Washable paint recommendation.

My walls are grim! Years of sticky fingers, blw food flinging and general knocks, scrapes etc.
I'm looking for recommendations for a durable, washable paint.
Is Wilko's durable matt paint any good?

Valspar Premium.

Dulux Trade Diamond. I once witnessed an idiot at an event deliberately throw red wine all over the white matt walls in a Grade I listed venue Shock . Immediately called the cleaning and maintenance team in and fully expected to have to grovel to management and end up on the receiving end of a large redecorating bill. Maintenance just shrugged and said it'd be fine. Next morning there wasn't even so much as a mark.

Of the back of that I recommended it to my parents when they had a kitchen extension built about 3 years ago now and it still looks pristine. Unlike their utility which was painted 6 months ago in something else.

I used Dulux Endurance in our kitchen - great product!

Another vote for Dulux diamond trade
We have it in a few rooms in our house and it is invincible
We've scrubbed all sorts off it and it's still as good as new

My decorator told me that Dulux trade Diamond is the same as Dulux Endurance. First is from the Trade outlets, the second is the B&Q, Homebase etcs.
I used to have Farrow and Ball, and he heaved a sigh of relief when I said Dulux this time.
I have Dulux Diamond now and wouldn't have anything else.
