    If you use emulsion paint for any projects - don't use Valspar. Awful stuff.

    No, all valspar paint is mixed while you wait- the Valspar section is sectioned off, so you just find an assistant to help you.

    No idea of the quality- I haven't used them yet (that review was over a year old!) However I am just using them for craft projects , so I am sure they will be fine

    We used it in our hallway and found it to be excellent. Coverage was brilliant. When we were deciding the colour some of the other Dulux testers needed two coats all the Valspar ones only needed one.


    ETA the Valspar testers are the premium version of the paint be aware if you are buying a larger amount.
