How to Use COSMOS Matte Lacquer Spray Paint

For a flawless matte finish, proper preparation is key:

1. Preparation: The surface must be clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, and grease. Sand smooth surfaces lightly with fine sandpaper for better adhesion. Ensure your surface prep is perfect for a matte finish.
2. Mixing: Shake the can vigorously for at least 1 minute after you hear the mixing ball rattling.
3. Application: Hold the can 25–30 cm from the surface. Apply in several thin, light coats, moving across the surface in smooth, sweeping motions. Apply the next coat after 5 minutes. Master the aerosol shaking technique.
4. Finishing: Do not buff or apply wax, as this will introduce shine and ruin the matte effect.
5. Cleaning the Valve: After use, turn the aerosol can upside down and press the nozzle for 3 seconds to clear the valve and prevent clogging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use this over a high-gloss paint?
A: Yes, but you must first sand the glossy surface lightly with 320-grit sandpaper to create a profile (tooth) for the matte lacquer to adhere to.

Q: Is this product durable enough for tabletops?
A: It provides good durability for indoor furniture. For heavy-use areas like tabletops, a more industrial-grade, two-component PU coating is generally recommended, although this spray provides a great aesthetic finish.

Q: What is the main difference between lacquer and enamel spray?
A: Lacquer is typically solvent-based, quick-drying, and creates a hard film by solvent evaporation. Enamel dries slower, often forming a tougher, chemical-resistant film through curing, resulting in higher gloss (though matte enamels exist).
