You have control

Dulling Agent (No.30) gives you control over the level of shine and allows you to tailor the finish to the needs of your job. Simply add a dash at a time and test after each adjustment. Apply a test spot in an inconspicuous area, dry it off and assess the result. As a guide, desired results are typically achieved with the addition of 5%-20% Dulling Agent.

Bring your coatings into alignment

Best results are achieved when your colourant has the same level of shine as your original finish and/or your chosen topcoat. 

Example 1:

Leather Hero Leather Paint has a satin finish. Your job requires a matte finish and you have purchased matte topcoat. You will add an amount of Dulling Agent (No.30) to your Leather Paint to produce a lower sheen paint that is in alignment with the level of shine in the matte topcoat. 

Example 2:

You have purchased gloss topcoat and have found that is has more shine than your project requires. You will add an amount of Dulling Agent (No.30) to reach the desired level of shine for your project.
