Sherwin Williams Emerald -- Matte or Satin?

reddit.com › r › centuryhomes › comments › 12m7kmw › sherwin_williams_emerald_matte_or_satin

Painter here, 20 years experience. Personal opinion…emerald is an amazing paint but not worth it’s cost. I get great results with the much less expensive duration and even super paint. I know SW loves to push emerald because it’s their absolute top shelf and very expensive but the price point difference is much more than the actual difference in quality. If I was painting my own home and wanted the best possible paint at a reasonable price, I’d absolutely go with duration. Answer from BasketballButt on reddit.com

Emerald - Matte vs Satin

Have worked for both companies as of recent actually. Sherwin’s Emerald is their top interior paint. It rolls on fairly nicely and covers pretty well. Ben is more of a mid tier paint. A more 1:1 comparison would be to look at either Aura or Regal Select. The BM paints use a thicker colorant for formulation, so personally I think the BM paint covers much better. Also if color accuracy is important to you, BM uses 13 different colorants to make its colors, whereas SW only uses 9, so BM is more likely to be color accurate with their own colors. On the topic of matte vs satin, I personally used Emerald and Duration for painting my house because I was working at SW and used both sheens. Even though matte is “more washable than flat”, scuff marks still don’t REALLY wash away that easy. With the Satin walls, it is MUCH easier to remove marks. If you decide to go with SW, I recommend using either Emerald or Duration Satin. If you go with Ben Moore, I recommend using either Aura or Regal Select in EGGSHELL (BM Satin is higher sheen than EG. At SW, it’s the same thing) More on reddit.com

Homeowner Q: help deciding between Emerald flat vs matte, or Duration flat vs matte

It really doesn’t matter. They’re both very similar products. Seeing as how we’re at the height of a paint shortage, you’re probably going to have to just go with whatever you can find at your local SW More on reddit.com

Sherwin Williams Emerald -- Matte or Satin?

Their Velvet Matte finish is pretty washable, and not as shiny as the satin finish. The satin is way too shiny for me. More on reddit.com
