I am about to pain the interior of a rental property.


The property is in the San Francisco area and is a nice property, the
rent
will be about $2100 a month which is on the low side as similar rentals
are
$2600 per month. Just wanted to mention this to put it in perspective as
the bay area has insane home prices.


Picked Kelly Moore Navajo White for the walls for the living and dining
rooms and bedrooms.


Was thinking of using eggshell on the walls; is this a good or bad idea?
Future maintenance will be to fix holes in the walls (where thiings were
hung on the walls), as the tenants move out. So I am not necessarily
looking for eggshell in order to wash marks off the wall. Most of the
upkeep will be touch up paint. So for touchup which would be better flat
or
eggshell?


I need a color for the trim and ceilings, I wanted to keep the ceiling
and
trim color the same if possible. Swiss coffee? Antique white?


Looking for a popular stock Kelly Moore trim / ceiling color.


Of course flat on the ceiling and semi gloss on the trim, doors, and
window
frames.


Thanks


Nobody cares about that ****. What tube gear are you using these days,
and how do you like it? That's what we want to know.


swiss coffee for the trim, eggshell is ok and it cleans better than flat- Hide quoted text -

Use a premixed color, not a custom color, next time you repaint the
paint will match, white ceiling, semi gloss trim.
