Satin

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.

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.

No, you can dull satin or semi-gloss but not the reverse.

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.

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.

Add a little talcum powder to the paint.

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.

You sure can, as long as both products are latex based or both are oil based, etc... The mixed result will also have a different sheen than both of the originals, so make sure that you have enough left over for touch ups later.

The finish. Most people prefer stainless with a high shine (polished) finish. Satin has a dull finish to it (unpolished)

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. Satin refreshes your skin and rescues it from warmth and humidity. A Satin Combed Yarn 100% Cotton Sheet Set surely provides a luxurious feeling with continued use.

Using satin pillowcases and 100% Cotton Sheet Set will help maintain hair's moisture, which in turn makes it easier to preserve your hairstyle, and saves the trouble of rear ranging and untangling it when you wake up the next day. Using satin pillowcases avoid dry and damaged hair, as satin has proven itself as a good agent for reducing hair breakage.

It will get glossy for sure, they do make a satin clear this will Allow you to compound out light scratches. If you were going to try to rub the scratches out of satin or flat paint that area will get a gloss.

Hope this helps

A lot of people, including myself , thought the title was Knights in White Satin, which could refer to female detectives as well as St. Joan types. it does fit in with the lyrics. It is a beautiful and haunting song. The singer is ( fictionaly) going through a love-loss or displacement crisis but it is not terminal llike (White Room). Thus the song is haunting but not necessarily morbid. The lyrics are haunting! Gazing at people, some hand in hand- could refer to events as diverse as a party , a dance, or a funeral parlor! and the song- not the poem that follows it- ends on an upbeat note- whatever you want to be, you will be ( or receive) in the end! and I love you, whoa-hoa, i LOVE YOU, YES I Love you! what a powerful song.
