According to my local paint guy, Benjamin Moore has an even better green paint out there -- the Aura line. It doesn't come in every color, but the coverage is supposed to be much better than the Ecospec. My painter wouldn't use the Ecospec, even though we, uh, spec'd it -- he substituted Pittsburg Pure Performance paint instead, and we have loved it.
