SW's ProClassic vs. BM's Advance
Things to know:
1. I'm using Olympic's High Gloss Enamel in off-the-shelf white for crown and the board and batten between cupboards. This paint is not a glossy as I expected, but still has a bit more sheen than I'd want on the cupboards and the board and batten area.
2. The bottom cupboards will be painted in SW's All Surface Enamel (latex, satin finish) because it was the only one that could be stained the dark color (SW - Iron Ore) I was going for on the bottom.
3. The bulk of my cabinetry is opposite two full length windows, so sheen is important. I would like the durability of a higher sheen without the gloss of one, otherwise I'll need to wear sunglasses in my kitchen during the day.
Any recommendations?

Starting this journey myself, not enough money in the budget to gut and replace the cabinets or to pay a pro. Attempting to use milk paint, first pass looking good, but getting great advice here for baths. My first DYI and it is scary.
