silk paint on 2 week old one coat plaster

Anonymous user 3 November 2014 - 12.22 PM

Hi, Please could I get some advice?? I had my kitchen walls plastered with one coat plaster about 4 weeks ago, so this week I painted them with a diluted white Matt emulsion, let that dry for a few days and then painted them with a medium sheen paint mixed with Matt paint. It seems to have all dried nicely and looks good but I have just been told by a friend that I should have only painted the walls in a white Matt paint for at least 6 months??Have I done the wrong thing or will this be ok?? Please help!!
