Ratings & Reviews for Valspar Reserve Flat Base Tintable Interior Paint Paint + Primer ( 1-quart )

Not Semigloss, Poor Cvrg

Signature. Good color. Poor coverage, no sheen. We specifically wanted semigloss. What we ended up with is not smooth, no sheen. When my husband bumped the flat paint ceiling there should be a noticeable shiny spot, comparatively. None. If this means we have to do multiple coats, then they lied to us. We are applying over quality primer. Will come back and update when the project is completed.

Awesome Paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this paint and absolutely love the coverage and richness of color. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could. Got so many compliments on the color.

Good coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used this for our ceiling and walls as the base white color. We liked it so much, that we decided to buy it for the actual wall color too!

The perfect paint!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Valspar Reserve did an amazing job of not only covering marks with one coat, but it also went a long way! We saved money using Valspar paint rather than a different brand.

Love this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Use it on custom built home customer loved it’s fine finish

Marks with any touch!

Love how it looks but can't touch it! Streaks with any touch and no amount of washing will make it go away. Very frustrating!

Great coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Reserve interior paint and primer for my kitchen which has textured walls. Not quite one coat coverage but that’s not the paint, it’s my technique. Lovely even color.

It sucks. Don’t use it.

i’ve painted a lot. this paint took three coats. it sucks.

Beautiful Ballroom Dance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this paint, we are no experts but this was super easy to use and looks great! Can’t wait to try other colors!

Exceeded Expectations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decided to do some updated interior painting. Purchased Valspar & competitor orange store. I found this was easy to work with, quick dry, easy to work with. Loved it!!

This is our go-to paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We always purchase the Reserve Valspar paint and are always pleased with the coverage and the toughness of this paint once painted!

Our new "Go To" Paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this paint to have our painters do our great room. We love the color and finish. Professional painters said it was easy to go on, covered well with one coat and very little smell, it also dried quickly.

Great coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The color that I chose matched to the sample card and was very much the same as it went onto the wall, darkening just a bit when it dried.

true color

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In the process of trying this product in my opinion it needs primer under it. I might be using it wrong though. the way I'm using the product it needs 2 coats

DOES NOT cover in one coa

Did not provide one coat coverage as advertised. Used full gallon on a room under 300 square ft & have to go back for more paint. Previous color bleeding through everywhere!

NOT AS ADVERTISED

I will never buy this paint again. I expected it to be one coat as advertised. I followed all the directions exactly as stated and after 2-3 coats, it looks just okay. I've used comparable brands that covered in one coat and look amazing dry. The consistency was wildly different from gallon to gallon as well (even in the same color and base).

Did not cover light on light in 1 coat. Custom not happy with high price and low performance

Disappointed

I've painted for many years now. I chose valspar because I got a sample then painted one wall. It looked really nice. Went on smooth, like the thickness of it, covered really well and the price was reasonable. I need around 6 to 10 cans. When I did my other walls, you can see where I rolled, spots all over. I have never had this issue. I'm still painting, so I have to keep using it or it will probably be noticeable if I change brands. The color probably won't match. Very disappointed. I would p...

Rolls on thick but...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Does not provide one coat coverage. Plenty of experience painting. Did proper prep and used a primer, but still have some speckling show through

Great coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just painted our kitchen. Always use Reserve because of the low emissions. With health issues in our home I have to be very careful what products I use.
