Excellent color saturation

For a living and dining room that share a vaulted ceiling with a wood center beam at the peak I used three colors, shades of Gray; Shade for the wood beam and other wooden accent trim around the top of an inset-room; Chill for the walls of the living room and dining room; and, Motor City for the walls of the inset-room. Very subtle, very calming and oddly, it seems quieter as well.

Thanks to Clare for its 10 swatch packets to select color combo's for the color challenged like myself.

Gorgeous Grey

I was looking for a grey for my entryway, upper and downstairs hallways. I pretty much ordered all of the grey swatches Clare has. I was looking for a medium toned grey that would brighten up my walls. I went with Motor City. It almost has a tinge of blue but it the perfect neutral grey to balance out other colors in my house (Meet Cute, Dirty Martini and Whipped)

Best paint on the market

Clare paint looks and feels like velvet on your wall. This is the only brand of paint that covers the area it claims per gallon and does so beautifully. The name brand paints you get at the hardware store require multiple gallons to do what one gallon and Clare can do, and no, the other online brand doesn't compare to Clare! Whatever your paint needs, Clare has you covered.

Fabulous Experience

I am so pleased and impressed with my Clare Paint experience! From the online view to the peel & stick swatches to the actual paint, what you see TRULY IS what you get! I've had very very limited experience with painting The coverage & clean up was better than expected! Not to mention, I love love LOVE the final results! Customer service is top-notch, too! I can't say enough...but I try ;)

Clare is the best

This is the 4 paint color I’ve purchased from Clare and I am never disappointed. This time we hired professionals to paint a larger area and they told me they were pretty impressed with the paint themselves. Not only did they notice the low fumes but how well the paint covered the walls. Will always recommend any Clare paint color.
