Thin paint
I've painting for years. My paint store is closed on Sundays so I went to Lowes and bought Sherman Williams.
I've never experienced anything like this. The paint is so, so thin and shows every stroke. If I continued, I would surely need at least 2 coats, maybe 3 to even it out. So disappointed in a product that's been around for decades.
Stopping and buying quality Benjamin Moore tomorrow.
Benjamin Moore = One and done! Lesson learned.

Verified ReviewerShocked at Huge Price Increase
I stopped buying Sherwin Williams paint after my last visit to a local Sherwin Williams paint store to pick up a quart-sized can of touch-up paint. I nearly fell over when they charged almost $40 for this paint.
One gallon is almost $100. They made a massive increase in prices to satisfy their stockholders at the expense of the middle-class homeowner. The bottom line is this: you will not be able to tell if Sherwin Williams paint is on your wall when a skilled painter does the job.
There are many reputable paint companies that make durable paint for half the cost. Do yourself a financial favor and look elsewhere for paint.
- Good paint
- Huge price tag
Preferred solution: Price reduction
User's recommendation: Look for cheaper, but good brand of paint.

Verified ReviewerRude employees
This is the second time I've been there. The locations were different, with one being managed by a man and the other by a woman.
Both were extremely, passively rude, they exhibited short patience, and were condescending. They continually interrupted me as I was trying to speak. It was an unprofessional environment and not welcoming at all. If this wasn't the paint used in my home when it was built, I would never go back there.
I would even encourage other people, especially people like me, to avoid that place. If this continues to be a consistent experience, I may take further action.
Preferred solution: Better, respectful service.

Verified ReviewerBad paint. Bad service and refusing a refund
I was not treated well as soon as I walked into the store. Then when I paid for the paint - over $100 for one gallon!
I paid and walked out. Got home - started using their paint. And it was lumpy! It dried so fast that it left bumps!
I took pictures and sent them right away and called. I'm still trying to get my refund four days later! They are very unprofessional and lack the kindness they should extend to a first-time customer. Now they say I have to be on the road for over two hours to get my refund?!?
I told them to send me a check or put it back on my credit card. I've heard nothing!
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Not worth the money

Verified Reviewer |Safety Concern
I want inform you of a safety hazard at your Falmouth Highway, Mashpee MA store. Drivers are cutting across your property as a shortcut to and from a street named Ninegret Ave.
While walking one day I was almost hit by a driver using the shortcut. This area needs a fence or bollards to prevent this.
Left unrepaired, a serious accident is inevitable. Thanks
Will state my reason when the call is answered
I have been a loyal Sherwin-Williams customer for more than 30 years. Every home that I have purchased or renovated has been done with Sherwin-Williams paint.
Unfortunately, I am very dissatisfied at your current inflated prices.
I need a small amount of touchup paint, and I am asked to pay approximately $30 for a quart. This is nothing but greed and a total disrespect for customer loyalty.
User's recommendation: Sherwin-Williams has gotten greedy.
Bad Service
We are required to supply a book to the clients for each one of our warehouse building projects. The city actually wants to inspect the book to get the final inspection.
Today, I drove to three different Sherwin-Williams stores to request draw downs. The first store informed me that they no longer produce draw downs. They directed me to the store, which is located down the street approximately 5-miles. When I arrived at this second store they informed me that corporate has moved all draw downs to the Santa Ana store, so I drove to this store, located at 1958 E.
Edinger Ave., Santa Ana. When I arrived at this store, I was told that unless the paint was purchased from this store, we will not create draw downs.
We must purchase 1,000-gallons a year of paint through our subcontractors.
the interesting this is that I went to the Vista Paint store to request two copies of draw downs for their paint and they said no problem.
My suggest is that anyone thta wants quality service, DO NOT GO TO SHERWIN-WILLIAMS.
Sarcastic store manager
Asked if they would tint to a very light blue the problock oil base primer and the answer was. Maybe asked if it dries flat answer.
Maybe we'll then was told to take my business elsewhere.
Sherwin Williams will hire anyone because they treat their employees with no respect. I know this for fact as my oldest son was a store manager in abilene Texas as well as Waco Texas prior.

Complaint
On Tuesday, 12/5 at 2:00 pm, one of your delivery trucks from Matthews, NC, License plate JX 2178 driving on Bruton Smith Blvd in concord, NC was blaring filthy rap music from his vehicle. The f words and other foul language was coming from the rap song for all to hear.
I had my grandchildren in the car with me and quickly closed my car windows.
I believe this is unacceptable and also providing a negative opinion of your company.
I would think a better company policy be in place to avoid this.
No response to previous csll
I have not heard a thing from anyone. So disappointed I spent almost $5000 on paint at SW and this is my thank you , No Reply
User's recommendation: Consider a different brand

You need to file a police report. Let the police look at store camera footage and your daughter’s phone.
YES!!! That is solid advice!
