I need to paint the bathroom but the walls are not particularly brilliant. I used B&Q's Everywhere/Everwhite Matt which is really good for disguising the unevenness but brilliant white is a bit stark.
Is there a matt paint range available for bathrooms?
Thanks, Ed.
Try an eggshell finish instead. This gives a slight sheen rather than a high sheen gloss, but isn't as flat as matt.
oil based undercoat mixed with half as much gloss gives good results in bathrooms, vary proportions to get the level of sheen you want. To colour it, add a _small_ amount of coloured gloss paint - much less than you expect.
Or just use emulsion.

Just use a mid-sheen which is the same as a bathroom paint.
Avoid Homebase's own brand bathroom and kitchen paint. I wish I had. Within no time it had discoloured and gone patchy.
