Re: Glidden Paint

I've used Glidden in the past and really didn't like how it covered the walls, or should I say didn't cover the walls well. Chat Icon I only buy Benjamin Moore & Valspar. I don't think HD would take it back since you already used it, but you can ask I guess.

I don't think HD will take back paint that's already been mixed. I've only used Glidden on ceilings and inside closets, we usually use BM.

They dont take back mixed paint.

Try Valspar at Lowes, we always use that and LOVE it. Particularly the Eddie Bauer collection.

Re: Glidden Paint

I hate glidden, I first used it to paint my kitchen and found it to be very watery and took 3 coats to cover walls. It looked terrible and then I ended getting BM allure paint. It took one coat and looked beautiful. I've also tried glidden primer and found the same thing. I find what has worked for me is behr and BM. I believe HD will take back paint IF its unopened
