Had better... part II
Would RecommendFurther to my review 12/21, and no way to append, felt compelled to add context and admit emotion may have interfered with critical thinking. The product that was discontinued (but served me well) had stock # 535098 White. Valspar support advised this was replaced with Reserve Flat Sheen #2916574 Ultra White base (being reviewed). Perhaps the primer I used may not have had the requisite resins to properly seal the sheetrock, that would explain the consumption. After a second coat, I got the expe...
Had better...
Would Not RecommendUsed to be their Reserve was worth the money, but that was then. Didn't even get 300 sq ft from a gallon of the stuff (on properly-primed sheetrock) now and have to buy a 5-gallon pail to do my 235 sq ft living room. That ain't right... Should have been a single-star, but the dried finish of what was painted was (just) acceptable.
Paint counter well run.
Would RecommendPerson at counter was knowledgeable and helpful.

Poor results and awful ammonia smell
Would Not RecommendI bought several cans of this paint for various rooms, but after trying to paint one wall, I'm very disappointed with the results. The "One-Coat Coverage. Guaranteed" claim appears misleading, as the paint failed to deliver this result, even when applied to a clean and properly prepared wall with a good-quality paint roller. I paid extra money to avoid having to do extra coats. Another issue is the strong ammonia smell. After a few minutes of trying to paint one wall, I had to stop and go outsi...

Lowes will rip you off
Would Not RecommendBought this with a rebate offer (Buy one get one) and they did not honor the deal when I submitted the receipt. Will NEVER buy paint at Lowes again!
