What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the paint's exceptional coverage, color accuracy, and smooth application, with most noting it delivers professional results and hides previous colors effectively. Many achieve full coverage in one coat over light or primed surfaces, while others find darker shades require two applications. Reviewers consistently highlight rich color fidelity, effortless gliding application, and even drying. Some express frustration over one-coat claims not matching reality with darker bases, and a few report strong ammonia odor. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the paint's quality and finish worthwhile.

Excellent product

Would Recommend

I read a few reviews complaining about perfect matches or coverage complaints. One in particular shows a splotchy/ modeled wall using a deep red. For the record, if the paint is an ultra deep base and red especially, it won't cover a contrasting color in one coat period. Ultra deep bases are clear synthetic bases!!! Natural or clay bases cover much better due to their inherent chemical properties. So when l see a homeowner painting a white or light wall with any ultra deep base paint and compla...

Buy Benjamin Moore paints.

Your people didn’t properly mix the color. I had to go to a Benjamin Moore dealer to get it right!

Great coverage, beautiful look

Would Recommend

Really impressed with the coverage and overall look of the flat finish. I generally apply 2 coats to be safe, but could get away with one coat as long as you do a really good job on it. Haven't had to put it through the test for intense scuff resistance or scrubbing yet, but have no issues so far after several months of use.

Maybe Good Over Primer Paint

Would Not Recommend

Didn’t cover well of a very faint light green. Thought we ordered 4 gallons and we received 4 quarts. No solution offered. Returned 3 days after purchase to get spring sale and would not honor. Poor customer service.

Not worth the money.

Would Not Recommend

Paint was $50.00 a gallon. Very thin paint that drips easy off the roller or brush.
