TYPES OF GLOSS IN INTERIOR PAINT

EACH TYPE OF FINISH OFFERS DIFFERENCES IN APPEARANCE, DURABILITY, AND MAINTENANCE

At JPH Renovations we advise you to choose the ideal finish according to the use of the space, whether residential, commercial or for rental properties.

FLAT (MATTE) PAINT

Flat paint provides a completely matte, smooth, and uniform finish. It is ideal for creating elegant, warm, and sophisticated environments while helping to conceal surface imperfections such as patches, small cracks, and minor irregularities.

Recommended Areas (Residential)

  • Bedrooms
  • Living rooms
  • Ceilings
  • Low-traffic areas

Commercial Use

  • Rental apartments or homes (bedrooms and living areas)
  • Private offices
  • Areas where frequent cleaning is not required

Benefits

  • Excellent coverage
  • Refined, elegant appearance
  • Helps hide wall imperfections

Important Consideration

Flat paint is not recommended for high-traffic areas or spaces that require frequent cleaning, as it is less resistant to stains and scrubbing.

EGGSHELL PAINTING

Eggshell finish offers a very low sheen, similar to eggshell.
It is one of the most popular interior paint choices due to its ideal balance
between aesthetics and durability. This finish provides subtle resistance while
maintaining a smooth appearance without highlighting surface imperfections.

Recommended Areas (Residential)

  • Living rooms
  • Dining rooms
  • Hallways

commercial environments.
