Glidden Paint Colors 3,100 colors in 13 families.
Glidden is PPG's mass-retail brand and the one paint name you'll find at Home Depot, Walmart, and Lowe's — its own named deck, mixed to order at the counter for the price-conscious repaint.
Every Glidden Color, by Family
Each family page ranks the colors people actually buy, sorts the whole family by undertone and depth, and shows every color on real walls.
White is the hardest color to specify well.
Gray285 colorsGray is the most-recommended neutral in American interiors — the safe choice that anchors a room without committing to a strong color.
Neutral550 colorsNeutrals are the colors that aren't quite gray and aren't quite tan — the warm, low-saturation in-between bucket where greige, taupe, mushroom, bone, and accessible beige all live.
Black11 colorsTrue black on a wall almost always looks heavier than you expected.
Yellow287 colorsYellow is the highest-risk wall color in residential interiors — it can read cheerful and sun-warmed in the right room, or oppressive and dated under the wrong light.
Orange143 colorsOrange is back — not the saturated 1970s shag-carpet orange, but warm earth tones (terracotta, rust, sienna), soft peach and apricot, and the cult-favorite coral and persimmon shades that designers reach for as a softer alternative to red.
Red98 colorsRed is divisive as a wall color, which is exactly why it works so well in the right room — a dining room, a powder room, or a single accent on cabinetry.
Pink272 colorsPink stopped being a kids-room-only color around 2018, when "millennial pink" started showing up on dining-room walls and powder-room cabinetry.
Purple200 colorsPurple is the most under-used wall color in American interiors — and that's exactly why it lands when it does.
Blue270 colorsBlue is the most popular color for accent walls, kitchen islands, and front doors — and also the family with the widest spread, from pale dove-blues that read almost grey, to inky near-black navies, to saturated cobalts that read almost royal.
Teal207 colorsTeal is the in-between blue-green that reads moody, marine, or jewel-tone depending on which side of the family you pick.
Green303 colorsGreen has quietly replaced grey as the safe-but-interesting wall color of the late 2020s.
Brown160 colorsBrown is in.
About Glidden Paint Colors
Glidden colors are built for the everyday repaint rather than the boutique scheme: the deck is strongest on warm whites, livable neutrals, and the mid-saturation shades a typical homeowner actually reaches for. It's a more focused palette than the premium brands carry, which makes it quick to narrow down when budget and same-day availability matter as much as the exact shade.
What sets Glidden apart isn't the size of the deck but where you can buy it — it's the only mass-retail brand stocked at all three big-box chains, so a color you pick can be matched and mixed almost anywhere. The modern formulas have also tightened up the old lot-to-lot color drift, so a single-batch room job reads consistently from the first gallon to the last.
Choosing a Glidden Color
Because the deck leans toward whites and neutrals, decide first whether you want a true neutral or a shade with a clear undertone, pick that family, then sort by LRV to get the depth right for the room's light — higher LRV to keep a dim room bright, lower for a cozier feel. Glidden's deep saturated colors are thinner on the ground than the premium decks, so if you're after a bold accent, sample it on the wall and judge how it holds across the day before committing to gallons.
Where to Buy Glidden Paint
Every Glidden color is tinted to order at the paint desk, so what you browse here is a real, buyable product, not a fixed pre-canned shade. The big advantage is reach: Home Depot, Walmart, and Lowe's all mix it, plus most independent hardware stores, so you can pick a color and walk out with it the same day — and match the same wall later even if you're shopping in a different city. If you want the same lot across a multi-gallon job, ask the desk to pull matching lot numbers.
Matching Glidden Across Brands
If you love a Glidden shade but want to buy elsewhere, tap the swatch to find its nearest match across the other US brands — Behr, Valspar, Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, or the Kompozit deck — so the color travels with you. The match works off the real hex value; on neutrals and pastels it reads very close, and on deep saturated colors you can see exactly how close before you choose a counter.
