Mixing Details - Typical Gloss Reduction using Flattening Agent YMA715
Parts Finish or Varnish : Parts Flattening Agent : Gloss Range
3 : 1 : High Semi-Gloss
1 : 1 : Semi-Gloss
1 : 2 : Low Semi-Gloss
1 : 3 : Flat
NOTE: Test applications are recommended before proceeding. The actual levels of Flattening Agent for 1-Part Finishes required may vary somewhat from color to color. It should also be noted that the exact gloss level achieved will vary slightly with film build applied. If sprayed slightly dry and with thin coats, the gloss will be less than for more heavily applied wet coats.
Stir individual products prior to mixing. Pour required quantities of Flattening Agent YMA715 and finish into a separate container and stir well before use.
Thinner: Special Thinner 216.
Thinning: Thin 5% with Special Thinner 216 if required.
Conventional Spray: For spray application of flattened varnishes or finishes, follow instructions on the datasheet for the product in question.
The addition of Flattening Agent YMA715 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 reduced-gloss coatings, the resulting finish will not have the same stay-clean properties as a full-gloss coating. If all the mixed (matted) material is not used it may be used at a later date. Simply stir well before use.
The level of gloss will decrease where the amount of Flattening Agent YMA715 is increased. The opacity (ability to hide) of the chosen finish will be affected once the clear Flattening Agent YMA715 is added. For better hide apply the unflattened finish first and finish off with the mixed (flattened) material as a last coat, or apply the unflattened finish until opacity is achieved. Stir well before use. If all of the mixed material is not used it may be saved and used at a later date.
