Last year, when I got my entire house painted, I selected a semi gloss paint for my kitchen walls. I previously asked the painter: When to use semi gloss interior paint? As per his instructions, I learned that because of its long-lasting, slightly reflecting sheen, semi-gloss interior paint is perfect for high-traffic areas and surfaces that are prone to moisture and stains, such as doors, trim, and kitchen/bathroom walls, where cleaning is a priority.
When to Use Semi Gloss Paint?
Semi-gloss interior paint is a perfect option, when you want a slight sheen, ease of cleaning, and longevity. The ideal places to use this paint are:
Kitchen
Bathrooms
Staircases
Hallways
Kid’s room
Doors, Baseboards, Window frames
These places have high foot traffic, hence using semi gloss paint here makes it easier to wipe and clean it. Semi-gloss can be scrubbed without damaging the finish.
Now that you know when do you use semi gloss paint, let us focus on when not to use it: On flawed walls, as this paint emphasises. As well as in spaces like bedrooms or living rooms where a matte or satin finish is considered ideal.
