Hi,

I have a bathroom wall to paint.
Presently has old latex paint on it; peeling a bit from moisture (even with
an exhaust fan).

Have heard about this Benjamin Moore K&B (Kitchen & Bathroom) Latex paint.

I guess I'm dating myself here, but I always thought that Latex paints were
Always a poor choice for an area that sees "some" moisture. That the only
way to go was to use an oil based paint.

Are these new Latex paints, like this one, really that much better, and
suitable
for, e.g., a bathroom ?

Anyone have any experience with this specific Benjamin Moore Kitchen &
Bathroom
Latex paint ?

Thanks,
Bob

To quote another --"This ain't your father's Oldsmobile"...

Short answer--"yes". Current latex enamels are quite good and while I
haven't used this particular BM product, I would have no qualms. Of
course, as often noted (and often ignored), the most important thing in
a paint job is preparation--the best/most expensive paint in the world
won't last if it goes on a poorly prepared surface.
