Product Information

Full details

Dulux Trade Diamond Matt Paint in Pink is designed for homeowners and professional decorators looking for a durable, high-performance finish in busy, high-traffic areas. The key benefit is its exceptional scuff and stain resistance, which allows walls to remain pristine despite frequent cleaning; however, users should note that because it is mixed to order, color matching for future touch-ups may require precise batch tracking.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in a bathroom?

While it is durable, it is primarily designed for general high-traffic areas. For rooms with high humidity and condensation, a dedicated kitchen or bathroom paint is recommended.

Is this paint scrubbable?

Yes, it is designed to be highly resistant to cleaning, but you should always use soft materials to avoid abrading the finish.

How many coats do I need?

Typically, two coats are sufficient for a solid finish, though dark colors or porous surfaces may require an additional coat.

What is the drying time?

Touch dry in 1-2 hours and recoatable after 4-6 hours under normal conditions.

Can I use this over oil-based paint?

Yes, provided the surface is thoroughly sanded to provide a key and cleaned of all dust before application.

Why is it labeled 'mixed to order'?

This ensures the specific pink shade is created for your order, maintaining high quality but preventing the product from being returned or exchanged.

Troubleshooting

Paint showing uneven texture or 'flashing'

Ensure the surface was properly primed and the paint was applied with consistent pressure; avoid over-working the paint once it begins to dry.

Difficulty cleaning off stubborn stains

Use a damp sponge with a very mild soap solution; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scouring pads that can damage the paint finish.

Color appears different than expected

Always apply a small test patch in the room to observe how the color interacts with your specific natural and artificial lighting throughout the day.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable finish suitable for high-traffic zones
  • Sophisticated matt appearance that minimizes surface glare
  • Wipeable and cleanable without sacrificing paint integrity
  • Excellent opacity for reduced coat requirements

Cons

  • Mixed to order, meaning exact color consistency can vary slightly between orders
  • Higher price point compared to standard emulsions
  • Requires proper surface preparation for best adhesion

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start by cleaning the surface thoroughly to remove dust, grease, and loose material. If painting onto bare or porous surfaces, use an appropriate primer or a mist coat of the paint itself thinned with a small amount of water. Apply using a high-quality synthetic brush or a medium-pile roller for a professional finish. Avoid over-spreading the paint to maintain film thickness. For maintenance, simply use a soft cloth or sponge with mild, non-abrasive detergent for cleaning. Always keep the paint tin sealed in a cool, dry place away from frost to preserve its shelf life.
