I was having a problem with finishing exterior doors at my office. I stripped, sanded down to bare…read morewood, re-stained, and applied the final spar urethane topcoats. It kept appearing hazy and would not clear up, no matter if I brushed it on, diluted with mineral spirits, or wiped on with a rag. I have gone into every paint store I could find in the St. Pete area big and small with this problem. Even called MinWax twice. I searched online for hours for suggested solutions. Finally, I walked into the Dyco Paints and asked manager James Brown. After I explained everything I had done, he said try using a water-based spar urethane instead of the oil-based I had been using. Well no stores in this area carry it, but I did have it delivered within a day. It solved the problem!! Now I have a very clear urethane topcoat. I cannot believe that of all the places I tried, all the websites I searched, James was the only person that could solve this problem.

Love this place. I can't believe that nobody else has yet to post a review about this place. The…read moreguys who work here are extremely helpful and know everything paint related. It's a small, specially paint store that sells much nicer paint than you will find at Home Depot or Lowes. Once you try Benjamin Moore paint, you will never go back to the cheap stuff. The five stars are for the guys who work here. I already know the paint is good, but I want to point out how great the customer service is. They have lots of loyal, repeat customers. As soon as you walk in, you will find out why.

Thinking "oh this will be expensive as it's solely sells paints", but to my surprise it was reasonably priced and about $5.00 less s gallon of paint under the big box store. The gentleman that helped us was very knowledgeable and made good suggestions for our paint project. I will certainly recommend this place and come back for further projects.

There were two employees working and both were immensely helpful breaking down everything. I spoke with the female more and she went in depth with the levels of the paints and also helped us pair some colors for our door color that we wanted to change up. We would keep the same color on our house and just have it repainted. We went home with a few booklets and a handful of swatches and will go on the color snap studio at home and take a pic of our house and plug in the colors we like. Definitely happy with our visit since first time having our home repainted. Will also check out our local location and check out their referred painters they have on display.

This Sherwin Williams store is a great addition to St Pete Beach as the nearest 'big box' home…read moreimprovement store is a solid 25+ minutes away in traffic. It just opened in fall of 2014, is in an excellent location right in the middle of the city near city hall and is very well stocked with anything you could need for a painting project. In addition to paint and paint supplies, there are numerous books of wallpaper options SW also sells. Now, regarding the staff, unfortunately they're still coming up to speed on the product line, so I don't believe they came from another store. For example, my wife asked if there were any paint options that had some sparkle to them; we were confidently told no so we believe it. We kept browsing the store though and what do you know, there is a display for the "Faux Impressions" line of products, which, you guessed it, includes an ingredient that makes it sparkle, or as SW describes it, "Glistening flecks are revealed as your eye follows light reflecting across the surface." So they do indeed have exactly what the sales person told us they didn't. In any case, I'm sure they'll get better with time as the store had only been open for a month or so at the time of our visit.
