What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the smooth application, vibrant color accuracy, and strong value. Most highlight excellent coverage without priming, quick drying, and minimal odor as standout benefits. Many achieve full coverage in one coat with minimal spatter and easy cleanup. However, several note that two coats deliver optimal results, particularly on darker surfaces or to hide imperfections. The low-VOC formula appeals to health-conscious users. A small group reports coverage inconsistencies or roller marks, though these are often attributed to surface prep. Overall, reviewers consider it an affordable, durable choice that outperforms pricier alternatives.

Not good for ceilings

Would Not Recommend

The flat finish Ovation Plus goes on terribly. When it dries you can see every roller mark. This is called “flashing”, when you overlap your still-wet previous roll. I did two ceilings with one color, and even in our small bathroom it was noticeable. Then I did our kitchen and living room with a different color and it was just as bad. Ended up repainting the entire area with a higher quality paint (same conditions/technique) and it is absolutely perfect. This paint is no good. Two stars because ...

Sherwin Williams Ovation Plus Flat Paint

Would Recommend

I purchased this Sherwin Williams paint as a touch up for my walls, and it did a pretty good job of coverage with only one coat. I ordered the same color as the previous paint, however it was a shade darker, requiring the painting of an entire wall that looked like it had wet paint spots all over. I went to an actual Sherwin Williams paint store and ordered the same color thinking it might be a closer match, however same results at double the price I paid at Lowe’s. Overall I’m satisfied with th...

Highland Ca store manager is trash

I like the product but the color was formulated incorrectly when I went back for a second can to complete a second coat, and I had to do the whole job over. Lowe’s manager was unwilling to take responsibility for the incorrect color formulation and made me repurchase more paint.

Paint Matching issue

Would Not Recommend

Goal was to buy paint that matched my current hallway (color sample was a piece of existing drywall removed during demo). The result was a color that was not the dark brown color I wanted matched - had a greenish tint.
