PPG Revolution

In my post "Paint or Replace" Jennifer Temple suggested using PPG Revolution. Aside from what she wrote I haven't seen much about this paint on the internet. Does anyone else here have any comments on this paint?

Hi, I hadn't heard of Revolution before so I looked into this real quick. It seems that Revolution is part of the Pittsburgh Paints & Stains brand that is exclusive to Menards in the USA. It seems like it might be a relabel of the PPG UltraLast (which is what we carry) available in PPG dealers and Home Depot.

The sheens do run a bit high, but it is extremely stain and burnish resistant, even in the matte or eggshell.

I can't find a direct match to the Sico Evolution in PPG's US products. Based on the website, I would guess Manor Hall, but none of the data sheets match up. Maybe it's a formulation they have not brought down south yet.

Never seen Sico out this way - or even heard of it until now.

It's a PPG brand exclusive to Canada.

I am wondering how it compares to BM Scuff-X and Behr Scuf-Defense.

I know they tested Scuff-X for it's stain resistance when they were developing UltraLast (it didn't do well), but I have not seen any direct comparison for burnish and mar resistance between the two.

Manor Hall I believe is discontinued.

It's not. Manor Hall is being made available only to independent dealers. It is being removed from Home Depot and corporate stores. Its replacement, for corporate stores and HD, is Prominence, which we are not allowed to order. They're probably cross-fills, but only someone at PPG knows that for sure. They also even brought back Manor Hall exterior as a dealer-only exclusive.
