Shoutout to the cheap paint that ruined my kitchen cabinets

I saved $40 on a gallon of 'builder grade' paint, but it took three extra coats and still looks streaky. Has anyone found a decent paint that actually covers in one coat?

Ugh, my cousin swears by that expensive Behr stuff from Home Depot.

Wait, your cousin thinks Behr is the expensive option? That's wild. It's literally the store brand for Home Depot, it's their budget line. The premium stuff is like Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams, where a single gallon can cost over a hundred bucks. Behr is what you get when you need to paint a whole room for under fifty dollars.

Heard that cheap paint can actually cost more because you use so much more of it. What brand did you end up going with?
