Summary: Washable paint is a blessing for interior paint maintenance. Buy ceramic paint, now in a water base wall paint. This interior wall paint is very easy to keep clean. Washable wall paint is, however, not always easy to find. Check some manufacturers here.

Ceramic Washable Wall Paint

I can usually tell when a particular column subject is popular. The Saturday after the column first appears I tend to get lots of phone calls to my radio show. I received many calls about this new ceramic wall paint. In fact, I was overloaded with calls!

To the best of my knowledge there are only two paint companies that make water based wall paints that are extremely washable. They use similar technology. The trick is to shrink the size of resin and extended pigment particles. One company uses ultra small ceramic particles and the other one uses very tiny resin beads to accomplish the same final result. The bottom line is that the film of paint has a very tight structure and few places for stain particles to grab on to.

The trouble with smaller paint companies is that they sometimes struggle to get full nationwide distribution. It is a daunting task to try to get a product into every paint store in the USA. It can take decades and tens of millions of dollars.


Have you picked out the paint color but don't have time to paint? Find the professional painters by using my Interior Painting & Staining Checklist. I offer a 100% Money Back Guarantee.

The two paint manufacturers that I found are:

Graham Paint Company
Ask for Aqua Borne Ceramic for Interior or Exterior. Graham uses the tiny ceramic micro-spheres in their paint.

Muralo Company
Ask for their Ultra line of paints for both interior and exterior. Muralo uses ultra small resin particles to achieve superior washability.
