Matte paint should really only be used on low-traffic areas in your home. Semi-gloss should be used in bathrooms, kitchens or high traffic areas where you are going to want to wash down the walls.

I don't like matte paint because when my walls get a skuff on them, I can't wipe it off without taking off the paint. On the other hand, when there is a skuff on the semi-gloss walls, it comes right off and the paint stays on.
