The best paint for the surface: A well-lit area such as a sunroom will need a paint that's able to hold up to UV rays without fading, while a semigloss paint is ideal for doors, windows, trim and shutters -- providing added protection and visual appeal. If you're painting a surface with many imperfections, you'll find that it's best complemented by paint that has a matte finish. Home Painting
