The key is what level of gloss you’re looking for. Gloss is the shine that
reflects off the painted finish surface. The four different kinds of glosses are flat, satin, semi-gloss and gloss.
The kind of gloss you’re going to want depends on how much action the room
you’re looking to paint might see.
The flat gloss paints is great for rooms that don’t have much risk for potential
damage, unlike a kid’s room. The satin finish is more suitable for a children’s
room because it’s more stain resistant, making it easier to clean. Another
level higher than the satin finish is the semi gloss paint. It’s even easier to
clean than the satin kind as well as extremely durable. The gloss that is
normally used for the crowded rooms like the kitchens and dining rooms is the
gloss paint. It’s a hard type of paint that is easy to clean and incredibly
stain resistant.
Before you decide on painting the house or apartment, do it after the
movers have left your residence. They may have caused some accidental
damage to your walls that might have to be repaired before you start painting
your house or apartment. There is no point in doing it twice.
Consider the size of your family, how many kids you plan on having jumping
around your house than you’ll be able choose the right paint with the right
gloss.
