painting interior walls

We are not crazy about the inside decor of our 5. Anyone have any info on what issues painting the walls creates?

    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.

    Don't cheap out on the primer or the actual paint. Stick to a good brand like Behr and you will be fine!

  • Use a good quality primer and paint. You should have no problems. We painted ours about four years ago -still looks good.
