Ratings & Reviews for Valspar Reserve Semi-gloss Base Tintable Interior Paint Paint + Primer ( 1-gallon )
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The Valspar Reserve Interior Paint & Primer offers good coverage and smooth application, though some customers found it required multiple coats, especially when covering dark colors. The paint is durable and dries quickly, but a few users reported issues with uneven application and lack of hardening. Overall, the paint performs well for lighter colors and simple projects, but may not fully live up to the one-coat coverage claim.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the updated packaging for this Valspar paint. The container is plastic not metal. I can’t say how many times I’ve opened old paint for touch up and little rust flakes break off into the paint. That won’t happen with plastic! I don’t need a hammer to close the container since it’s plastic. It clicks closed. I appreciate the pour spout which lessens the likelihood of spills and messes. The detachable spout also has grooves to open and clos...

5/5
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Valspar Reserve Interior Paint delivers excellent one coat coverage with a smooth, eggshell finish. The color looks rich and consistent, with great hide and durability. Low odor and easy application make it ideal for interior spaces, while the finish resists scuffs and stays fresh over time.

Great quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just have to say how impressed I am with Valspar Reserve’s new packaging! The plastic container feels sturdy and easy to handle, and the pour spout makes pouring so much cleaner—no more drips or mess. I also love that the instructions are conveniently placed right on the top of the lid; it made opening the can a breeze. Painting my door was so much smoother thanks to these little design touches, and I genuinely appreciate the thoughtfulness t...

NOT 1 coat
1 coat guaranteed where?????? I am on 2nd coat but chose the more expensive can due to one coat guaranteed. Now I’m headed back to buy more as it will take minimum 2 coats.

Valspar Reserve Interior
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this paint as soon as it came on the market and have continued to buy and use in my house of over 100 years of age. It covers and makes the house look like a show place that it is.

Not worth the price, time
Would Not RecommendI don’t know how they can state 1 cost coverage. I followed all their directions. Walks weren’t even close to the measured amount. Much smaller. Temps good. Walls clean and dry. Used appropriate equipment. Still require 2 and in some areas 3 coats. Had I known I’d have used a cheaper paint. Might as well for the same expense, cost and time of applying this brand. Could have spent less on 3 coats if a different brand. Unbelievable !!! Not at all satisfied or happy !!

Not one coat coverage
Would Not RecommendI was told this could cover light beige in one coat no problem. I didn’t mind the cost for that reason. Now I have to pay for a second coat! I’m a teacher and am frustrated at the cost for the quality. I would have been better off with a cheaper paint.

Not a fan.
Would Not RecommendI don’t know how they are allowed to put “one coat coverage. Guaranteed” on the can. Both the rooms I just painted, with two separate colors had to have two coats of paint. I used two buffet brushes and different roller types, didn’t matter. Better off buying the cheap paint in my opinion.

Great one coat coverage
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried this during a BOGO event for a job we were doing. Fantastic! We normally use Duration, but this blew that away.

Not “One Coat”
This was most definitely not a “one coat” paint. A second coat of paint was required. Once the second coat was done, the finish was beautiful.

Great Product
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Painted the living room and front closet a number of years ago and found some marks on the wall (crayon, scuffing, gunk). A little scrubbing took everything off and the walls look much better. .

Very Thin and Soft
Would Not RecommendUsed on my kitchen cabinets, big mistake. Paint was very thin, seemed to never harden. Ended up REPAINTING everything with Sherwin Williams CABINET & FURNITURE paint which worked great.
