FAQs

Can I use this paint in a kitchen?

Yes, Dulux Trade Diamond Matt is specifically designed for high-traffic areas, including kitchens, due to its scrub-resistant properties.

Can I return the paint if the color isn't right?

No, this product is mixed to order and is non-returnable and non-refundable.

Does it have a shiny finish?

No, it is a true matt finish designed to stay matt even after being wiped or scrubbed.

Is this suitable for ceilings?

While it can be used on ceilings, it is optimized for walls that require frequent cleaning.

How long does it take to dry?

It is typically touch dry in 1-2 hours and can be recoated after 4-6 hours under normal conditions.

Do I need a primer?

If painting onto bare plaster, a mist coat is recommended. For previously painted surfaces, ensure they are clean and sound; a primer is usually not necessary.

Troubleshooting

Visible roller marks after drying

Ensure you are using a high-quality synthetic roller and maintain a 'wet edge' while painting; do not over-work the paint once it begins to tack.

Paint not covering in one coat

Diamond Matt is high-opacity but often requires two coats for true depth of color, especially over darker existing colors.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and scrub-resistant
  • Maintains a consistent matt finish even after cleaning
  • Excellent coverage for busy interior areas
  • Resists scuffs and stains effectively

Cons

  • Non-refundable as it is mixed to order
  • Matt finish can sometimes show deeper scratches if impacted
  • Requires proper surface preparation for best results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure the walls are free of dust, grease, and loose paint. If painting over bare plaster, use a mist coat (a diluted mixture of paint and water) to seal the surface first. Use a good quality brush for cutting in and a medium-pile synthetic roller for large wall areas to achieve the best texture. Clean equipment immediately with warm water after use. To care for the finished surface, use a soft cloth with mild detergent for cleaning; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges to preserve the integrity of the paint film.
