Don't like the color of your Valspar paint? No worries, it's on them.


Can you see this happening?

You buy a gallon of Valspar paint, in say, Bayside green, and start to paint your bathroom, when you realize that it looks like a tube of Aquafresh threw up on your wall. Major color disaster. (Been there.  Done that.) Are you stuck with it?  Nah.  It's on Valspar. Here's how to get a rebate on your color mistake:

  1. You bought the wrong color of a gallon of Valspar paint from Lowe's between 4/4/12 and 10/8/12.  You realize that it's the wrong color because you've already painted part of a wall.
  2. Don't return the paint to Lowe's.  Buy a new gallon in the color that you actually want to use.  Make sure to keep BOTH receipts.
  3. Start to repaint, but don't finish.  Leave some of the "mistake paint" up on the wall.
  4. Take a picture of the wall showing both colors.
  5. Complete and print the rebate request form here to apply for a rebate on the purchase price of the wrong color.
  6. Mail in the rebate form, receipt and photo of your motley wall. 
  7. Check your rebate status here.

Awesome.  More info is here, and terms of the offer are here.
