Ratings & Reviews for Valspar Base C Tintable Paint sample base ( Half-pint )

Great coverage for non-traditional surfaces

I bought this color to compliment several bold color choices I was using in my RV the surfaces I am painting are less than traditional and the paint seems to adhere in a way that it almost was made for one another, like butter and bread. This blue in particular creates hey almost Sublime contrast next to both the lime green and vibrant pink that I was using as well very few spaces needed a second coat it covered even stubborn old tobacco stains left by the previous owner that didn't wash away v...

Pewter green

I got this to paint some crafts wood door hangers, havent finished them. Covers good and looks great

Bad color

Adhesion, drying is very bad. Applied to wood, it was sticky even after 2-3 days and started came out as a strip even with minor scratch.

Good average paint for most people

I have purchased at least 8 of these, probably more and love them. Its a generous amount of paint to test the wall or use on small paint projects. It dries aftrer a few hours and has a nice sheen (i use satin). Have only been in my house one year so cant speak to how it fade resistance and adheres other than so far so good.

Great coverage!

I bought this sample to see how I liked the color on my mantle and electric fireplace. The coverage is great, only one coat is needed. The satin texture was smooth and easy to clean. Drying time was pretty fast.

Great Paint!

I love this paint because it doesn’t splatter when you’re using a roller. Great coverage.

Wedding DIY Savior

I was working on a DIY project for my wedding this week. I needed a color match to use for certain parts of the project. The worker at the paint desk color matched my paint sample perfectly. I have a bottle of the valspar and Sherwin Williams sample bottles. Both have been great to use for painting in my DIY wedding projects compared to regular store paints. The paint stuck to the surfaces I was painting very well. It also did not take very long for the pain to dry. I was able to apply extra coa...

Worked decent

Did what it described. Nothing bad nothing great. Would buy again

Great Paint

Great paint.

Nothing wrong with the paint

The paint itself isn't bad. Im not happy that I couldn't purchase a smaller sample. I bought three and didn't like the colors once they were applied so I spent over $20 and ended up having to go with a different color anyway. And I really am not happy that there is no option other than self checkout

Difficult application makes utility questionable

Adhesion and coverage is poor regardless of what applicator you use (I tried a foam brush, a paint roller, and a regular paintbrush) you still get spotty/streaky coverage that makes it difficult to really see what the color will eventually look like. It is very easy to wipe off with a damp paper towel or Clorox wipe though, if you’re concerned about removal. Honestly, I’d suggest just grabbing the smallest container of the paint you actually want to use and just get that instead. It’s a massive ...

Very happy with this paint

Color turned out great and was not too expensive for what we got.
