Why is it after I paint (using satin finish) that if I wipe off handprints that it leaves it glossy in that area?

Peace Painting Co., Inc. on Feb 28, 2012Either it's a soapy chemical that you used while cleaning that was left on the surface or, most likely, you have polished the paint smooth and made it more shiny by rubbing too hard. This could be avoided in the future by using a top-line paint that cleans easier or doesn't mark as easily. 'Aura' by Bennie Moore or 'Duration Home' by Sher-Wms. are good ones.

3po3 on Feb 29, 2012Could be residue on the sponge. Do you get the same thing with paper towels?Helpful Reply
