What Customers Are Saying

The Valspar Reserve Interior Paint & Primer offers a wide color selection and is praised for its great coverage, smooth application, and durability. Many customers found it easy to apply with quick drying time and able to cover dark colors well. However, some customers reported issues with the paint requiring two or more coats to achieve full coverage, even over light-colored walls. The paint was also described as being too thick and difficult to apply evenly by a few customers. Overall, the paint is considered a quality product, but the one-coat coverage claims may not always hold true, especially for darker colors or significant color changes.

Really liked the color and quality. However, should've went with the better one for a shower floor. Still great in general!

Valspar interior paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These white mixing paints are so wonderful. When rolled into your wall mixed with the main color it brightens up the mixture. not only does it brighten it up but it rolls out so smooth onto your wall. it does take up to a day or so to dry to be sure of like any wall paints. there is si cracking to this paint it’s very smooth.

Great Color, Great Coverage, Great Paint & Outcome

Would Recommend

This is great quality paint and covered the old light blue very well. The wall & ceiling texture was very heavy, so needed to do some brushwork after rolling. Was easy to brush around white trim. Because of the very heavy texture, the coverage was less effective than normal, but when completed....It Looked Amazing!

Upgraded packaging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m so impressed with the new packaging of this paint, the pour spout is so convenient and mess free! It was a breeze for the small amounts I was using at once.

No mess painting!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was great for both a small and large project we had. My husband loved the fact he could easily pour for the small project into a small paint cup to do the project, no mess, no drip and he just rinsed the removable funnel off when done. He said it was also good for poring into his paint pan- he could put smaller amounts in with sour the worry of drips down the side of the can or in the rim that allow it to not shut properly. He said he’ll s...

Easy and Convenient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always disliked opening paint cans. You have to pry them open and don't even get me started in closing after paint has spilled into the cracks. I have sprayed myself with paint when closing too many times. This is a game changer It's easy to open, the spout is also the key to opening the can. Pouring was tricky at first. I spilled some on the can itself, but once I got use to it, it was smooth sailing. Easy to close, just make sure you...

I really liked this paint + primer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first got this product I was scared that the packaging was always going to be leaking and that it wasn’t secure… but then the first time I opened it and used it. Not only was the product amazing but the packaging is actually really stable. I think the box must of gotten banged up a lot but the paint can has a twist top and latches keeping it down. Once you put the top on right it’s not going anywhere. I used the paint + primer for a coup...

Easy to Pour

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new Valspar Reserve paint can us an excellent way to pour paint! I love the spout which helps keep the paint from spilling everywhere and making a mess. I think this is a great adjustment to traditional paint cans.

Wouldn’t purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I know the review for this specific paint is primarily about the new design / lid, I did want to point out that the main reason I gave this a three out of five is heavily due to the fact that this paint requires at least two layers of coats. In addition to that, the paint was extremely chunky and was very hard to mix the contents that separated. That being said, I think the new design of the lid could have a correlation as to why the pain...

Nice paint + primer

Great brand

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Valspar has been a nice quality paint that has been around for a while now. I heard the reserve is even better. It is an eggshell color. Which is perfect because that is the exact meh color I have on my walls at home. I am assuming this is a flat color so it is very basic. Now when spreading this onto the wall it just goes on smooth as butter just flawlessly and seamlessly. Now to get perfect coating you have to invest in good paint brushes and...

Love the plastic containers!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We always use valspar paint, it seems to consistent and always goes on smoothly! We really like the plastic containers with the pour spout. I think they will last longer as the metal ones rust and become impossible to open and use again. Valspar always seems to cover in one coat and sometimes need a second coat but not always.

LOVE Valspar Paint!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE Valspar paint. It is high quality, the texture and consistency is always great and doesn’t clump, and always provides a beautiful finish. The primer dries quickly and provides a great base, and the paint itself goes on easily, doesn’t require multiple and multiple coats, as well as also dries fairly quickly. I absolutely recommend Valspar; it’s always delivers on its promises! (Don’t forget to save a bit for touch-ups - the cans are gre...
