Just FYI, from a paint FAQ: Those terms refer to the sheen or gloss level of the paint. The sheen or gloss level simply means the degree of light reflectance of the paint. High Gloss (70+ on a 60 degree gloss meter) More durable, stain resistant & easier to wash. However, the higher the gloss, the more likely surface imperfections will be noticed. Semigloss (35 to 70 on a 60 degree gloss meter) More stain-resistant & easier to clean than flat paints. Better than flat for high-traffic areas. Satin or Silk (Range overlapping eggshell & semigloss) Similar characteristics to Semigloss & Eggshell. Eggshell (20 to 30 on a 60 degree gloss meter) It resists stains better than flat paint & gives a more lustrous appearance. Flat (less than 15 on a 60 degree gloss meter) Hides surface imperfections. Stain removal can be difficult. Use for uniform, nonreflecting appearance. Best suited for low-traffic areas. -- Cliff http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~csimpson/Chevelle.html ----------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
