Shedding the light on sheen and gloss.

*Use a low gloss/sheen when there’s a wall with lots of imperfections.  Low gloss and sheen will hide flaws – especially in interiors.

*Use higher gloss/sheen when the room has lots of traffic and therefore needs lots of cleaning. High-gloss/sheen paints are traditionally easier to clean and most stain resistant.  That’s why you see glossy finishes in the bathroom and kitchens.
