Sheen changes how a room looks, how it cleans, and how forgiving it is. A quick guide for Pittsburgh homeowners.
Flat or matte
Hides wall imperfections best and gives a soft, modern look. A good fit for ceilings and lower-traffic rooms like bedrooms.
Eggshell
A subtle glow with easier cleaning than flat. A popular choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and hallways.
Satin
More durable and wipeable. Well suited to kitchens, bathrooms, kids’ rooms, and busy areas.
Semi-gloss
Tough, easy to clean, and it shows off detail. The usual pick for trim, doors, and cabinets.
