I didn't think about paint hardener!
I think you'll get the most bang for your buck from putting the diffusers at the first reflection point, those first reflections rob the image of depth since the ear determines the size of the space by comparing the arrival time of the direct sound and the first reflection sound.
Corner diffusers would probably be second, in that case you have a second reflection off the front wall to the side wall and to your ears. That's also an early arrival. You can use a couple of mirrors to determine where you want to put the diffusers. Putting them over bass traps might work but only if the reflection is in the same place.
Diffusion also helps elsewhere in the room, it can break up slap echo and also it's often used on the rear wall to provide a nice sense of ambiance and also increase the apparent size of the space.
