Thanks Bill.
I did take note of the Winsor and Newton suggestion.
Can you tell me if applying it on top of dark colors will make them dusty or 
lighter?
So far, all the brands I've tried did this.

However, I have to pay the many many bills before I can buy anything, so I'm 
stuck with what I have on hand.
As soon as I get my next income, I'll sure go out and see if I can get a 
bottle of the matte from W&N. It is not the most popular paint around here 
(Montreal), so the mediums might not be available locally. I hope I'll find 
a store willing to order for me (been harder thes past couple years for 
custom orders).

Thanks
