Paint & Finishes

Matt Finish

"A non-reflective paint finish with very low sheen. The standard interior finish in the UK, and common on exterior masonry where a flat, chalky look is desired."

In detail

Matt emulsion hides surface imperfections well but is less washable than silk or eggshell. Exterior matt masonry paint is durable despite the low sheen, thanks to modern acrylic binders.
