mixing vinyl matt with super matt

[jono44]

Hi,
can any one with trade experience tell me if i mix coloured trade vinyl matt with a little super matt (say 25/30%) white.

A) will i have problems the with the paint?
B) will the matt sheen still be relatively tough - ie for wiping etc ?

The reason is we want to lighten the colour a little and customer doesn't want to buy more paint.
I've already laid on a full coat of vinyl matt over a coat of thinned super matt on new plaster.

Thanks for any input.

Jono.
Plumber doing a little painting as part of a job.

I think you should tell your customer to purchase more paint.

I agree with theDec.

I have had problems with superMatt in the past and no longer use it. I would imagine that the cost of paint is relatively low compared to your labour costs.

They could always use the supermatt elsewhere
