Terrydabassman Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I have a guy wanting 3 bombers made and painted with a Matte finish. I've refurbished a few lures that had this finish on them but I have no clue how to do it. Anybody here know how it's done? Thanks a bunch, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KcDano Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Paint jobbers used to carry a flattening agent for paint. Might be worth investigating further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximusgunn Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Not sure if this helps as I have never tried it, but Createx has a matte finish gloss you could try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jklett Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Did you try a scotch-brite pad? Might do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I'd Just tape the bill and sand the clearcoat with 400 or 600 grit paper. I wouldn't spend a ton of money/time/experimentation trying to find a matte clearcoat unless you'll be doing an awful lot of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
