Great paint. Cover the surface area in two coats. Easy way to handle, does not has the harder fumes smell in the room. Drys quick.

    Cheap - you get what you pay for. Peeled off with the tape. Surface was cleaned and dry before painting. Will never buy again.

        Great Paint for the Price
        Was purchased for a customer to paint their bedroom. Although the product claims to cover in one coat, this is a not so with many paints including this one. I have used several other more expensive paints that claim to do the same. They failed in the one coat category as well. If your looking for a quality paint that wont break your budget, this is a solid choice. The coverage is about 400sqft per gallon.

          True to its label, 1 coat is all it took to cover up dark grey walls when painting with pink paint. Made the job so much easier then using a lot of other types of paint.

            Glidden Paint
            This paint goes on smooth and thick. Able to cover in one coat. Home Depot can match exact colors for good touch ups or new paint.

            Like a handful of dried leaves in the can
            I can forgive the thinness of the paint (even though it shouldn't be) and the fact that it took 3 coats (despite the one coat guarantee), but there were more paint chunks in the can than I've ever experienced. Horrible!

              Brightening a room with a soft clean looking shade
              Glides on easily without the need to prime the walls first. The shade we chose is softer than a bright white and adds a coolness to the room without being harsh

              Flat Timeless Paint
              Purchased 3 gallons of flat paint for my basement walls. Began painting and noticed chunks in the paint. We were using it the same day it was purchase- thought maybe something was off with the first gallon but continued to happen in all 3. Spent triple the time picking chunks off the wall very dissatisfied with purchase.

                Best paint I've ever used
                One coat and that's it, couldn't believe it was so affordable and whole lot better paint than the other brand names.

                  Applies smoothly and was just what I expected . Nice sheen for my walls and cabinets . I used semi gloss on my walls for easy cleaning and so they would have a little shine to them . Looks great to me not that flat dull look that I was tired of .

                  Great coverage. I’ve always loved Pittsburgh Paints (PPG) paint products and this did not disappoint. Amazing coverage. I was painting a light gray-blue over a medium tan and a darker clay colored walls. 2 coats covered quickly and easily. It’s a thicker paint without feeling like it’s too thick, heavy, or pasty. Hung onto the roller and brushy nicely without drips or mess. I also chose a dark blue (SW Denim) and painted a focal wall and barely needed a second coat. So impressed! Nearly no smell at all once dry—you’d hardly even know I painted last week!

                  Hands down the best interior paint I've ever used .dark colors cover light in one coat and white colors cover dark in one coat. This product is also very user friendly. Most of the other one coat paints Tend 2 gum up, pull and sag to the point where you have to babysit each wall until it dries. I've used timeless 5 or 6 times including their pure White to roll ceilings with a 9 inch roller and they covered and one coat over old horsehair plaster and did not spray my head wants with roller spray. I've been in the professional painting business 4/32 years and have used every product from every manufacturer you cannot beat this paint.

                  Glidden premium exterior paint with primer
                  I wanted to use Glidden because I liked their color light sage. I put a sample on my siding in winter, just to see how it would look, and it held up nicely through winter with just one coat. Paint goes on very smooth over aluminum and the fumes were quite low and non-bothersome, despite not being labled low/0 voc. Good coverage with primer mixed in.

                    Very upset regarding this paint
                    We have used Glidden Diamond GLD7411 in the past. Home Depot told us they no longer make this & said it was replaced with PPG Diamond PPG53-510 & that it was better than GLD7411 so we purchased several cans. We always use painters tape when we paint & remove it immediately after we paint. We painted our living room that has new dry wall that was primed & completely dry before painting. When we removed the painters tape, oh my gosh, we noticed the paint bubbled & peeled in several places. I am so upset! This NEVER happened to us before with the GLD7411. We will never purchase this paint again. Unfortunately, I can’t return the paint that was tinted but am returning the extra brand new, unopened, white can of paint. Ticks me off all the money wasted on this paint but worse is having to now trying to repair it to the point where it’s not noticeable. We tried repainting over one section but it didn’t work, so, we’ll probably have to sand it down, put plaster, sand that down, prime & repaint. More work than should be. Extremely disappointing.

                      High Qualty Steered by Preparation
                      Some paints simply are too thin or spreads watery. I have never used the PPG Diamond before this recent project. I can only imagine people giving a mediocre or poor rating due to their misconception that they don't require any preparation. For my wall, ALL paint brands would require full preparation: fill all tack holes, spackle all joints and sheetrock nails, sand, old paint needing a TSP equivalent scrubbing, high quality primer, and PPG Diamond, and second coat. I used Satin on walls and eggshell on ceiling (for good reason). Outstanding outcome!

                        walls all have to be repainted
                        6 month old paint job. painted tan over white primer and it was a 2+ coat job. went in to touch up the ceiling (same paint, different color but still finding missed spots) and the walls are a mess. the paint rubs and scratches anywhere it gets touched by something. this is beyond touch up. this is going to have to be completely redone.
