Preparing Epoxy Resin for Matte Finish

Before applying a matte finish to the RESINPRO glossy resin, it is essential to properly prepare the surface. Thoroughly clean the resin with a mild detergent to remove any grease or dust residues. Subsequently, lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to promote adhesion of the matte finish. Ensure the resin is completely dry before proceeding with the matte finish application.

Applying Matte Finish on Epoxy Resin

Once the surface is prepared, you can proceed with applying the matte finish. Thoroughly mix the product to ensure a consistent texture. Use a soft brush to apply the matte finish in thin, even layers on the resin. Allow each layer to dry completely to achieve optimal results. It is recommended to apply at least two or three coats of matte finish for full and uniform coverage.

Tips for Achieving a Perfect Matte Finish

To achieve a perfect matte finish on the resin, it is important to work in a clean and well-ventilated environment to avoid the formation of air bubbles or dust on the surface. Additionally, avoid touching the resin during the matte finish drying process to prevent imperfections. If necessary, you can use a mask and protective gloves to safeguard your health during product application.

Care and Maintenance of Matte Epoxy Resin

Once the matte finish application is complete, it is important to pay attention to the care and maintenance of the surface. Avoid using aggressive or abrasive chemicals to clean the matte resin as they could damage it. Regularly clean it with a soft cloth and lukewarm water to preserve the matte finish over time. Furthermore, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent any color alterations.
