Have you thought about using Diamond Matt? It's ten times tougher than silk emulsions with a fashionable Matt finish.

To get a quality finish always use Polycell Trade predecorative products, like Polyfilla Interior Filler, to get rid of those unwanted cracks before painting.

If you need a paint to use in a high condensation area, such as a bathroom or kitchen and still want a mid sheen finish then use Diamond Eggshell.
