    Great prices fast shipping. One item on my order ended up being out of stock they contacted me with a substitute product as to not delay shipping. Will definitely order my paint supplies from bottom paint store for all future orders.

    Could not get them to give me a starting point for how much thinner to use in my paint. I ended up applying and it was too thick. Quality of the material is good but we will see how it stands up to the water.

    I really have no problem with the order however I do have a suggestion. The top of the can had a plastic ring on it to protect it from being damaged the bottom of the can did not have the same plastic ring and the bottom of the can was severely dented when I received it; luckily no paint leaked out.

    Very good customer service and very quick shipping all the way up too Vancouver BC Canada. I messed up my order online and didn’t choose the colour I wanted. I emailed them with my order number. Then sent me a email back saying they let the shipping department know what colour I wanted. 7-10 days later the right colour showed up. Very happy. Very helpful staff. Would definitely ordered from them again and recommend them to anyone looking for boat paint ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I had 2 boat 2 do. terrible service, I had ordered 1 gal for 1 and came about a pint short so I ordered 2 more gal to finish that 1 and to do the other. I waited three weeks for the gray and had to change the color to get the paint. Received the misty white and it was damaged. Cannot get a break. Now i had to order a separate quart to finish first boat. Damaged paint is still pending.

    Ben, We totally understand your frustration. We try hard to keep in step with the manufacturer for inventory updates. Unfortunately raw materials have been hard to come by this season with base chemicals/tints and consequently have caused delays. We are sorry also to hear the paint arrived damaged. We take this seriously and are addressing this with the carrier and manufacturer. Sincerely, Bottom Paint Store

    This was my first order . And I was a bit skeptical so I ordered the bare minimum to make sure all went well I ordered two separate gallons of gel coat the first arrived in perfect condition. The second not so much and I feared calling and having to deal with customer service. I was directed to the website and followed there process to report damaged product not there fault can was damaged in shipping .within 24 hours I was contacted back to send pictures of damage and within 24 hours they had started processing my replacement. I cannot believe it was so simple I have already made additional purchases for AL the other products I needed for my boat Paint project and recommend them highly to anyone in need of boat paint more businesses should follow there example

    Excellent response to our order. Packages arrived on time with each gallon of paint intact with a only minor dents that were probably the result of the shipper. Boxes were intact and each gallon of paint was packaged to prevent movement of the cans within the boxes. Great job with excellent response time. One week from their location to Olympia WA. Couldn't ask for more.

    Project had to be postponed at significant cost because it took two weeks to receive an in-stock product, only three days of that was shipping. Weather was cited as an issue; however, had the product shipped in a timely manner, the weather would have had no impact.

    Great service! Part of my order got destroyed in shipping and Bottom paint store was working to correct the problem before I was even aware of the issue. They had it fixed overnight. I'll definitely be a returning customer and recommend to others.
