General
What is the difference between eggshell, satin or semi gloss finishes?
Eggshell finish is a great option for bedrooms and living rooms, thanks to its smooth, low-luster sheen that effortlessly hides imperfections on the walls. When it comes to areas that are prone to moisture and frequent cleaning, like kitchens and bathrooms, satin finish is the way to go. Its durability and moisture resistance make it perfect for maintaining a beautiful appearance despite the challenges. As for doors, trim, and moldings, the semi-gloss finish truly shines. With its higher sheen and excellent durability, it offers both protection and easy maintenance, elevating the overall look of these architectural elements. By selecting the appropriate finish for each specific area, you can effortlessly combine aesthetic appeal with practicality in your paint choices.

What does excellent adhesion mean?
Excellent adhesion in paint means it sticks really well. When paint has excellent adhesion, it forms a strong bond with the surface, preventing it from peeling or cracking. This is important because it ensures the paint stays put, even when exposed to moisture, temperature changes, or wear and tear. With excellent adhesion, paint not only looks great but also provides long-lasting protection. So, it's a crucial quality to look for in high-quality paint.
What does Freeze-thaw Resistant mean?
When paint is freeze-thaw resistant, it can endure the expansion and contraction caused by freezing temperatures, followed by the melting of ice or snow. This resilience ensures that the paint maintains its integrity and performance over time, without cracking, peeling, or losing adhesion.
