Behr..combination primer and finish paint in one....lol:D

I paint for a living and wouldn't use the brand unless my customer is adamant that it be used. There are much better paints available than Behr. I recently used Glidden M150 primer and paint and thought it was good as an economy paint.
For an RV, over the existing coverings or wallpaper, I would use an oil based primer and a paint that has some ceramic in it, for durability.

I realize this is an older post, but I am planning on painting Mobi this summer. I will take your suggestion about oil based primer and paint with ceramic in it (never heard of that but I am sure I can find it locally).

What do you suggest for painting over the oak (yes real wood) cabinets? I want to lighten up the whole interior.

Painting clear finished wood is a tragedy but I know some folks prefer it. For Oak, you will probably want to use a sanding sealer or pore filler to fill the open grain. Sand the filler and paint as suggested.
