PPG Paint Samples
PPG (and its Glidden line) covers a huge range of muted, livable colors. Because so many sit close together, seeing two or three candidates side by side on the wall is the quickest way to tell them apart.
Real PPG peel-and-stick swatches are sold by Samplize for about $5.95 each.
Popular PPG Colors to Sample
These are the PPG shades people test most. Order a couple together and compare them on the wall.
How to Test a PPG Color
- Order your top two or three colors as peel-and-stick swatches or small sample pots.
- Put them on more than one wall — color shifts between a wall facing the sun and one in shade.
- Look at them in the morning and again at night under your lamps before deciding.
- Hold the winner next to your trim, floor, and big furniture, not just the bare wall.
- Once you choose, any paint store can mix that exact PPG color in the finish and size you need.
PPG Sample FAQ
How much do PPG paint samples cost?
PPG peel-and-stick swatches are about $5.95 each from Samplize. Traditional sample pots, where offered, run a few dollars more.
Are the samples real PPG paint?
Yes. Samplize swatches are made with two coats of genuine PPG paint, so the color matches what you would get in a full gallon.
How many colors should I order?
Three to five is typical. Colors look different next to each other and under changing light, so testing a few side by side beats guessing on one.
