    Was painting 60, 5.5"x12' baseboards. Lined up 40 and sprayed them with Glidden Premier Polar White. The can said will dry in 2-4 hours...Still not dry after 10 hours in the 80 degree Arizona sun. Had to stack then to bring them in for the night...Could not separate the boards at 8 a.m. the next morning without peeling the paint. Just in case the sprayer used too much paint, I sanded and rolled the next 20 with sponge roller. Still not fully cured after two days...Will try to get refund from Home Depot....But who will cover the cost of 60 baseboards...Labor???? Come on Glidden please help me out here.

    I really can judge the coverage yet. I bought the spray cans for metal doors. Several of them and the buttons to spray are horrible. They are so hard to press. You can't hold them down. My husband can but even he said it was abnormally hard.

      So I painted many many rooms. I needed to paint a bedroom. Given that Sherwin-Williams on sale is about $83 a gallon, I decided to try Glidden Endurance. The best one at Walmart, about $45 per gallon. As always including The Sherwin-Williams (you always need two coats no matter what the manufacturer says, don’t be fooled) did two coats. I found that the Glidden went on and covered exactly the same as Sherwin-Williams. It looks great. So all in all, I have no problem recommending the Glidden.

      If I had known it was a PPG product I'd have never bought it. End result was a sticky mess that doesn't dry. Weeks later, the moisture is stuck in the bathroom walls and my hand literally sticks to the paint. It's horrible and will cost a lot of time and money to fix it. Horrible horrible horrible. I've painted thousands of gallons of paint in my lifetime and have never had this issue until Glidden/PPG. Did I mention it's HORRIBLE? These people should be ashamed. But they're PPG, so they don't really care as long as they're selling the garbage.

      Porch and floor antiskid paint says it does not need primer but absolutely does. Had to go over a floor twice due to people asking, "Is that your primer?" Do not get if you want 1 coat. The antiskid is pretty cool.

      This used to be a really good paint now it just sucks. Looks like you dry rolled just about everywhere you go have to go over it two or three times. It's not worth the price you pay even if it is cheaper. It's no better than Walmart paint. Will never buy again.

      This is a great product. But I'm giving it only four stars. The only problem I had with this paint is I never once got high the whole time I was painting my house. This paint is so safe I'd feed it to my baby.

      I bought Glidden Premium interior paint + primer to paint a small bathroom. The coverage is about as sheer as pantyhose. I have three coats and you can still see overlap! I purchased the paint on 1-14-2024 shown on the paint can.

      I decided to try Glidden paint and unfortunately the paint is like water. We are using the Ultra paint and it will take three coats to have a decent finish over a light grey. Sherwin Williams Super Paint is the best, it will cost more but you will use much less. SICO Prestige is also a great paint.

      I bought a gallon of Glidden Dark Gray for porch and floors a few years ago, never opened it until tonight and it's like water. Horrible! I've purchased other brands and never had this issue. Typically, when you buy paint and store it properly it's fine; not this. Truly no color left just like water. Will not buy this brand again.
