I had heard a few years back that Wal-Mart Paint was Excellent...made by
one
of the big guns in the paint industry. At the time, I bought Wal-Mart
interior paint with good results.

Is there exterior paint just as good? I will be painting my house this
next
month and would like to get the best paint there is for the best possible
price. Wal-Mart is going for $60 for 5 gallon pail.



Last year when I asked, they claimed it was Sherwin-Williams. I asked a
local who works there who would hear tales from users the generic "Is it
any good?" question. He responded "They sell more paint than anyone
else." I said that was the answer to a different question. He didn't
respond further.

I did buy a gallon (oil-base exterior) for a trial on the house. It
seemed "OK", but not long enough yet to compare.
