- satin finish or semi-gloss paint reflects sunlight and are easy to clean
- priming your walls is a very important step in getting your walls ready to paint, especially, if your surface is not flat, unfinished, never painted before, or painting over a glossy surface. primer is formulated to adhere well to the surface, and will bond well with the paint
