Would Not RecommendThis paint is not Satin!!! It came out like chalk paint where it needs another coat of a glaze!!! Horrible. We did not pick this out we wanted valspar. The employee told us to use the magnolia paint instead. Horrible waste of money in a bad economy

Not worth buying
Would Not RecommendGalapagos did not come in satin. The employee guided us to this paint. It is horrible to work with and scratches easily after drying for days. We had to go around with a loaded brush to do touch ups. Will not buy again nor will we recommend to anyone.

Hi Gene, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the paint was difficult to work with, and scratched off easily. This is not normal, an...
Excellent paint, pretty color
Would RecommendI purchased this paint in the semi-gloss and my vanity looks incredible! The paint covered well (I primed and sanded first) and you can hardly see flaws. The color, Silverado Sage, looks a tad more blue in my space but given the right light it’s the most beautiful sage color. Not too light and not too dark. I’d buy this paint again for future furniture projects.
Don’t buy
Would Not RecommendThis has been so disappointing. The color looks different than the sample, I’ve needed at least three coats on top of the primer.

Hi Kimberly, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the color did not turn out as expected, and that you needed three coats to cover. ...
Sticky paint.
Would Not RecommendI used Zinsser primer and sanded a small bookcase before painting with this product. It peels off easily and just doesn't dry down. The surface still feels sticky. I purchased another quart of paint from Valspar that I had tinted with the same color from Magnolia and its a huge difference in paint quality. Lovely colo but not worth it, the bad paint quality forced me to but it a lot more effort into the paint project than expected.
