Flat Latex Paint Flat latex paint has been selected for your home because it is the ideal paint to use in a new home. It covers extremely well and does not show the taping seams as an enamel paint does. As your home settles and materials become acclimated, it is normal to develop nail and screw pops, and some drywall seams may become visible. Flat latex paint was selected due to its ability to touch up extremely well when compared to an enamel.

CLEANING A SCUFF MARK ON THE WALL
ITEMS NEEDED: • Mild Liquid Detergent • Water • Clean Sponge
1. To assure durability benefits, wait at least two weeks before washing the dry paint film.Use solution of mild detergent and water to wash surface dirt and marks. 2. Thoroughly wet the sponge (DO NOT USE cotton rags, old shirts or abrasive cleansers, like Comet) and squeeze out the excess water. Leave enough soap and water in the sponge or washcloth to let the soap do the work. Dabbing at the dirt or mark and gently wiping will produce a more satisfactory effect than hard scrubbing. Hard scrubbing will result in a breakdown of the film, which may look worse than the original mark. 3. Allow the washed area to dry for 2 to 4 hours. 4. Walls may be touched up with the touch up paint that Pulte Homes provided, if the scuff cannot be removed by cleaning.
