What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise paint samples for enabling confident color decisions with exceptional accuracy and practicality. Most reviewers highlight that samples "perfectly match" full gallons and existing walls, helping avoid costly mistakes. The size is celebrated as ideal for testing multiple walls or small projects, with many noting "just enough" paint for touch-ups and stenciling. Paint quality receives consistent praise for smooth application, great coverage, and one-coat performance. A few customers mention pricing concerns and note that samples come only in satin finish, but these minor drawbacks are far outweighed by overall satisfaction.

I rely on Lowes
Lowe's is my go-to place for sample paint.Always a knowledgeable paint expert there to match any color for me in no time flat. I usually order several colors at a time. As a decorative painter, I rely on quality, accuracy and speedy service and I get all of that at Lowe's. The always personable & cheerful sales associates is an added bonus. I love Lowe's prices too!

Promo paint
Would Not RecommendReceived these as a “promo”. Didn’t need them or want. Then was charged for them and had a real challenge to get my money back. Lucy from the San Antonio store was a great help . Another manager Penny was very abrupt on the phone and wouldn’t take the time to look into the situation. Glad it got resolved.
3 samples purchased
Would RecommendWe purchased 3 samples of different shade & sheens.
Great to refinish an old dresser
Would RecommendThe color was better than expected. Dried quickly and evenly. It hasn't faded and has gotten better with time.

Sample paint
Lowe’s does a great job at quickly mixing the samples. They were spot on
Valspar interior paint sample
Would RecommendGreat inexpensive way to sample darker paint colors inside your home to see if the color will work for the room you're considering it for. It's a good amount of paint for small projects as well!
Samples are expensive
The paint itself was fine but I feel the samples are priced a little high. I wanted to get three samples but only got two because of the price.
