Composition
Dispersed pyrogenic silicia with acrylic polymer in
water
Properties
- used to obtain a matt effect with acrylic paints
and mediums. It contains no binders.
- dries to a matt, water-resoluble film
- lightfast and age resistand
Applications
- adding Lascaux Matting Agent gives acrylics a matt
appearance similar to that of gouache or tempera
colours
- likewise, acrylic colours can be prepared for
supplementing or retouching lime and casein
paintings at any stage
- the Matting Agent is only suitable for use with
water-based systems and for interior applications
Directions
Slowly add 20-30% Matting Agent to the relevant
products, stirring all the time. Depending on the
amount of the agent added, a certain loss of transparency
is unavoidable. Higher proportions of Matting
Agent will proportionaly reduce the binder content
thereby diminishing the waterproofness and scratch
resistance of the paint. The Matting Agent should
therefore only be used for interior work.

Physiologically and toxicologically safe in conventional
usage. USA: conforms to ASTM D-4236.
