Providing they have the same base, you can.
Matt paint is also known as flat paint and silk is also known as satin or egg shell. When you mix equal parts of silk with matt the slight amount of sheen in the silk is obliterated and the batch becomes matt.
Yes, it is possible.
If indoors use emulsion Matt or silk depending on what finish you want.
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.
yes you can
its when you have a bit of silk and you have some sil paint and u start painting on the silk.
Yes you can.
I have two gallon of paint. Same brand name. one is egg shell the other is flat. can I mix the to together? ANSWER: As long as they are the same base, water or oil, you can mix them together. Realize though, that you will never be able to get touch up for the paint once it runs out unless you mix to a ratio that can be recreated.
In context, you may be able to use silk either with or without an 's'. For example:The dressmaker showed her client a rich mix of silks.The dressmaker showed her client a rich mix of silk fabrics.The collection of silk yarn displayed a rich mix of silks.
Dulux Matt elmotion
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.
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.
