Matt paint is also known as flat paint and silk is also known as satin or egg shell. When you mix equal parts of silk with matt the slight amount of sheen in the silk is obliterated and the batch becomes matt.

How do you paint flat not latex over satin latex paint?

Yes, you can. The whole problem with flat paint over satin is the gloss sheen bleeding through the flat finish. I typically do one of two things for a customer when they have this situation: Either I just plan on two coats of the new paint, or I paint the walls with cheap flat white paint and then paint the top coat with the new paint. I prefer the latter, as I always have buckets of cheap flat white leftover, which saves some cash, as the top coat is usually about $30 per gallon.
