I heard that the more satin it gets, the easier it is to clean. Sherwin Williams has even got a demo where they paint the surface and cleaned it with a rag and water with no issues.

However, I have also heard that satin paint will show out blemishes in the surface. What about with Knockdown texture? Will it hide the imperfections well?
