Does All-In-One Paint ACTUALLY Work?!

- Also answering the question - do I need to sand something before I paint it? Using a glossy piece of furniture, I tested:
- Painting directly over it without sanding, with a paint and primer in one.
- Painting directly over it without sanding, with primer then paint.
- Sanding and then painting over it, with a paint and primer in one.
- Sanding and then painting over it, with primer and then paint.
Which turned out the best? Check out the whole video to find out!

The timing of this video is perfect. Going paint shopping tomorrow so your insight is super valuable to me.
You really helped me with this video. My contractor gave me an estimate of $3000 to paint my kitchen cabinets using Promar. Forget it. I'll do it myself with heirloom traditions. Thanks again!
Excellent comparison and long term durability test. Well done.
Great video and perfect timing. I've been wondering about this very subject. We are about to refinish our upper cabinets. Perfect thank you.
I've often wondered, but never tested this theory out. I have heard both sides so many times by big box stores' paint departments that I didn't know what to believe. Thank you so much for doing this!
I may be off topic here, but awesome job on your video/audio editing skills!! The improvement just over a few months (comparing both halves of the video) is amazing. Love your channel!
Wow, Melissa! That was very informative. Thank you. BTW You look absolutely fantastic for just having a baby. You're an inspiration to others.
Great video. There are times when sanding is a huge pain, especially for certain shapes like trim. While sanding first is always best,, it's nice knowing I can skip it sometimes.
Excellent comparison. Always wanted to compare the differences.
I find Traditional all in one Paint a WOUNDERFUL All In One Paint I am doing a very expensive real cowhide mid century couch with the cost about 15,000 and besides the tandem which was quite problem I’ll just decided to go ahead and order their primer easy Peezy and it turned out great! Thank you for your tutorial and I love All In One Paint. I happen to also buy the brushes that attach to your drill for cleaning heavy duty dirty wood and it’s so easy to do very good results squeaky clean and then are used my restore and I’ve had no problem with .grand babies toddles & children dogs, etc. Happy new year and may you be blessed with joy, peace, and Nappiness.
Excellent vidio very informative allways learning something new from your videos thank you for sharing
Perfect video very helpful.
Thanks Melissa I will buy the all in one❤
Thank you for this it is so helpful.
Nice job 👍
Another great video Stay safe and healthy and warm 👍
good informative video
I have a buddy that paints expensive houses in the Minnetonka area and he told me that primer is really just cheap paint. It isn't really necessary on most jobs unless you are really having a problem getting your paint to stick and hold.
I must say Melissa, you look great! You don’t look like you’ve recently had a baby at all, much less are the mother of four!!
That said, I did have a quick question about the sanded portions. You may have stated it in the video and I just missed it, and if so I apologize, but what grit were you using to sand before painting/priming? Also, how long did you sand as well?
I sanded for about ten minutes each drawer with a 120 grit sandpaper
Have you thought about Solar power upgrades for your home? We'd like to see that.
For the next test, which product covers up scratches in paint the best!
If you really want a durable paint over glossy, melamine or ikea you should use shellac based primer. Like zinsser b.i.n.
Use Sherwin Williams Pro Block oil base primer and you wouldn't need to sand. Why on earth would anyone want to sand out a smooth surface varnish to begin with. In doing so you only expose the stain which eventually will bleed through. Latex based primers just to stand up to the task.
is the consistency similar to whipped cream?
Where do you buy the Finish All paint?
Good video. Just FYI, Killz 2 is a poor quality primer for this type of application. What would be needed on a laminate surface is an adhesion promoting primer. Killz 2 is ok for basic priming jobs like drywall or color changes.
I thought Promar 200 was for walls and it's basically a low VOC paint and not recommended for other uses.
Thank you for the video. I did notice there is a color difference on camera between the sanded and non-sanded drawers. Did you also see that? Or is it that the Promar paint color is different than all-in-one paint?
It's that the two products are different paint colors 😊
Did you use the same white shade and finish on both sides because the all in one is way brighter
No they're completely different brands of paint lol. You can't get the same shade
@@WelcometotheWoodsBlog ok ha. Thanks for the response and video. I personally am not a fan of painting and will pay more for fewer steps so you just saved me about 10 years of patience on my life ha
We are in the midst of painting with the expensive all-in-one-paint you used in your demonstration. We’ve watched (and memorized) the technique tutorials prior to the first attempt at painting, including yours. House temp is 68° so not too hot or cold. Our paint does not apply smoothly, totally unlike your example or the examples we’ve watched. We’re finding it extremely frustrating as we follow step by step application (using their expensive brushes) only to have the paint puddle and run (when using a good amount of paint) and the paint starts to dry so quickly that the brush develops small bits of dried paint that gets transferred to the next section to be painted. The paint dries too quickly to use the dry foam brush to smooth the bubbles and the brush streaks never smooth out. We even resorted to taking off all the cabinet doors and have no better luck painting flat as the paint looks just terrible. As of now we’re rolling three coats of white on the insides and sanding them down to get rid of the bubble bumps. We’re looking at trying to find someone to spray the outside of the cabinet doors since they look so awful. Could the paint be off/bad? I do believe that may be but have yet to resolve the issue 😢
Whizz cabinet and door foam roller is from Lowe’s works well. Also, I learned that the bubbles are from putting too much paint on the surface. Just put enough for a thin coat with a clean brush and lightly roll out the brush marks with the Whizz brand roller.
Dis you use their deglosser/degreaser?
Pros the world over use *oil* based KILZ for their projects. I cannot tell you how many times I give customers two different bids - because they believe that their old cabinets have to be sanded first, then primed, then painted. So much labor involved with sanding. With the red can oil based KILZ you can go straight onto non-sanded cabinets. The adhesion for that stuff is phenomenal. Spray on the KILZ then spray on the paint then you're done. Of course there are a few steps in between ;)
Is that the same for the product Stix? The person and Benjamin Moore said when doing cabinets I didn’t have to sand just use that primer.
@@cberg9480 I am not able to say, unfortunately. I use KILZ because I know it works. I can caution you, however. The employees behind paint desks do not always have the experience, so ... you know.
Because trying to find oil based KILZ right now is like trying to hit the lottery, why not buy Stix and give it a test pass? If it doesn't work you know KILZ will.
Did you mention what grit you sanded?
I'm sorry I didn't! I sanded with 120 grit
@@WelcometotheWoodsBlog thank you
What is the price point for that all-in-one paint. The kills 2 and the promar 200 are low-level products.
It's $38 for a quart. Quite pricey!
@@WelcometotheWoodsBlog honestly that's not too bad, Benjamin Moore's and Sherwin William's high end product are quite pricey also. Happy painting.
It seems like paint-and-primer combos are the norm now. Good tips, good video. The production quality is higher than the average YT video but the colors seem washed out and the sound signature is cold/harshing my mellow.
They ones with primer is really flat.
I hate painting sooo much. I lose sleep when I have a paint project coming up.
I am not going to even watch this video since you are holding a promar 200 can. 😆😆😆😆 Here is some advice.
GET A COPY OF THE DATA PAGES AND READ THE DIRECTIONS!
#1) "Paint and primer in one" means there is more titatium dioxide /solids suspended in the resin emulsion we call paint.
#2) Primer is not paint. There are different primers (and paints) for different jobs. As an example your surgeon could use a scapel or a box cutter. Both can cut but what works best for the task at hand? Or perhaps a framer could use a framing hammer or a ball-ping finishing hammer. Both are hammers, right? 🤷♀️
#3) ALL PAINTS AND ALL PRIMERS have DRY times and CURE times. Dry and cure times vary based on the applied mil thickness, type of product (oil/solvent/water) humidity, and amounts of pigments suspended in the product. As an example a white oil based enamel takes longer to dry and cure than a white waterbased enamel. While also a dark black or blue or red... heavy pigment load water based paint will take longer to dry and cure than a white waterbased paint.
Scratch tests and scrub test will not work without proper product, application, and cure time. Fyi dry times may be 2 or 4 hours but cure times can be upwards of 2 weeks to a month.
#4) You find MANY indepentant 3rd party tests done on many diffetent brands. Look for things like ACA, ASTM, KCMA certifications.
#5) not all testing reads the same. Maybe the "scrub test" for Ben Moore results say "200 scrubs" and results for Sherwin Williams say "100 scrubs".... How were they counting a "scrub"? After following the manufacturer's suggested application and curing process The machine the passes the "scrub" brushes over the surface is suspended and passes back and forth like a swing. 1 company may count 1 stroke as 1 scrub while the other company may count 2 strokes as 1 scrub. So they are the same.... 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Anyway, I've had my head stuck in paint and construction... my whole life.
The chemical coatings industry is insane once you delve into it for real.
Goodluck!
Are you an ex model?
You used a wall paint and latex primer.. you need to use shellac or a bonding primer and actual cabinet paint or at least trim and door paint 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
