About This Project

This Dover home had extensive custom millwork — coffered ceiling beams, crown molding throughout, and built-in bookcases in the study — that needed to be painted to a hard, durable finish. We used Benjamin Moore Advance throughout for its self-leveling properties and hard cure.

What Made This Project Successful

Advance for millwork

Benjamin Moore Advance is our go-to for all trim and millwork. It levels beautifully, cures to a hard surface, and is highly washable — ideal for high-touch surfaces like built-ins and doors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best paint for trim and millwork?

We recommend Benjamin Moore Advance — a waterborne alkyd that levels like oil paint but cleans up with water. It cures to a hard, durable surface that holds up to cleaning and daily use.
