Egg Shell paint is what we have in our home. Eleven years and counting. To touch up any paints you very lightly thin the paint and remember two thin coats are better than one thick one. I think you should move in and live in your home awhile before choosing colors. I have been using Sherwin Williams Paint for over 50 yrs. Len
