Features of the Medium Matte Acrylic
This matte medium shines with versatile qualities that make it a must-have.
- When mixed with acrylic paints, it extends colors, increases flow, and reduces gloss without altering vibrancy, perfect for creating custom effects with minimal product.
- As a topcoat, it evens out finishes, eliminating shine for a uniform, sophisticated appearance that enhances details under any light.
- Designed with excellent protective properties, it shields artwork from environmental wear, preserving clarity under Nairobi’s bright sun.
- Non-toxic and safe for all ages, it’s ideal for artists, students, and hobbyists alike, offering flexibility with peace of mind.
- Drying in 20-30 minutes, it supports efficient workflows, allowing additional layers for thicker textures or smoother finishes, while its flexible coating resists cracking on canvas, wood, or other surfaces.
- This medium is perfect for acrylic paintings, mixed media, and crafts, making it a versatile tool for creators seeking refined results.
How to Use the Medium Matte Acrylic
Applying this matte medium is a simple yet powerful process.
For mixing, combine it with acrylic paint (1:1 or adjust to preference) in a palette to thin colors, enhance flow, or reduce gloss, then apply as usual with a brush or palette knife.
As a topcoat, start with a fully cured, clean artwork—acrylic paintings or mixed media work best—and wipe away dust for a smooth base.
Pour a small amount into a tray or use it directly from the bottle for control.
Use a wide, soft brush for broad areas, applying in even, overlapping strokes with the canvas flat to avoid runs; for detailed spots, a smaller brush ensures precision.
One coat delivers a subtle matte finish, but additional layers—waiting 20-30 minutes between each—build a smoother, more pronounced effect without shine.
Avoid over-brushing partially dry layers to maintain clarity.
Clean brushes with warm soapy water immediately after to keep them in top shape.
