    Hi, i have just had my bedroom plastered, the bloke said 50 50. So going get 2.5l white matt emulsion to 2.5l water to do all walls and cieling.
    Then afterwards want to used the dulux baby blue. But what the difference between normal matt emulsion and endurance matt emulsion. Endurance is cheaper at the moment.

    Thanks

    It's a tougher version, plus you can wash off stains,& marks from it, whereas with ordinary matt, you take the paint off the wall washing it.
    According to Dulux facts, it's 20x tougher than standard Dulux Matt, & is Diamond Tough formulation.

    If you need a second coat allow a minimum of 5 hours between coats.

    Endurance is the Dulux retail version of Dulux Trade Diamond, both very good 'types' of emulsion paint.

    I found Armstead to be good for doing my mist coating.
