What Customers Are Saying
The Ovation Plus Flat Interior Paint generally provides good coverage, requiring only 1-2 coats for most users. The flat finish helps hide imperfections well. However, some customers found the coverage lacking, needing 3-4 coats, especially over darker colors. The paint applies smoothly and evenly with minimal dripping or spattering. Many appreciate the low odor and zero VOC formulation. Color matching can be inconsistent, with the final color sometimes differing from expectations. Overall, the paint offers good value and performance for most users, though a few experienced issues with coverage and consistency.

Would Not RecommendWe purchased this paint based on the many positive reviews however we are struggling to like this one. We have used the sherwin cashmere before and loved the results. This one however did not compare. After three coats, it still needed further coverage. The walls were prepped and primed perfectly but for some reason this paint was translucent.

Save money and get showcase paint instead
Would Not Recommend4 coats required to equal 2 coats of the showcase coverage. Pigments separate overnight and are all sitting on top and bottom. Had to shake every time to keep consistent color through the same day.

Good color, performed about as expected.
Would RecommendI bought this to get some walls painted quickly. The better coverage paints and those mixed with primer were unavailable. This product was also less than 50% the cost of the paint with mixed in primer. Thus, it was worth a try to get the color I wanted. It took 3 coats to cover the beige and blue on the existing walls. I was expecting to put on 2 coats. I may even put on another coat to be sure it is well covered. The paint flows on well, dries as specified, and has the flat finish specif...
Still has a smell, not as bad as regular paint.
Would RecommendGot this since the wife is pregnant. The smell is still there enough that she had to move to a different level of the house while I painted. Probably not as bad as a regular VOC paint. This being flat white and not a "one-coat" paint took MANY coats to cover my tan walls.
