Now most importantly, finish off with the Prestige laying off brush.
This will give a flat, high gloss finish. The flatter the surface, the higher the gloss will appear. Again, use a sash brush to ensure even coverage in the corners of the panels but use a Prestige short pile mini roller for all the flat surfaces. You should lastly tackle the doors.
If you have panelled doors, it is best to use a sash brush to follow the grain of the wood. Should I add a high gloss or semi gloss paint? Also, I chose Behr paint white metal for my kitchen walls..

I prefer the satin finish and that's all I specify unless the client has a strong desire for a shiny floor.
First of all it's more forgiving of any scratches and wear, so that's perfect for a house with a dog. Secondly, you can appreciate the colour and beauty of the floor more when there's less reflection. I find a glossy floor reflects so much sometimes that you can't really see the floor--just the reflection. I've attached a photo of a project I did with satin floors so you can see the extent of reflection of light from the windows not much!
Should I do a satin finish or semi gloss finish for kitchen cabinets Q. Well, it depends. Always sand in the direction of the grain. This surface had a couple of coats of wood stain on it and it was straightforward to key up. If the surface you plan to paint has several layers of old paint on it, you may have to start with a coarser grade of paper to get rid of any imperfections.
Wear a dust mask for this part of the job. Use a sharp Stanley-type knife to cut the tape neatly into the corners.
This will stop any paint getting on the glass and allows you to flow the paint on, rather than the tentative daubing thats associated with cutting in. Use a tack cloth to remove any dust before you begin painting. This window frame looked clean; the tack cloth proved otherwise.
Brush sizes 12mm, 25mm and 50mm will cover most undercoating and glossing jobs. The better the brush the better the finish, so buy the best you can afford. Open and stir the undercoat. We find its better to start painting in the middle and work outwards to avoid putting brush marks in paint that is starting to dry. On a window frame, that means starting on the wood thats closest to the glass.
