AAA PAINT & SUPPLY in Tempe, AZ, has answered thousands of paint-related questions over the years, and we've compiled the most common ones right here. If your question isn't answered below, give us a call at (480) 307-8552 — our knowledgeable team is always happy to help.

  • How Much Paint Do I Need for My Project?

    As a general guideline, one gallon of paint covers approximately 350 to 400 square feet with a single coat on a smooth surface. Textured walls, porous surfaces, or colors requiring two coats will increase your paint needs. To get an accurate estimate, use the Benjamin Moore paint calculator available on the Benjamin Moore website, or ask our team at the store.


    When in doubt, buying slightly more paint than you think you need is the smarter approach. Extra paint from the same batch ensures you have a perfect match for future touch-ups, and our staff helps you calculate quantities accurately to avoid waste.

  • Can You Match Colors From Other Paint Brands?

    Yes. We offer professional color matching for colors from any paint brand, including Sherwin-Williams, PPG, Behr, Valspar, Farrow & Ball, and others. Bring in a paint chip, a color card, or a small physical sample, and we'll scan it with our spectrophotometer and formulate your color into a Benjamin Moore product of your choice. This gives you the exact color you want in a professional-grade, high-quality formulation.

  • Do You Offer Paint Delivery?

    Yes. We offer delivery to homes and job sites throughout the Phoenix Valley. Our delivery service covers the Tempe area and extends valley-wide, with a 5-gallon minimum order required. Delivery charges may apply for locations beyond a 20-mile radius from our Tempe store. To arrange delivery, call us at (480) 307-8552.
