Kitchen/Bathroom paint

[diy247]

Hello

I think I might have made yet another balls up...

I just bought 3 tins of crown kitchen paint in 'soft steel'. I've only put one coat (one tins)on so far and the colour is not right. I was expecting a grey, but it's lilac!!! Can I put a different colour matt emulsion (non kitchen stuff) straight over this ?

Regards

Bathroom paint is just a type of acrylic eggshell and all you need to do is lightly sand the surface before you apply your matt.

One point though if your kitchen or bathroom are in anyway subject to high humidity the matt may not be up to the job.

That's good news, thank you.
