Great quality paint. I have been using Sherwin William paint for over 20 years and this is one of the best paint out there. I still have the original Emerald Softer Tan color in my hallway and the paint has not faded at all. I just went to this location in Fountain Valley to darken my Emerald Urithan Enamel Trim cabinets paint which I bought at another Sherwin William a few days earlier. I was very impressed with the staff working here. They were friendly and greeted me with a smile when I walk in even though they seem busy with 2 other customers. I have been to other professionals paint store including other Sherwin William store but was never greeted when I walk in. The manager Francis D. offer to try to change the color for me the best he can if I pick another color or he can darken what I have without additional cost. He did tell me once I change the original mix color I bought previously then it will be very difficult to mix up other batch. I decided to pick out 4 new paint color so my wife can decide this time once and for all so I do not waste my time going back and forth. Francis was very helpful and mix me 4 samples and I got a little discount for having an account there which is free to get. I asked Francis what his recommendation was for sample board to paint it on and he gave me some empty boxes and said I could use those to paint the samples on which I have never thought off. I was going to use a wooden board at home. I definitely would recommend coming to the Sherwin William Fountain Valley Store for the extra ordinary WOW service provided by Francis D. and his team. I used the Purdy Syntox 2 1/2 inch angular which gives it a smooth finish without having to sand with 400 grit. I did not sand in between coats either. I scruffs it with a wire cleaning brush really good then 2 coats of Premier Wall and Wood primer. I waited 24 hours in between coats. I used the Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel in Satin with Sturdy Brown 6097 paint color with 2 coats as well and waited 24 hours between coats. Maybe one day I will paint the top cabinets but for now it will be 1 of 1 designed in 2 tone. read more

Sherwin-Williams Paint Store - Paint Stores Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

Absolutely unacceptable!!! Today is Saturday and the store opens up at 8:00am (As advertised EVERYWHERE) A girl shows up literally 2 mins before 8am and sees me waiting at the door. She says, "sorry but the store doesn't open for another 15-20 mins." I pointed to the sign on the door and said, "It shows you open at 8am" She said "No, that's the time I clock in, I have to open the registers and that take at least 15-20 mins" Completely unacceptable but I thought ok whatever I'm here I guess I can shop for some extra painting supplies while (she opens up the register). She seemed like she was going to just close the door. So I asked, "Can I come in?" It was raining outside and they have hardly any covering. She said, "No you have to wait 15-20 more mins" Like are you serious!!!?????? I got her name, she said it was Olivia. I don't know if it's her fault if the store doesn't want to pay for those extra 15-20 before the store opens or if she was late. However I will tell you one thing it definitely felt rude regardless. I am outside the store writing this review and guess what I'm not going to shop at this store just because this place obviously does not care for your business. I have a painting company and love Sherwin Willams and came to this store because it's closest to the project we're working at today and guess what I'm no longer shopping at this store even if I my guys are painting the building next door! Rude!!! Would definitely not recommend this store! read more

Sherwin-Williams Paint Store - Not recommended - Paint Stores Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

I needed two specific bright colors for a wall mural this morning so I stopped here. I didn't catch the name of the gal that helped me but she was awesome! They didn't have the base needed to make the colors I wanted in stock so she called a few other stores and directed me to a store 10 min away that had what I needed. She also printed me a coupon and told me to sign up for an account so I could get an additional 10% off every purchase. She was so sweet and super excited for me. Exceptional service! read more

So excited to go to Sherwin-Williams to pick out paint in Fountain Valley and was met with the worst sales young lady. She was afraid to help me and and stood six feet away and would not answer my questions. Why work in retail if you are so afraid to help people. I didnt get any help so I walked out and she sarcastically said, bye have a nice day. Sherwin-Williams lost my business. Don't go there for professional paint help. They lost a sale and a future customer. Zero stars read more

I pulled off the 405 because I had an emergency and needed to use the bathroom. I saw this business and I know that paint stores open early so I parked the car and ran in to use the bathroom. There were no customers in the store and only one employee. I asked the employee if I could use the bathroom and he told me no. I told him it was an emergency. He then told me somebody was in there and I said I'd wait. The truth is that nobody was in there and he repeated that I could not use the bathroom. I was so shocked to be treated like this. I will never again purchase this brand of paints. read more

If you want real customer service, honesty, and integrity, don't shop at this store. I wished there was a rating lower than 1 star. The staff and management of the Sherwin Williams store in Fountain Valley truly deserve a lower rating than 1. I feel very sorry for the owner of this location if he doesn't know what the manager and assistant manager are doing. I recently had the exterior of my house painted. My contractor said he only uses Sherwin Williams paints. He sent one of his painters to this store to pick up nearly 50 gallons of base paint and 10 gallons of trim paint. That is about 2000.00 just in paint plus all the supplies for my paint job. There was some unopened paint worth 45.00. I went there on Saturday 2-27-21 and spoke with the rude cashier lady and then the rude assistant manager-Diego. Although I had my receipt, he refused the return. I told him I just spent nearly 2000.00 on exterior paint and next week my contractor will buy more for my interior paint which would be another 2000.00. I asked him if 45.00 is worth losing the ongoing business of my contractor who uses them only. Diego did not care. He said he will talk to his manager on Monday morning. He refused to call the manager on Saturday. I called this morning and talked to David-manager. He knew nothing about this. He said Diego is off today! Diego lied to me, did not leave a note for his manager about this, and had no intention of talking to him about this small return. After talking to David-manager, it very obvious that the entire staff at this location is totally anti-customer service. Knowing I spent thousands of dollars at his store, I had the receipt for this return, he refused to accept a 45.00 return and also did not care about losing the future business of my contractor. David said his computer will not allow him to process this return! This is more about the principle of this matter than the 45.00. If you want real customer service, honesty, and integrity, don't shop at this store read more
