Dulux Different types of Matt Paints

[Invisible-Man]

Hi

I have just bought 10L tub of white Dulux Rich Matt paint from Costco's, but on this forum the professionals talk of white Dulux Trade Matt.

My question is, is there much of a difference, I noticed on the one that I have bought, 10% max dilution. I want to use this paint on new plaster also new coving but 10% dilution is not enough for mist coat!

Should I dis-regard the paint I have bought (can return unopened to Costco's, not a problem) and buy the 5L Trade version!

Many thanks[/u]

Take your Dulux Rich Matt back to Costco's. Do not use this stuff on new/bare surfaces. The bit about 10% dilution is about when the weather is too hot ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !. Go back and buy Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt or Supermatt.
