Interior Walls and Ceilings
Pick up your paintbrush, Modern Emulsion is now available in 750ml tins for Carte Blanche colours.
Finding the perfect paint for your walls and ceilings couldn’t be easier. We have stain-resistant, mould-protected Modern Emulsion for kitchens and bathrooms, ultra-matte, scuff-resistant Dead Flat for hallways, living rooms and more, or softer Estate Emulsion for our original chalky look.
For an ultra-matte, durable finish, we recommend:

Dead Flat
Dead Flat is our multi-surface, ultra-matte finish with added toughness. Suitable for walls, woodwork and metal, it’s ideal for colour drenching. The flat matte look creates richer colour from every angle, while the washable, scuff-resistant finish is more than a match for mess — perfect for hallways, playrooms and other high-traffic areas.
