Matting Additive Special Products A Matting Additive for use with 1-pack finishes and varnishes. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION A matting additive specially formulated for mixing with International one pack finishes and varnishes to produce a variety of gloss, satin or matt effect finishes. PRODUCT INFORMATION Colour Specific Gravity Volume Solids Typical Shelf Life Unit Size DRYING/OVERCOATING INFORMATION Drying Follow the surface preparation instructions shown on the label of the finish or varnish to which the Matting Additive is being added. Stir individual products prior to mixing. The level of gloss will decrease where the amount of Matting Additive is increased. The opacity of the chosen finish will be affected once the clear Matting Additive is added. Apply the standard finish first and finish off with the mixed (matted) material as a last coat, or apply multiple coats until full opacity is achieved. Stir well before use. Mixing GUIDELINES ARE AS FOLLOWS: Toplac: 25% addition of the Matting Additive by volume to achieve up to a 30% reduction in gloss 50% addition of the Matting Additive by volume to achieve up to a 80% reduction in gloss 75% addition of the Matting Additive by volume to achieve up to a 95% reduction in gloss For large areas, ensure full required volume of matted paint is mixed prior to commencing application. Matt appearance may vary with colour. Thinner YTA800 Thinners No.1 Thinning Matting Additive may be thinned by 5% prior to mixing with Topcoat or Varnish. Use Thinners No.1. Conventional Spray (Professional spray application only) Pressure: 34 bar. Tip Size: 1.11.4 mm. For spray application of matted 1pack varnishes or finishes, follow instructions on the datasheet for the product in question. Other The addition of Matting Additive to a finish or varnish will not affect the drying or overcoating characteristics of the product. It will not affect the durability of the finished surface. As with all the types of reducedgloss coatings, the resulting finish will not have the same stayclean properties as a fullgloss coating. If all the mixed (matted) material is not used it may be used at a later date. Simply stir well before use. Testing on a noncritical area should be carried out prior to fullscale application.
