        "text": "The best paint finishes for bathrooms are satin, semi-gloss, or specialized mold-resistant matte paints. High-moisture areas require a finish that resists water absorption and cleans easily. Semi-gloss offers maximum moisture and wipe resistance, making it ideal for walls near showers or high-use powder rooms. Satin provides a softer, less reflective sheen while still tolerating humidity well. Standard flat or eggshell paints tend to trap moisture and can foster mildew growth unless formulated specifically with antimicrobial additives. If your bathroom has limited ventilation, a higher sheen like semi-gloss is usually the most durable choice.",
