With the number of finishes available today, the choice can be as difficult as choosing the type of paint and colour for a room. So it’s important to remember that sheen refers to how shiny paint looks when dry.
Matt paints provide a smooth, yet stylish finish, hiding blemishes on the wall surface. Both eggshell and Non-Drip enamel are easy to clean and have good stain resistance, while high-gloss paint has a very shiny finish.
A good rule of thumb is to first consider the area being painted. High traffic areas need a durable, scrubbable paint that resists stains and marring. Semi-gloss paints are suitable for high moisture areas like kitchens and bathrooms or children’s playrooms where additional cleaning will likely be required.
Choosing a superior quality paint like Prominent Premium not only makes the job of painting a room easier, it also ensures a long-lasting result your Mother will love. So choose to enter this competition to stand a chance of winning this exclusive paint hamper for that special woman you call Mom.

Fast Tips
◊ Always mix the paint
thoroughly with a flat paddle before pouring into the paint tray.
◊ If working with different paint colours, slip the paint tray into a plastic bag and pour the paint onto the bag. Simply remove the bag and pour the paint into the clean tray when a colour change is required.
◊ Never dilute paint to achieve more coverage. This only compromises quality and lowers adhesion strength. compromise many of the properties of the product such as scrubbability, stain resistance, opacity and adhesion strength. You can contact the Prominent Paint Technical Services for advice.
◊ Before painting, always wash the roller in clean water to remove traces of fluff. Spin dry the roller to remove excess water; then hang up to dry thoroughly.
◊ When applying paint, cut around cornices, ceilings, skirtings and corners first, then fill in with a roller.
◊ Adhere to drying times indicated on the paint container before applying a subsequent coat. This will ensure proper coverage and a quality, professional finish.
