Rolls on easy

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m in the process of painting the exterior of my house. I had a few places I needed to replace some trim boards. This Valspar Duramax exterior paint + primer is perfect. Not needing to prime and then paint saves me time and money. Great color choices. Go on smooth, will only need one coat. Excellent quality and value.

Great Coverage!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My review is on the Valspar Duramax Exterior Paint and Primer. This paint looks great on my shed. The paint is thick and didn't run, and went on very easy. It covered all the cracks that were in the wood, and I only had to paint it one coat. That is my kind of paint when you can paint it once and you are done. I would highly recommend this exterior paint and primer.

My Go To Paint

Would Recommend

Best paint around

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the #Valspar® Duramax® Exterior Paint & Primer from # Try-It Sampling to try and it is awesome. This paint already has the primer in it they have many many colours to choose from. One coat is all you need. The paint is nice and thick but not too thick goes on very smoothly without a lot of driping which is awesome when you are not using a drop cloth. It has great even coverage I would definitely recommend this paint.

Great coverage

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this to paint an outdoor playhouse built out of cedar. It had excellent coverage after one coat, but needed a 2nd coat for perfect looking results. The finish turned out excellent and this will help to protect the wood from the elements. Application was easy and clean up was a snap. I really appreciate the paint and primer in one to help save time and effort by eliminating the initial primer application step! Quality product!

Awesome exterior paint!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently wanted to paint the outside trim of our house and found the perfect exterior paint. This paint includes primer and goes on thick for better bonding that results in a clean and highly professional finish. It’s rained a few times since painting, but it has held up to this Florida weather without cracking or peeling!

Thick, doesn't drip

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This paint is thicker than my usual paint, which works great for me because I'm a messy painter. The white off the shelf is a true white, rad to the yellow undertone.
