What are the disadvantages of higher sheen paints?
• They tend to highlight any surface imperfections, so more surface preparation (like patching, texturing or sanding) will usually be needed before painting. • They are harder to touch-up than lower sheen paints, because the higher sheen tends to highlight the slightly raised surface of the film where the touch-up was done. • They usually need to be sanded, de-glossed or primed prior to repainting, to ensure good adhesion of the new paint.
