Yes, Eggshell and Satin are very similar. Though i would recommend scuffing the walls with a sanding block or sandpaper to help with adhesion . Also current and new colors will make a difference, you may need to use primer if applying a lighter color over a darker one or if there are excessive stains on the walls.
I prefer to paint all walls and ceilings satin. I have no idea why people just automatically think that ceilings have to be flat...or even white. I do satin on the ceilings because of dust, yes dust does stick to the ceilings, esp near AC vents and around ceiling fans. Have you ever tried to sweep your flat white ceiling to get the dust off after a few years? It just smears. I think satin ceilings make small rooms brighter and larger. You must use satin or semi on the ceiling in the bathrooms, a bathroom environment is the one interior space that is actually most like an outdoor space with water splashing, steam, humidity, extreme temp changes, I wonder if it would be best to use exterior paint in the bathroom. For ceilings though I pick a white with a bit of grey and go all satin.
No because it looks like the same color sort of. Also it like a litte lighter but you barely can tell .There is technically no difference. That is your answer,Thank you
satin is a very smooth fabric, making it comfortable against skin contact and feels and looks very luxurious the colour of the satin can also help in trying to achieve an impression. eg. princess : pink / pale pink satin. (gives a very girly and royal look)
hope my answer helped. in one way or another.
I would go with gold shoes to match the gold sash, or if you aren't into buying the gold shoes (won't wear them again) a similar color to the brown dress, say a shade lighter. Darker would work if you don't like to draw attention to your feet, but women's feet are generally prettier than they think they are.
Satin is a method (or technique) of weaving not an object and cannot be sustainable or unsustainable. The cloth produced by tis method is shiny and attractive. However, some people refer to the cloth made by this method as satin as well (in the same way French fried potatoes are called "French Fries"). In that case, Satin can be a cloth made of silk, nylon, or polyester and the sustainable nature of the natural fibre sources (silk) are evident while the unsustainable nature of the petrochemical sources are just as evident.
Silk is generally softer, unless it is slubbed silk, which is meant to be rough.
Yes, it will give you a finish between the two. Just remember it you need to touch up a spot down the road, you are going to have a hard time, unless you make the exact mixture again, that's why it is better not to try mixing different paints together.
Its hard enough getting the color to match even when you have a paint code to follow.
Satin is lower gloss than semi-gloss paint.
Paint finishes in order of decreasing gloss are:
* Gloss * Semi-gloss * Satin/Low sheen * Flat Some manufacturers call Satin/Low sheen finish Eggshell, and others regard this as a finish between Satin/Low sheen and Flat paint.
The higher the gloss finish the easier it is to clean, the higher its durabillity and the more it shows surface imperfections.
No, you can dull satin or semi-gloss but not the reverse.

Matt paint will give a room a chalky look. It hides imperfections and is easy to touch up. It is not easy to clean though. This finish is better for ceilings. Gloss paint gives a lacquered look. It is the most durable and easy to clean.
Yes, you can. The whole problem with flat paint over satin is the gloss sheen bleeding through the flat finish. I typically do one of two things for a customer when they have this situation: Either I just plan on two coats of the new paint, or I paint the walls with cheap flat white paint and then paint the top coat with the new paint. I prefer the latter, as I always have buckets of cheap flat white leftover, which saves some cash, as the top coat is usually about $30 per gallon.
More important is, that both paints are of the same kind (like: oil-based paint, acrylic paint, latex paint). Semi-gloss is more easily painted over then high gloss, but first better find out what the old paint layer is made of. Check with the help of alcohol - if paint comes off in any way when you rub it with a cloth of alcohol, it's latex or acrylic paint (and can be painted over with acrylics).
Generally yes but thorough scuff sanding with 200-400 grit sand paper in required. A primer will be advise by most manufacturers as well. A gloss urethane will likely show any imperfections on the surface such as rough sanding scratches.
YES, but first remove any loose or flaking paint then make sure the surface is clean and free of dirt, then you must apply a bonding agent (glue) a.k.a. concrete bonding adhesive, this can be done just like painting with a paint roller. MAKE SURE YOU COVER ENTIRE AREA WITH ADHESIVE BECAUSE IF YOU MISS A SPOT YOUR FRESH COAT OF STUCCO WILL LIKELY CHIP OR FLAKE OFF!
Yes as long as you use the same base paint. You just need to sand it enough to where the paint will adhere. Make sure if the original paint is latex, use latex. If its oil based, use oil based.
Satin is a type of fabric that is made from silk, polyester, or nylon fibers, which are all synthetic or man-made materials. It is not derived from animals or plants directly.
Male satin bowerbirds collect objects that are the same color as a female's eyes: bright blue.
Most people think that satin and silk more or less look the same, why we choose the satin one? Because they are rough on one side and smooth and shiny on the other side,and it is easier to maintain.
During winter, this material warms up, letting you have a peaceful and comfortable night. It does not only keep you warm in winter, but also a perfect material for summer nights.
