What Customers Are Saying

The Valspar Reserve Interior Latex paint received mixed reviews. Many customers found it to be a high-quality paint that provided excellent coverage, often in just one coat, with a smooth application and vibrant colors. However, a significant number of customers were disappointed that it required two or more coats to fully cover, especially when painting over darker colors. Some also reported a strong odor and a rough, uneven finish. The paint's performance seems to vary, with factors like the color, surface, and application technique impacting the coverage and finish.

Costs more, but well worth it.

Great coverage and clean up. Easy to work with- less splatter. Great colors. Washable finish- can’t wait to see how it holds up over time.

Terrible paint. Don't waste your money.

Terrible paint. It requires 3 coats to cover a primed wall. I'll never purchase another Sherwin Williams product. Look it up on Youtube. Behr paint is much better.

Great Coverage with one coat!

Would Recommend

Covered a lot of area with one coat! Great amount of shine without being too much and easier to clean than a more matte finish.

Not a 1 coat paint

Would Not Recommend

Certainly not a one coat paint. Even painting over a relatively light previous color, two coats were required even on the hand painted trim

I painted my walls

Would Recommend

It’s paint. It covered my walls. Some areas need more than 1 coat.

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.
