Mural paint

So you have an idea about what you want to paint on your wall but what kind of paint should you use?
You can use your regular interior house paint but that depends on what type of image you are intending.
If it's a abstract shape or group of shapes and lines, then use a similar paint with the same sheen as the walls.
If you are painting a mural which has perspective and several planes (see art info) then I generally use a flat paint and protect the painting later with a flat glaze.(Stays Clear)
Cloverdale Paints has access to scenic paint, which is used in the film industry. This dries flat and comes in 4 liter containers. It is the best way to paint large area's which need lots of paint.
