Hello

Am having the interior of my home painted.

The painter is giving me the option of semi-gloss enamel in an
oil-based or acrylic semi-gloss enamel for the:

doors, door frames, baseboards, window frame, stair risers and the
fireplace mantle.


The price is the same, what are the pros and cons of oil and
acrylic and is there anything to consider in terms of touch up or
maintenance?

Oil will make a better looking (smoother) job. It is harder. It
washes easily. If you recoat (or need to fix a spot) someday, it
sands well in prep for the new.

My opinion: if it's wood, use oil.
