Finish: Matte in living rooms and bedrooms for a soft, premium feel; washable satin in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Before You Paint

Try a sample pot on more than one wall before deciding, as amber shades can look quite different in morning and evening light. It covers cleanly, but light walls show scuffs in busy areas, so keep a little paint aside for touch-ups.
