I'm familiar with Behr and Sherwin-William's different lines of paint.

Not so much with Ferrell Calhoun. I've talked with several people (friends), and one painter, and they all prefer it over SW. SW makes at least 4 different lines of paint, maybe even more, while FC makes 3 lines of paint that I am aware of.

Does anyone know the different lines of paint by FC and which ones they compare to against the SW line of paint?

For instance, usually with SW, I select the Duration or Emerald Steele lines of paint. What is the equivalent in FC?

FC appears to be less expensive too than SW, which happens to be another good selling point in my mind.

Not sure about Ferrel Calhoun but Farrow and Ball is what the ballers on TD use.

I own some rental properties and just about every painter I've used prefers FC. It is more of a contractor grade, but it has held up well in my applications.

Had a former neighbor that was a painter. He swore by FC paint and said he would use whatever I wanted, but FC was his recommendation.

Use them now for my own painting and I find it covers and lays better than SW.

When we built our house, I know they used FC paint and it has held up well the past 8 years. I don't know anything about the different lines of paint.

I see your profile says Lubbock, but if you're in the BR area, call the Denham Springs store and tell them what you need to paint.
Installed new cabinets in our kitchen 2-3 years ago and purchased paint from them. It's holding up great.
