00+ for new steps.
