A highly durable water-based emulsion paint that is resistant to common stains and is now 99.9% VOC free.
Dulux Trade Diamond Matt is a tough and cleanable emulsion with a smooth, uniform matt finish.
Perfect for busy environments, Diamond Matt contains a unique Stain Repellent Technology, preventing stains from setting in to the surface and making cleaning easier.
Highly scrubbable, it achieves Class 1 ISO 11998 and Type C BS 7719 scrub ratings. Tested up to 10 000 scrubs, it means walls withstand daily wear and tear and the finished job looks better for longer.
The formula is 99.9% VOC free, based on in-can VOC content and measured in accordance with ISO 11890-2:2013. It has also been independently tested for indoor emissions, including formaldehyde, TVOC, TSVOC and Cat 1A and 1B carcinogens.

Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease and powdery or dusty residues. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry. Seal surfaces that remain powdery after thorough preparation with an appropriate plaster sealer. Where necessary, rub down and the wipe off with a damp, lint free cloth to avoid dust. Any surface defects should be filled with the appropriate Polycell Trade Polyfilla. |
