How to Choose the Right Paint for Your Home
Choosing the right paint for your home can feel overwhelming with so many brands, finishes, and colours available. This guide will help you make the perfect choice.
Understanding Paint Finishes
Matte Finish: Best for ceilings and low-traffic areas. Hides imperfections well but harder to clean.
Satin Finish: The most popular choice for living rooms and bedrooms. Slight sheen, easy to clean.
Gloss Finish: Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, and trim work. Highly durable and washable.
Semi-Gloss: A balance between satin and gloss. Great for kids' rooms and high-traffic areas.
How Much Paint Do You Need?
A general rule: 1 litre covers approximately 100-130 sq ft for one coat. Most walls need 2 coats.
For a standard 10x12 feet room: - Walls: approximately 8-10 litres - Ceiling: approximately 3-4 litres
