How to Choose Interior Paint by Sherman Williams

The type of paint you'll use depends on how the room to be painted will be used and the type of finish you want. 
Interior paint is specifically formulated to provide:
Scrubbability and stain resistance
Good hiding ability
Good coverage
Spatter resistance
Easy touch-up

Interior house paints are either latex- or oil/alkyd-based. Today, most oil-based paints are made with synthetic resins (alkyds), which makes them the best type of paint for interior walls when compared to paints based comprised on natural oils. Each has different characteristics and uses.

Ditto for potential buyers whose offers were rejected and who are staying put for now. If you’re coping with inflation but eyeing a home improvement, a smaller remodel is worth considering.
Small projects are suit ...
