Sponging - which paint for which surfaces?
Latex is ideal for sponging walls. In kitchens and bathrooms, where condensation and washability are a concern, I recommend kitchen and bath paint, or a semi-gloss latex.
For small items such as furniture, woodwork, pots etc, you can use latex or a premium alkyd (oil) paint.
