The best paint for high humidity rooms in Nigeria (bathrooms, kitchens, laundry areas) must fight mould, wipe clean easily and not peel in steamy conditions. In 2026 the real choice is between anti-mould matte, eggshell and semi-gloss. Here’s a straight comparison.

Anti-Mould Matte

• Special mould inhibitors in the formula
• Prestige Timeless Anti-Mould Matte – best seller in Lagos & Abuja bathrooms
• Pros: hides imperfections, looks soft
• Cons: harder to wipe heavy grease

Eggshell / Satin

• Best everyday cleanability + good mould resistance
• Prestige Timeless Interior Eggshell – current favourite for kitchens
• Pros: wipes easily, slight sheen hides minor flaws
• Best rooms: kitchen walls, bathroom walls (not ceiling)

Semi-Gloss

• Maximum wipe-ability & moisture resistance
• Prestige Timeless Interior Semi-Gloss – ideal for wet zones & high-touch areas
• Pros: easiest to clean, very mould-resistant
• Cons: shows wall imperfections more → needs perfect prep
