Sherwin Williams sample paint
(1/1)
shmokes:
I recently discovered quarts of sample paint from Sherwin Williams. The purpose is to put it up on a wall to see if it's the right color, but why couldn't I just use it to paint? It cost $5 for the same as much paint as a $15 regular quart. And I can't tell any difference. Is there a difference? Why is it so inexpensive?
Kevin Mullins:
I would hope that the samples are of the same quality as the paint would be, otherwise it wouldn't make for a good "sample". IMO
Sherwins site didn't offer much more info, but I did find this tidbit on another site that offered them.

So I would assume if you are happy with that particular sheen it would.
shmokes:
Yeah . . . what I got was satin, and I'm under the impression that's all it comes in, but that's what I wanted. And getting a quart of the exact same color in satin if I don't ask for a sample costs $15. Amazing find, really.
