When painting kitchen walls, choose satin or semi-gloss acrylic latex paint for maximum endurance. Satin gives you a smooth finish with moderate strength, while semi-gloss adds superior cleanability and wear resistance—great for messy zones. Acrylic latex is known for quick drying, low smell, and excellent stain/mildew resistance. Go with reputable brands like Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, or Behr. Look for features such as easy cleaning, mold prevention, and stain blocking. Jackson Carter is here to support every decision to keep your kitchen looking its best.
