What it is and what it does. Matte paste is the additive used to turn a gloss lacquer into a satin or matt finish, by creating a controlled micro-roughness in the film.
- White to off-white thick paste; dispersed into the lacquer under stirring.
- The matt level depends on the dose, so a master sample is essential for repeatability.
- Settles on standing, which is why the paste must be re-dispersed before use and the lacquer stirred before coating.
