BM moore paint. I am not happy..**UPDATE**
UPDATE: ok, so i am happy again. I will use it again probably, but cheese&rice...60 bucks a can?!?!?!?!?!!?!!?
the walls look great and it covered well with a coat, but i have to go back and do a few spots.. but i am happy overall
Shocking, right? A BM rant 
My walls are in excellent shape and I did the whole paint & primer combo.
I splurged on BM for the dining room, and used Behr in the living room. Living room came out pretty well.
I just started painting and BM paint seems so thick as molasses. Yes, I stirred enough. 
It looks...sub-par as it is drying. My Behr looked great as it dried and once it dried.
Is this common?
FTR: I used BM Boardwalk
It's super darker on my walls, too.

Re: BM moore paint. I am not happy....but will I be once it dries?
I have the same problem with BM paint as far as application. And I also HATE that the colors are always darker than depicted on the chip, but that's why I always buy the sample can to try it out first on the wall. Happened with my son's man cave although it did dry to a slightly lighter shade. However, I learned to love the color. Sorry, you're not happy.

Re: BM moore paint. I am not happy....but will I be once it dries?
that is weird, for me the colors always come out exactly as they look on the chip if i hold the chip against the dried paint on the wall - part of the reason i love using BM paint...
i didn't use the aura line though, i used flat in a teal blue can....can't remember the type off the top of my head...
the paint does go on a little thick but i like that b/c it covers well...
hope you are happier with it once the room is finished

does it look uneven? after a few hours it should look evenly coated and dry. aura dries faster than other paints so as your painting it may look weird bc some parts are drying as you are still applying. a few hours after it should look great

Aura can be tough to apply. Its thick and dries very fast. Once ours dried we were happy with the finish. Hope that's the case with you!

I hated the Aura because it was so thick to apply and it dried too fast.  I'm hooked on the Natura.

Re: BM moore paint. I am not happy..**UPDATE**
I love Aura Paint. That is the only paint I use. The application can be very different if you are used to regular paint. Aura is all I have ever used painting my house so I do not know any different. I dont have any issues with it but I know my parents and BIL hated using it.
