What Customers Are Saying

The paint has mixed reviews. On the positive side, it offers good coverage, easy application, and a nice satin finish, often requiring only one or two coats. It is also praised for its stain resistance and low odor. However, some users found the paint too thick, tacky, or quick-drying, making it difficult to apply smoothly. Others reported uneven results, requiring multiple coats that did not blend well. Overall, the paint can provide good results when applied properly, but may be challenging for some users. Customers are advised to test a sample first to ensure it meets their needs.

One coat coverage, even on tough surfaces.

Would Recommend

I needed to repaint a garage stairway that had both cinder block and wall board surfaces. There were cracks and patches that needed to be painted and I wanted a durable paint that went on easily. This Stationmaster paint fit the bill perfectly. The paint was thick at around 50 degree December temps, but it loaded onto my brush and roller really well. The biggest surprise for me was the excellent coverage. I had a dark concrete patch that I covered with white in one coat. Color me impressed! The...

Protects against stains, mold and mildew

Would Recommend

This Stainmaster paint went on very smooth and even not like thick paints I have used before. It appears thinner but covers beautifully and dried very nicely. I used a very low pile roller and it dried in just about an hour. I liked the fact that it included the primer so there were less steps in painting. I used a Satin finish and the color is Mica.

Master your stain

Would Recommend

With a brand name of “Stainmaster,” you expect it to have strong stain-blocking qualities. However, if you’re painting over dark-stained wood, you will still need to use a primer or lay on multiple coats of this product. My application was a room in my basement that’s the last room in the house where I haven’t painted or replaced the dark-stained crown. This room is pretty rough and I intend to patch and paint the walls and ceiling later, so I wasn’t too picky with masking when painting this mou...

Wow - terrific paint!

Would Recommend

This is a high quality, tintable, stain resistant paint. I used the Ultra White Satin Interior on several projects around my house. It was used mainly as a primer and cover-up. The paint was thick before and after stirring - which is a plus, as I have found many paints thin out quite a bit after stirring. This did not. I used it on multiple surfaces. It was used on a textured wall in my laundry room to cover up water stains. I also used it on the interior of my metal front door, and on wooden ba...

Great basic paint with primer

Would Recommend

I needed a quality interior paint with primer to cover an interior storage area. This was my first time using Stainmaster paint. I was very happy with this paint and it performed as expected. I plan to use the remaining paint to cover an interior porch ceiling. Lowes paint center can add the colors I need to. Definitely a quality product.

Nice quality paint with nice thickness

I like that this paint is primer and paint all in one. I like that it also has stain-resistant qualities, but since I just painted I can't comment on that yet. Since I got the Satin finish, I decided to try the paint out on a door (since Stainmaster states it can be used on interior doors), before tackling a full room. I liked the thickness of the paint, and how well it stayed on the brush. Brushes easily. The door did require two coats for the best finish. Clean-up was easy with soap and water....

Quality Paint

Would Recommend

Good quality paint. Not runny like other bargain brands. It does a good job of coverage and seems to cover up stains well. Saves the step of having to primer first.

Good quality product

The STAINMASTER Performance Satin Stain Resistant Interior Paint + Primer can be used as is or tinted. This paint has a medium oder and contains silica, ventilation is recommended. The paint can be applied with a brush, roller or airless sprayer without thinning. I did find the paint to have a in yhe middle consistency (not too thin or too thick). Using a Purdy 2.5" semi-rigide brush worked well, no paint dripped from the brush. This paint takes approximately 1hr to dry depending on the ambient...

Outstanding Performance

Would Recommend

Stainmaster "Performance" interior paint lives up to its label. One coat coverage over 58 sq/ft textured wallpaper. Paint went on smoothly with virtually no running. Ivory wool satin finish color looks exactly as described. Dried to the touch in an hour. I am not a professional painter but pushing 71 I've done a lot of painting in my time and cannot remember a better paint. Very pleased with performance and color. Now on to the kitchen.

Paint that covers in one coat!

Would Recommend

We used this paint in our bathrooms. It is a thick paint that gives good coverage with only one coat. It was a very easy cleanup with water. We noticed that it looks darker after it dries (the color looked light initially but darkened as it dried). This is shown in one of my pictures where the edges were done and look darker.

Awesome paint with great even coverage

Would Recommend

This paint has great coverage with just one coat. We took down a papier-mâché wall covering and fixed all the gouges, then applied the paint. It did a great job at covering everything on the first coat but we put 2 coats just to be sure. This wall did get crayon on it, thanks to my little ones, and when we scrubbed it off the paint held its color and evenness. Overall, I love the paint, it just needs to be tinted!

It lives up to its name of Stainmaster Performance

Satin Tintable Acrylic Interior Paint + Primer The Satin Tintable Acrylic Interior Paint + Primer is the best paint I’ve used. It covers in 1 coat and is true to the color I ordered. It has a very nice look on the wall. I painted my kitchen with it and only prep work I did was wash walls good to get off grease and patched holes in few spots. It doesn’t have hardly any smell. It is a thick paint that stays on tip of brush. It washed out my brush with dawn and water. It is very durable, I had t...

Stain resistant paint and primer in 1.

Would Recommend

Paint and primer all in one. It does cover well with 1 coat. But i used 2 because of wall patches showing through. This is interior only. I like satin finish, it has slight gloss but hides imperfections still.

Smooth and consistent application

Would Recommend

This paint mixes well, and is ready to apply faster than others. The colors are consistent throughout the process. The paint applies very smoothly and seems to take less effort with a brush. The Mica color put the room in modern look.

Great Quality Paint

Would Recommend

The Stainmaster Performance paint & primer is definitely worth purchasing. I am very impressed with this paint for numerous reasons. In the near future I plan on painting a small office and the cinder block walls in my garage. For this review I wanted to show how this product will work on numerous surfaces and the versatility of this paint. Attached are pictures of (dry wall, variety of moldings, cinder block and a cabinet). These pictures are showing how well this paint covers while leavin...

Fabulous luxe paint

Would Recommend

Well folks. You get what you pay for. First time using this paint and I have to say I am hooked. The paint is thick and very hardy. I am always willing to pay a little more for a paint that has substance. This paint cut in well. Even better it rolled without splatter or drips. I could have painted without a dropcloth it was that luxe. I have finished the first coat in clean white which is a crisp white color. I painted a small full bath. Could probably get away with 1 coat b...

Excellent quality, good coverage , easy cleanup.

Would Recommend

Even though the paint says “ Tintable” I couldn’t get my local Lowes to tint it ( since they didn’t sell it to me they wouldn’t tint it) Received 2 gallons. So I decided to paint my stair railings and some interior doors . Only time will tell how it will hold up to the railings
