[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I normally do flat for ceilings, eggshell for interior walls and semi gloss for doors, trim and furniture. [/quote] This is the rule of thumb. When I used Ben Moore, it ended up needing two coats of white to completely cover the light beige underneath. I also used two coats and no primer with the Home Depot brand. I used the low-VOC (i.e., stinky chemicals) varieties of both brands, and BM stopped smelling after a week, but the Home Depot took at least 2 months to stop smelling. So I'll use BM again.[/quote]
