Thread: do you wax matte black paint? You can use Ultimate Quik Wax if you spray it onto a microfiber towel rather than directly onto the paint itself. It will keep a nice sheen to the finish but it won't turn matte paint to gloss. You can also use Ultimate Quik Detailer if you prefer.

Thread: Matte Paint Finish Protection / Waxing ? There are waxes that produce less gloss than others. NXT Wax is the most glossy, and I get lots of gloss with Gold Class Wax. Perhaps you can try Meguiar's Color-X Wax or Meguiar's Deep Crystal Cleaner Wax. I have used Color-X, and the gloss and depth arent very high, so that might be what you want for a matte finish.

- Rule number one when applying dark wax and wanting just a mild antiquing/aged effect-especially over a light colored Chalk Paint™, like Old White or Louis Blue, you should apply a layer of Clear Wax first. Let the clear wax dry first.

- It is a personal choice and sometimes can depend on what is being printed. The Glossy option is perfect for detailed/technical prints or photograph images. However, please note that glossy prints cannot be framed due to the fact that the print sticks to the glass. The Matte finish offers a flat, texturized finish with little to no glare. Some find this finish is better for paintings and darker prints although it works for any type of image. The Lustre is wonderful for both, capturing the best qualities from Glossy and Matte and combining them into one beautiful finish. Please note, the Lustre finish has more saturated inks which can sometimes result in a darker image.

- Why is it different: The transfer-proof matte powder is formulated to stay on the scalp and eliminates the tell-tale shiny spots of an exposed scalp. The specially designed brush, a true hairdresser's tool, allows you to part your hair with one end and apply the powder with the other. How do I use it: Dab the brush in the powder, create a part using the pointy end of the brush, and apply the powder along the scalp from back to front.

- Wax will get you some abrasion protection, but little else. One thing I learned about durability after 20 years making paint: beading off of a car hood or wood looks nice, but that effect gains you no durability. Products that promote water beading really have no benefit.

Offwhite doors look very classy, when painted a perfect highgloss. It's also the most durable kind of paint, and easy to clean.n general, a paint color will be a bit darker when it's in high-gloss. But, as you can see on the above picture: when the light shines on glossy paint, the color is hidden behind the shiny light effects, which will move as you walk past it.

What Is Satin Paint? What Is Satin Paint? Satin paint is neither glossy nor completely flat or matte -- it's a mid-range choice between the two. While it is durable and washable, it may not be the best option for high-moisture areas such as the bathroom, or in the kitchen where cooking grease is a concern. Satin refers to the level of shininess or sheen of the paint, particularly when it comes to interior paints such as latex wall paint.

How To Choose Exterior Paint Choose between flat/matte, glossy and satin finishes. Flat/matte finish: A flat finish hides imperfections better than a glossier finish but doesn’t clean as well. Flat finishes are generally used for siding. Glossy finish: Glossy paint creates a hard, shiny, durable finish that is easy to clean.

- I won't wax a fresh paint job until after I polish it. I won't polish until I can rub a hidden spot with polish and get NO paint transfer on a clean cloth. I won't do the polish step until I test a hidden area with a stiff plastic spatula for hardness. The spatula should not leave a mark IN the paint but should transfer plastic to the hardened painted surface (any mark in the paint can be removed when you do the polishing stage). I usually figure a minimum of three weeks but that's here in Tucson in the summertime with the car kept in the shade.

Paint sheen High-gloss finish used for kitchen elements. In paint technology, gloss and matte are levels of glossiness of a finish. Glossy paints are shiny and reflect most light in the specular (mirror-like) direction, while on matte paints most of the light diffuses in a range of angles. The gloss level of paint can also affect its apparent colour.

Thread: do you wax matte black paint? It has a matte black wrap. I think he said they use NXT 2.0 wax because it doesn't make the surface shiny, but adds some protection. My point is not so much the exact product they use-- you have to verify that with Meguiars-- but rather that they have a wax product you can use on a matter finish that won't ruin it.
