Gloss and semi-gloss paint may seem similar, but there
are some important differences between the two that can influence the
appearance of your home.
Gloss and semi-gloss refer to the paint’s reflectivity,
or sheen, when it’s dry. Gloss paint has a shiny appearance that can also add
space and warmth to living areas, and it is generally easier to clean since its
surface does not readily absorb stains; it is commonly used in bathrooms,
kitchens, and entranceways. Semi-gloss paint is still shinier compared to flat
or satin paints, but it does absorb some light and can draw less attention to
minor imperfections in the walls. Remember that the quality is a better
indicator of its longevity than the sheen.
