When you move into your new home, the walls and ceilings will glisten. The look of fresh wall paint is stunning. It’s a challenge to clean walls coated with standard flat wall paint.

Most paint stores carry these products. Once you have decided on the type of paint to use, you must select the colors. You can put a lighter-colored glaze over a dark wall, or vice versa.

For example, on smooth walls nap length should be three-eighths inch when applying ordinary flat wall paint, but if the wall is stippled or slightly textured, a half-inch cover will work better.

Just build the pantry room and finish the walls with drywall. Paint it with semigloss white paint. This is bright, to reflect light, and it is also easier to clean than flat wall paint.
