[quote=Anonymous]I had a friend vaguely suggest to me that it's more economical to paint with Benjamin Moore than with other brands because it typically requires only one coat. So I think, OK, I'll go find some BM paint and use that. So of course it turns out there are all different kinds of finish, there's primer, etc. I don't really understand the distinction between matte / satin /semi-gloss / eggshell. Is there a rule of thumb when it comes to which kind of finish you use in which room (I'm talking about interior paining)? Is my friend right about it taking only one coat or is that wishful thinking?[/quote]
