What is "latex paint"?
Latex paint is a type of water-based paint made with artificial materials. It is known for being quick-drying and easy to clean with just water. Latex paint is commonly used for both interior and exterior walls because it provides a durable, flexible finish that resists fading and cracking. It comes in a range of finishes, from matte to glossy, and is preferred for its low odor and environmental friendliness compared to oil-based paints.
