The main guy there is a complete misogynist. When I mentioned having called three Sherwin Williams…read moreand finally being directed to go to that store for the product I need, he chuckled and said "Oh I'm sorry, was it a woman you spoke to?" He then spent the whole time trying to talk down to me and being anything but helpful. He was so focused on intentionally talking to me in a little pet voice and pointing out that I had "misspoken" on a technical issue instead of just making an effort to help me get the product I need. The funny thing is I called him out on the fact that he was giving me false information. For example, he claimed that the "poly" in polyurethane means "clear" (it is actually short for "polymer") and that I had therefore misspoken by asking for a polyurethane enamel in a certain color. I pointed out to him that there are plenty of polyurethane paints on the market that have colors. He was like "yeah I just mean in Sherwin land." This is also false, look on the Sherwin Williams website for Polane T, a black polyurethane paint! This guy is a complete moron. He should be fired. Like all misogynists, they are idiots who don't know what they are talking about. Frustrated, I said I just wanted them to put the color tint of the numbers and letters I gave them in a polyurethane paint on the shelf and without knowing the details of what I was doing, said it would not work for what I was doing and that paint is only used by "little old ladies" in their houses. I told him to just do it anyway. He went and mixed the paint and the other guy rung me out, not quite such an in-your-face misogynist but totally unfriendly and clearly not on board with the fact that I would dare to call out his coworker. And lo and behold, the paint I bought actually ended up working perfectly.

It is a paint store. Clean up your storefront if you want to charge those prices, it's pathetic.

Today Sid went through the color book, shading, encouraged us to take paint chips into the sun and helped us select colors we were looking for to paint our house. We've chosen wrong so many times in the past, I'm sure everyone could use a Sid in their life to help steer them into the straight path of correct color selection!

I bought one of those new townhouses (with the ridiculously narrow staircases) that are popping up…read moreall over Seattle. Every single time I've moved something - pretty much anything that might be 3 feet in width - I've scraped the side of my walls. So after a year of wall scratching (and a new roommate), I decided that maybe - just maybe - it was time to do some patch work. The construction company that built my abode purchased their paints from Rodda. This location was the closest to my house, which is how I ended up here. The staff was really helpful, though finding someone to help me was a little hard (Either their understaffed, or there was a high influx of customers for a Friday afternoon.). The paint color, I was told, was an "older color" (I guess they have been renamed since my house was built.), but the staff was able to find a conversion chart and get me the right paint color. Then they helped me to get the other stuff I needed: spray-on texture (they also did a demo with me, which was very useful), a paint roller, and a basic "how-to" list. The prices were reasonable too. I'm no home improvement expert, but I have been to the Home Depot and Lowe's before: everything one needs to texture the walls and paint (and fix the holes) for under $50 (including the gallon of paint) seems really reasonable to me. Like I said: great service, and knowledgeable staff. I just wish there was more of them to go around... And I really wish that they'd volunteer to come home and do my painting for me.
