    Dulux Trade Diamond vs Easycare kitchen

    We're getting a new kitchen & have chosen the colour. But, whats the difference between Dulux Trade Diamond Matt & Dulux Easycare Kitchen? We'd prefer to have a matt finish as the new cupboards and tiles are already slightly shiny. I've read the trade diamond can be used in the kitchen & is scrubbable, but does anyone have any experience with it in a kitchen? Also, we're having a wide glass splashback, so oil stains aren't a worry.
