Top-Quality Latex Paints for Interior and Exterior Walls

Eggshell paint is a popular interior paint finish that provides a subtle, soft sheen that lies between flat (matte) and satin finishes. It's a versatile option, offering a balance of aesthetics and practicality.
 

Characteristics:

1. Finish: Eggshell paint has a low level of shine, similar to the surface of an eggshell, hence the name. It offers a slight reflectivity that adds dimension to walls without being too glossy.
2. Durability: More durable than flat paint, eggshell is resistant to scuffs and marks. It can withstand moderate cleaning, making it ideal for spaces that experience regular use but aren't exposed to heavy wear and tear.
3. Aesthetic Appeal: The soft sheen provides a more sophisticated look than flat paint while maintaining a subtle finish. It works well in spaces where a sleek but understated appearance is desired.

Best Applications:

• Living Rooms: Adds a touch of elegance without overpowering the room with shine.
• Dining Rooms: Great for adding warmth and style to dining spaces.
• Bedrooms: Provides a cozy and welcoming feel, while still being durable enough for everyday use.
• Hallways and Staircases: Commonly used in moderate-traffic areas where you want a durable finish but not a high gloss.

Advantages:

• Moderate Cleanability: Easier to clean than flat paints, which makes it suitable for spaces like living rooms or bedrooms where occasional cleaning is needed.
• Hides Imperfections: Its low sheen can mask minor wall imperfections, making it more forgiving than higher-gloss paints like satin or semi-gloss.
