Winsor & Newton Professional Acrylic Matt Medium, 250 ml, Reduces Gloss, Improves Flow, Clear Film, Suitable for Matt Texture

The product comes in a 250 ml bottle. It provides matte control to produce soft, non-reflective surfaces, enhances flow for smooth application, dries clear without milky residue, and aids interlayer adhesion for improved durability. It can be mixed with paints or used neat as a glaze.

Start by adding a small amount of matte medium to your acrylic color (about 5–20% by volume) and mix thoroughly until homogeneous. Adjust the ratio to achieve the desired level of matte finish and working time, then apply in thin, even coats.

Yes. You can glaze by applying a thin layer over dried paint to tone down sheen and create depth with a matte finish. You can also apply it neat as a glaze to achieve a completely matte look without color in the medium.

It’s suitable for common acrylic supports like canvas, canvas board, paper, and wood. It helps smooth handling and reduces brush marks, making it ideal for glazing, layering, and achieving a uniform matte surface across various textures.

Work in thin coats and maintain a consistent brushing direction. Use a soft brush or roller, keep the surface slightly damp with the medium, and avoid over-brushing to prevent drag marks. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next for an even finish.

Use it to create non-gloss glazes, to flatten the sheen on acrylic works, to extend acrylic paints for softer textures, or to glaze colors for a muted, uniform finish. It’s also useful for protecting delicate layers and creating subtle, matte surfaces on mixed-media projects.

This is a water-based, user-friendly acrylic medium with low odor. Use in a well-ventilated area, avoid ingestion, and keep out of reach of children. When finished, seal the bottle to prevent evaporation and wash hands after use.

Store upright in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed. Keep away from direct heat or ignition sources. Dispose of any waste according to local regulations for water-based paint products. Do not contaminate water sources with leftover medium.

Since it’s water-based, rinse brushes and tools with warm water and mild soap until clean. Wipe away any residue and reshape brush bristles before drying.

The medium dries clear and flexible, so colors remain true without a milky residue. It can slightly extend drying time depending on the amount used, especially in thicker applications or glazes, so build coats gradually for full cure.
