Does anyone have any recommendations for paint that can withstand being
washed now and then on a kitchen wall in the area that is often tiled
above a work surface? I don't like the look of tiles and would prefer to
keep it as a plain wall.

We opted for a toughened glass spashback - out supplier can offer any
colour (from the Dulux charts) and a range of metallic finishes. We had a
piece for the windowcill to match. Very pleased with it.

Household paints wouldnt be good there. Maybe some sort of 2 pack marine paint? Or ss, glass, formica etc.

you can wash many vinyl paints and emulsions. Just not too many times
before they wear through.

Repainted every few years works though...
