Awesome Exterior Paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Valspar - Defense Exterior Paint and Primer is a quality exterior paint. We recently purchased a house and we’re wanting to paint the trim so we chose this paint. The color is a vibrant brownish gray and it just glided on. There’s excellent coverage because it’s also a primer. We live in a harsh Texas heat so choosing Valspar which is a dependable brand I know it’s going to last. As we recently had quite a bit of snow this paint has Water-B...

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got white for this paint. The paint goes on smoothly It does take a few layers to build up the paint. I like that the primer was included with the paint since it saved me work.

Great coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Valspar - Defense Exterior Paint and Primer was such a great, high-quality paint. We used this paint on an outside shed. The shed was a medium blue so I was nervous this white paint wouldn't cover it, but it did! I did use 2 coats just to be sure no blue showed through, but with a lighter undercoat you could easily just use 1 coat. It was a nice, smooth paint that went on easily. Great product that I wouldn't hesitat to use again!

very nice exterior paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] using this exterior paint, I was lucky and the paint match was decent to my already existing house color. great coverage and so far no issues with wear or weather. as a DIY project and first time home owner, all seems to be working well with my touch ups and paint coverage of siding

Goes on Easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exactly the color that matched the swatch. Doesn’t require multiple brushes. Goes on right the first time. Love Valspar.

Great exterior paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I painted my outside wood trim of my house with this and it looks great. I applied 2 coats and it was quick and easy. The paint went on smoothly and covered thoroughly. It does a nice job of beading the water off when it rains. I haven't seen any fading from the areas that get lots of daily sunlight. From what I can see, this paint will keep my outside looking great for many years.

Good Paint!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Valspar Defense Exterior Paint and Primer is an excellent paint to purchase. I painted my old picnic table and I didn't use much paint because It has great coverage. The paint dried quick and it gave a nice beautiful color. I also liked how the can has a five little brackets sealing the can of paint. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the quality and performance of the paint and highly recommend to everyone. It definitely gave my picnic ta...

Love the color

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The color is beautiful and it goes smooth. I love that it’s a primer and paint in one. It made painting my house easier.

Defense Exterior Paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Valspar Defense exterior paint. It glides on smooth, we painted the inside walls of our garage and it looks so much cleaner and nicer. One coat is all you need with this paint. It also has primer, so no need to add primer afterwards! Great product! I will recommend!

Nice exterior paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this as we are going through a re-construction of our back deck and front patio. The house needed a fresh coat of paint as well. Got a pretty basic white color and it went on well over the older white paint. Would choose again for other projects!

my favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my new favorite exterior paint! I've tried multiple types and brands over the year, but this one is going to be my new go to every time. It was time to repaint the porch so I gave it a try and was so impressed. I really did only need one coat and it looks fabulous! You won't be disappointed and it deflates the job easier! Highly recommend for any paint projects.

Great paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in a 40-plus year old home, and needed a little bit of a makeover for curb appeal. This is great exterior paint, specifically for trim. It goes on smooth and provides great coverage. Would recommend.

Protects your projects

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best exterior paint I’ve used. Since moving out on some land last year we’ve built a few structures. Everything from sheds to chicken coops. We’ve exclusively used this paint and primer in one for all of them. It goes on easy and smooth. It doesn’t drip or leave paint streaks. The color is absolutely gorgeous. I’m able to get more than one structure painted with just one gallon. For the most part I only needed to use one coat with an occasi...

Versatile and Hearty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We plan to use the Valspar Defense Exterior Paint (in the color mousse) to paint our garage door and the trim around it. Our garage door is made up of several different materials, including wood and metal, so we wanted to see how this paint would stand up to the elements. We painted several different types of woods and metals with the paint and set the items outside to dry. We then hosed them down with water, left them in the sun, and allowed t...

Great application

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As far as applying the paint, I love it. It went on smoothly and had good coverage. As with any outdoor paint, it's more about longevity. That would require a year of Texas whether to give a review on its durability. So far looks good.

great paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Valspar - Defense Exterior Paint and Primer is my favorite now. I like that combination formula of a paint plus primer. The product has a thicker texture and applies easily covering all imperfections such as scratches and small holes. The color is nice and bright. I like Valspar quality and results. Great paint!

Quality Paint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used this Valspar paint on a back shed and the paint went on really well. It worked really well to cover up old stains and discoloration on the shed. Shortly after painting the shed, it rained and I was able to see firsthand how the water beads rolled off, so I have high hopes that the product will deliver protection against any moisture. Really great product!

One of the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best exterior paints I’ve used. The coverage is great and is durable in the rain and heat. It is also extremely easy to use.

Great quality paint!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently used Valspar Defense to update my back porch. I chose the Hopsock tint for a nice warm look. Painting was easy with both a roller and brush. One coat did the job. Looks great. Highly recommend this quality paint for exterior surfaces.
