Paints come in various types and finishes, and we understand what is best for different areas of your home. You have some choices in the finish of the paint used for interior and exterior projects. Examples of finishes include flat, satin, semi-gloss, and gloss and each one is best for certain conditions. Our experienced staff can help you decide which is best for you.

Flat paint provides a matte finish, so it doesn’t include lustre. Because of its finish, it’s hard to wash marks off the walls so you should use it in rooms that see light use. You wouldn’t want to use it in children’s rooms where handprints and pencil marks are common occurrences. It does hide imperfections, so it’s a good choice if your walls aren’t very smooth. It’s also a common choice for ceilings as well.

Satin finishes are sometimes called eggshell because it is similar in texture to an egg’s shell. It has a slight sheen which makes it more washable and resistant to stains than a flat finish. It isn’t very reflective, so it still hides many wall imperfections and is a common interior wall finish.

Semi-gloss is even more durable and washable that satin but it’s increased reflectivity shows more dings and blemishes on the walls. It’s a great choice for areas that require heavy cleaning such as kitchens and bathrooms. Its durability also makes it a good choice for trims and cabinets.

Gloss is the shiniest paint, which makes it the easiest to clean and the most durable. It is mostly used on trims, cabinets, baseboards, furniture, doors, and other areas that are likely to receive heavy wear. Our knowledgeable staff can help you with the best choices for interior painting in Capalaba.

We can also make the outside of your house look great with exterior painting in Capalaba. Even though latex paints have improved over the years and can be as durable as oil-based paints, you should use an oil-based paint if it’s currently on your home. We can help you decide what would best suit your needs.
