About 30% more of your money!Benjamin-Moore is a international company that sell through 'dealers' around the world. Kelly-Moore Paints has a network of company owned stores located throughout 9 western states. This results in an increased cost of 30-40% for the BM paints which are sold to dealers, marked up, and resold to the public. In addition, BM spends literally millions of dollars on advertising, which is passed along to you.BM has a great color system but their products are not of the quality and consistency of Kelly-Moore's. In all my years of experience, I have found no other paint product that works as well ,or lasts as long, as Kelly-Moore. BM paints don't cover well and don't last on the exterior of homes.Find your colors whereever you want, but purchase Kelly-Moore paint if you are looking for a product that works great.30 year painting contractor
There are many different shades of Benjamin Moore paints that someone could purchase. The Benjamin Moore company says they have over 3,400 different paint colors to chose from.
You can purchase Kelly-Moore paint at Budget Home Supply in Longmont, Colorado.
