About this deal

Whilst the Optiva 5 is causing some headaches for Tikkurila, the same can’t be said about the Optiva 3. As of June 2021, it’s a big favourite amongst decorators due to the ceramic technology within the paint which makes it easy to wash. It’s very possible that respondents to our poll hadn’t used the latest iteration of the Optiva 5 so it’s tough to say if the Optiva 5 deserves its place on this list. We asked AS Decorating for some more specifics on whether they’ve noticed a change. Here’s what they had to say: Taking the 4th and 5th spots are Tikkurila 5 and Tikkurila 3 with the professionals seemingly at loggerheads as to which one is the best washable matt paint. Are your products safe? Our pens are safety compliant non toxic erasable whiteboard markers. We have test reports that meet the U.S. Canada, EU, UK and AUS/NZ safety standards. The silicone mats are FDA approved BPA free food grade silicone. We consult ACCC documents. How big are the mats? The standard mats measure 40 x 30cm and come with four pens in a coloured felt pouch.

Is Scribble Mat™ suitable for children under 3? Scribble Mat is ideal for children over the age of three as they can comfortably hold the pens and are usually out of the mouthing stage. Young children must always be supervised with pens due to the potential for choking on a pen lid.

It should go without saying but the clue is in the question. Washable matt is (obviously) washable which means it will typically be easier to clean than regular matt paints. But that’s not the only advantage it enjoys – washable matt paint tends to be better at resisting stains and grease too so that you don’t have to deal with them in the first place. Perhaps the best feature fo the Diamond Matt (apart from it being washable of course) is the smooth finish you can achieve. Due to the consistency, it’s very rare that you’d get any brush or roller marks, especially if you’re using decent equipment. Beyond the practicality of the paint, the Optiva 3 has a variety of stunning colours, especially with the current interior decor trends in 2021 (think dark blues and greens). Furthermore, the Optiva 3 has a dead flat finish (compared to the Optiva 5 which has a slight sheen to it) which is definitely “in” at the moment. Whilst professionals have loved the Optiva 5 over the last few years, in May 2021 Tikkurila recalled the Optiva 5 due to complaints from many in the trade. The general consensus as of June 2021 is that the Optiva 5 has lost a lot of its quality due to changing the formulation of the paint.

Optiva 3 is great paint. I’ve been using it solidly now for about 2 years and used Optiva 5 before that. It’s very durable too. Coming in second place is the Crown Clean Extreme scrubbable matt which is estimated to withstand up to 10,000 scrubs. In terms of durability, it doesn’t get much better than that.For all you mathematicians out there, you’ve probably realised that the percentage of votes doesn’t add up to 100. Of course, that’s because we’ve only included the top 5 paints that were voted for. There are some others that garnered a few votes which we’ve listed below along with some quotes from the professionals who chose them as their favourite. Armstead Durable (Mike Lucas) The information presented may include pricing or technical inaccuracies, may be incomplete, inaccurate or out of date, and may contain typographical or other errors. Fantastic – No Plastic takes no responsibility and will not be liable for such inaccuracies. I’m an Armstead man through and through and whilst the Armstead Durable is on the thin side which can affect the opacity, it goes on very nicely and is overall superb stuff. 2 or 3 coats usually covers dirty walls. Macpherson’s Acrylic Matt (Joe Hessey) At OfficeStationery we have a great selection of Desk Mats that are great for keeping your desk looking organised and stylish. We have these available in a range of styles, colours and materials which can add a surface to help protect your desk from scratches and marks. Desk mats also provide a pad of non-slip which can keep your papers from sliding around and getting jumbled or lost. Why are there limited pens? When we started we selected four main pen colours. The pens slot into the felt pouch with the mat making a complete portable product for storage and ease. More pens = more to lose, overwhelming for children, and less focus on the process of colouring. This way children can just colour without worrying about needing specific pens for the mat characters. Rainbow and stripy animals are fun!
