How To Choose The Right Paint Sheen

Sheen affects look, durability, and cleanability. Use this quick guide to match sheen to each room. If you want help, schedule an interior painting visit and we will review sheen choices in person.

Ceilings

Flat hides imperfections and keeps glare down. It is the default choice for most ceilings.

Walls

Eggshell balances washability with a soft look. In high traffic rooms, satin can be a smart upgrade.

Trim And Doors

Satin or semi gloss handle bumps and fingerprints. They also frame walls with a subtle highlight.

Kitchens And Baths

Moisture calls for tougher finishes and proper primers. Ask about products designed for humid spaces.
