Dulux bathroom paint or dulux trade diamond matt for bathroom?
Hi all,
I normally use Dulux Trade paint on all my "regular" walls/rooms, and it goes the furthest and gives the best finish.
Dulux Trade don't have a specific bathroom paint, the have their "Diamond Matt" range which can be used for bathrooms. Can anyone advise if this would be the better option to paint my bathroom, or go with regular Dulux Bathroom?
I'm looking fore a light grey paint for the walls and a white ceiling, if that makes any difference?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Diamond Paint can be very expensive and is not the easiest paint to get on with. I personally would only use a Trade paint like soft sheen or even v-matt is washable. any of the mould resistant's paint would be ideal. but this is only my personal choice, and I have never had any come backs on my work.
