Ratings & Reviews for HGTV HOME by Sherwin-Williams Spec Right Eggshell Ultra White Tintable Interior Paint ( 5-gallon )
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the paint's smooth application, low odor, and excellent value, with many reporting one-coat coverage over light surfaces and appreciating the eggshell finish. However, coverage remains inconsistent—while some achieve ideal results, others require multiple coats, particularly over darker or non-primed surfaces, describing it as translucent or inadequate. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider it a strong value option and recommend it, though expectations around hiding power should be managed.

Would RecommendI liked the outcome of painting initially the bedroom. 7 months later I chose the same paint for the livingbroom, dining room, entry and hallway.

2 coat coverage over dark paint
Would RecommendWe used 2x 5 gallon tubs of this paint in our daughter's condo. Needed 2 coats to cover, since we were painting light colors over very dark brown walls and ceiling. Paint turned out great, no hat-banding or other trouble. Condo was 850 sq ft, and the 10 gallons of paint was sufficient to get it all painted for sale.

Try something different
Would Not RecommendIt doesn’t cover well at all! It took 3 coats and still could use another one!

Easily scuffed
Would Not RecommendI put 2 coats of white smart primer on the walls before putting 2 coats of this Spec Right Eggshell Ultra White paint on the walls. It was very thin, but had a nice matte finish. Unfortunately, the slightest bump of the metal paint roller against the wall would leave metal scuff marks. I've never had this happen in 20 years of painting home interiors. Never. Spec Right seemed like a very cheap flat paint rather than a quality eggshell finish paint. I'm afraid I can't recommend it.

Paint is basically translucent and worthless
Would Not RecommendWent to paint doors today with paint and it was translucent and worthless. You would have to paint numerous coats to see anything. Of course it’s been 34 days so the paint is not returnable. So I guess it will go in the trash where it belongs and I am out $35.
