Choosing the right paint for your home - Handyman Matters tells us about how to figure out the best type of paint to use for your home. There are many choices but there are guidelines for what paint to use in each specific room of your house. Latex is water based and is easy to clean. Oil-based paints are more durable, but tend to crack and fade, and require mineral spirits to clean. Semi-gloss is good for kids rooms, high gloss is good for trim and cabinets because they are high-contact. Ceilings are fine with flat because they aren't touched.
