How to apply
Get a factory finish.
- Clean and sand. Degrease, then sand cabinets to 220 grit or coarser and dull any glossy paint. Remove all dust.
- Prime bare or slick surfaces. Use Fresh Start High-Hiding All Purpose Primer on MDF, thermofoil and laminate, and a metal primer on bare metal.
- Stir well. Thinning isn't normally needed. If you must, add up to 8 fl oz of clean water per gallon.
- Lay it on and leave it. Apply even coats and let it level. Don't go back over areas that have started to set.
- Recoat after 16 hours. Lightly sand cabinets between coats.
- Be patient. Wait 5–7 days before loading shelves. It reaches full hardness in up to 30 days.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
How much Advance do I need?
Each 3.79 L covers 400–500 sq ft per coat, and a 946 mL about 100 sq ft. Most trim, door and cabinet jobs need two coats. Use the paint calculator above for walls, or tell us your project and we'll work it out.
Which finish should I choose?
Semi-Gloss for most trim, doors and cabinets. Pearl for a softer, lower sheen on cabinets and walls. High-Gloss for a mirror-like front door, furniture or statement trim.
How long does Advance take to dry?
It's dry to the touch in 4–6 hours and ready to recoat in 16 hours at 25 °C and 50% humidity. Cool or humid rooms take longer. Wait 5–7 days before putting things back on shelves, and allow up to 30 days for full hardness.
Is Advance good for kitchen cabinets?
Yes. It's made for cabinets: it flows out smooth like an oil and dries to a hard, washable finish. Clean and sand to 220 grit or coarser, prime MDF, thermofoil or laminate with Fresh Start High-Hiding All Purpose Primer, and lightly sand between coats.
Can I spray Advance?
Yes. Use an airless sprayer at 1,500–2,500 psi with a 0.011–0.015 tip, or HVLP at 20 psi with a 1.8 tip. Thinning isn't normally needed. Rinse spray equipment with mineral spirits after the water clean-up to prevent rust.
Does Advance yellow?
It's made for minimal yellowing. Benjamin Moore notes slight yellowing can still happen, faster in dark or poorly ventilated areas and more noticeable in light colours.
Can I put Advance over oil-based paint?
Yes, once the old finish is clean and sanded dull. Benjamin Moore says to sand glossy alkyd surfaces before applying Advance.
Can I use Advance outside?
Only the High-Gloss finish is rated for exterior use, on properly primed metal, masonry and stable trim like cedar and redwood. It isn't recommended outside on pine.
What colours can Advance be tinted to?
Almost any Benjamin Moore colour. Search by name or number in the colour box above Add to cart. It also comes ready-mixed in White (01) and Black (80). Color Stories (CSP) colours aren't available in Advance.
Can I return tinted paint?
Paint tinted to your colour is made to order, so it's final sale. Untinted products follow our return policy.
Do you ship, or can I pick up?
We ship across Canada, free on most orders over $249. Pick-up is free at our Rockwood Village store, 1292 Eglinton Ave. E, Mississauga, and most orders are ready within 4 hours.
