Valspar
Hardware store paint
Valspar is a brand of paints and coatings, commonly found at hardware stores and home improvement centers.
The name appears frequently in DIY contexts: I picked up some Valspar for the bedroom walls.
Founded in 1806, it became one of the oldest and largest paint manufacturers in North America before being acquired by Sherwin-Williams.
