Projector showen on wallboard (1 Viewer)

[TaylorC]

We are just starting to build a home theater. We will start by getting the projector. The screen will have to come later. Therefore, we will be showing it on the wall for awhile. Obviously, a white wall is the best. But, is there a particular paint brand, particular shade of white, particular sheen of paint that is better?
Thanks

Popular ones seem to be Behr "Ultra Pure White", Sherman Williams "Luminescent White". Look at these links for examples of cheap homemade screens also.

Also do a search in the screens forum, that ought to keep you busy for days. Good luck.
