Sheen refers to paint’s shininess. When deciding on paint sheen, consider the condition of the wall and whether the area is high/low traffic. Here’s a partial list to get started:
Our super-premium products offer the same durability and washability in all sheens, so the selection of the finish is more of a personal preference. But here are a few things to remember:
Stain opacity levels range from clear to solid, with the amount of pigment in a stain determining its opacity. Translucent, Semi-Transparent, and Semi-Solid stains are designed to protect without completely obscuring the natural colour and texture of wood. As the opacity moves towards solid, less grain shows through the finish. In contrast, solid stains will completely mask the wood grain, while allowing the wood texture to show through, and the greater its protection will be over time.
VOC means Volatile Organic Compounds. The paint industry is filled with definitions of what “green paint” is. Other manufacturers use tints that add VOCs to their paints, but Benjamin Moore’s waterborne tinting technology ensures that our paints retain their low- or zero-VOC properties.
REGAL Select Exterior High Build is a thick, high-build, 100% acrylic formula that bridges small cracks and voids in fewer coats.
With dense, golden yellow fabric that resists matting for complete coverage and minimal spattering, Benjamin Moore high-capacity roller covers provide superior performance. They have outstanding paint-holding capacity for time-saving application with all flat paints and stains.
Benjamin Moore Chinex professional paintbrushes are made with DuPont® synthetic bristles, the same popular formulation that painters request by name. They create a smooth finish, have low moisture absorption for stiffness retention, and clean up easily. Outstanding paint capacity delivers fast results with all Benjamin Moore paints.
A trusted brand for over 60 years, Regal Select Waterborne Interior is synonymous with durability, washability, and the ability to stand up to everyday wear and tear.
