  • We took samples from F&B, Lick and Valspar to get matched at the local Dulux centre with their Diamond Matt and have been really impressed so far. It's only marginally cheaper than F&B I think, but went on really well and is hard wearing and 'scrubbable'. We stupidly painted before having plaster coving fitted and for the most part, were able to clean away all the crap that left behind without having to do any touch ups.

    With rollers, I wish I had realised at the start of our decorating just how much better even the cheap Dulux branded cages and sleeves they sell at the decorator centre are than whatever you can get from B&Q/Wickes/etc.

    Not a paid ad for Dulux.

  • Is diamond Matt a finish or a paint product (think I may do the matched thing)

    Scrubbable as in soap and water for marks?

  • I've only scrubbed the white dulux kitchen stuff so Idk what colours are like, but I used a scourer and cleaner.

    Although tbf that's on a stool I painted.

    Also Life-hack tip: a decent quality rubber (pencil eraser) can often remove marks.

  • It's their premium trade paint (but is available to non-trade also).

    And yeah exactly, can wipe marks away with a damp cloth without taking the paint off with it.
