What is the difference Matt and silk paint?

The finishes. Silk, as the name suggests, is a high sheen finish and will often show up imperfections. Matt will cover everything flat as the name suggests. Either can be used in my opinion as a professional painter and decorator. I've just finished a house with silk walls and matt ceilings, and have often done matt walls and silk ceilings. If you're a beginning painter, I would advise using silk, as it's either to put on smoother with thick coats. If you're a beginner and using matt, use vinyl matt, not trade.

Most emulsions are water based, whether it be Matt or silk, so yes it will be OK. I found this out from a painter and decorator cause i had to do the same. If one is oil based and the other water based then it can't be done. Hope this helped.


How do you paint flat not latex over satin latex paint?

Yes, you can. The whole problem with flat paint over satin is the gloss sheen bleeding through the flat finish. I typically do one of two things for a customer when they have this situation: Either I just plan on two coats of the new paint, or I paint the walls with cheap flat white paint and then paint the top coat with the new paint. I prefer the latter, as I always have buckets of cheap flat white leftover, which saves some cash, as the top coat is usually about $30 per gallon.
