Glidden paint: Evermore vs Endurance

Aug 12, 2003 7 Replies

In a recent Consumer Reports, they had Glidden Endurance exterior latex paint as one of the top performers. However, when I checked at Home Despot they did not have Endurance, they only had a type called Glidden "Evermore". In fact, I can't seem to find Endurance anywhere. Does anyone know what the difference is between these? Is Evermore a decent paint?



Thanks,

Here's what google has to say:

With a quick glance, it looks like the Endurance is a stain not a paint. I'm with you, though, because I read the CR and saw it as paint as well.

Already did the Googling before I posted here. There is an 'Endurance' stain, but there is also a paint by that name. I'm only interested in the paint.

Glidden Endurance paint can only be purchased at Sherwin Williams paint stores. I had the Glidden Endurance paint used on my trim in

2001 and the painter said it was the best around.

I find that amusing, I gues somebody bought out somebody, I always used to use Glidden on my rental properties, and Sherwin Williams was a competitor.

My mistake - I confused Sherwin Williams Duration with Glidden Endurance. Glidden Endurance is a stain. Sorry.

Your joking right? I hope so, I really don't think it's funny to outright lie to someone. Sherwin Williams stores are company owned stores, they sell Sherwiin Williams paint and NO other, also NO other paint company or store sells Sherwin Williams paint out of their store. I think you owe the guy an apology. Al

They still are. Don't believe everything you read.
