What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the smooth application, vibrant color options, and professional-looking finish. Many highlight how easily it applies, dries quickly, and delivers rich, uniform color depth. However, many reviewers note the paint requires two or three coats despite marketing claims of one-coat coverage, even on primed surfaces. Despite this gap between expectations and performance, most customers still consider it a top-tier product worth the investment due to its durability and ease of use. A few express frustration over the cost relative to coverage needs.

Doesn't smell gross

Would Recommend

This stuff goes on thick, so fewer coats. The smell goes away as soon as it's dry, so you aren't smelling fumes for days. It dries really fast too. We did the second coat as soon as we finished the first. Ryan in the PO paint department was super helpful too.

Poor pigment. Takes 3 coats Don't waste your money

Would Not Recommend

Terrible paint. It requires 3 coats to cover a primed wall. I'll never purchase another Sherwin Williams product. Look it up on Youtube. Behr paint is much better.
