"I finished a bedroom in a couple of hour:, on? it dried completely while I ate lunch." "Not a single lap or brushmark." Crayon marks washed off perfectly." The secret of this gorgeous satin finish is its exclusive synthetic rubber emulsion base—a formula developed by Glidden. We’ve never han ded a paint that compared with Spred SATIN.
