What Customers Are Saying

The paint offers good coverage and color, but may require multiple coats, especially when painting over darker shades. Some customers found the texture to be thicker and rougher than expected. The paint seems suitable for touch-ups and smaller projects, but may not provide single-coat coverage for large-scale painting jobs.

Efficient and durable

Would Recommend

I used this for the bathroom and it’s held up quite nice to the point it’s the second time I’ve bought it.

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

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice, ultra rich and remarkable finish. This paint has it all. Paint + primer formula works great. Great texture and stain resistant finish makes it awesome.

Image inaccurate & Terrible coverage

Would Not Recommend

Patriots Silver is darker than photos. One coat is not enough. Barely covers 75 sq ft with one coat.

Worth upgrading to the reserve

This paint went on very well and did not require primer, even when going over colored paint.

One coat coverage

Would Recommend

This paint went on smooth and I'm just one coat. It was well worth the price.

Good bright white paint

Covered well and looks great. Recommend

Good paint! Covered a darker color pretty well. It did take a bit more than the 400 sqft coverage on label.

Smooth, finish, but did need more than one coat

Would Recommend

This paint has a one coat guarantee, but in my experience I did need more than one coat to get full coverage—even though I wasn’t painting over a dark color. I didn’t bother with the guarantee because it wasn’t a big deal for me. That said, I really like that it has primer built in, which makes the process easier. It goes on smoothly, is easy to work with, and once it dries it looks completely flawless with a really nice finish. Overall, I would definitely recommend it.

Not one-coat.

Would Not Recommend

For the price paid and for the fact that it says one-coat, I expected it to be just that, one-coat. However, I needed to apply 2 coats, even on walls that were previously light colors. Very disappointed.
