Can you spray this over a semi gloss spray paint finish and get a totally matte appearance?

Hi Jenny. I wish I could give you a positive answer but there are so many variables when spraying over a painted surface. The best I can offer is that I feel pretty confident that it would work (but no guarantee). My suggestion would be to spray several coats of the spray and it should certainly dull the surface. The product dries quickly, usually within a few minutes so you can respray without too much waiting. Best regards, Harve E.

I would likely use Minwax or polyurethane, both in the paint dept. of Home Depot, or could get through Amazon. Polyurethane will give you a higher gloss finish.Why I used this >> was to stain kitchen and bath cabinets darker that were '80's oak'. I then used this topcoat over the base gel stain.

I would not say high gloss, no. After you buff it it gets a little glossy, but not like a high gloss paint would look.

There is a bit of over spray but you get a better finish with less. I primarily use it for painting furniture but I would highly recommend this sprayer.

Yes, It will give it a nice looking high gloss look. It is a thin film product, so don't overapply it. Better to do 2 thin coats. Make sure any dirt or loose or chipped paint is first removed or touched up.

Yes, you can, which is what I got it for. However, the finish is a glossy one, and not the black matte, as advertised. Also, it's not the most comfortable fit. Caveat emptor.

I did use this product once to prep a wall for wallcovering. The paint was semi-gloss, so wallcovering wouldn't have adhered well otherwise. Never had a problem.

Definately, that's the only type paint I've used it for so far. I used the gloss finish and it turned out like a fine grand piano finish! I was in a hurry to get it done so I didn't take the time to do much adjustment to the amount of paint it was spraying, just tested it on a large piece of cardboard and it was O.K. but a bit heavy. I went ahead and used it that way and it worked fine but I used a lot of paint, in fact I ran out of the quart I had bought for my small chain link fence project and bought another quart. I now have a grand piano finish on a chain link fence, kind of overkill for the first project with this paint sprayer. I will attempt to paint a house next so I will definately try to adjust the paint volume I spray for that and not overdo it and be wasteful.

My wife works with polymer clay. Gloss gives depth and extra dimension to the projects. It also enhances metallic clays, such as gold and silver. She would never use satin or semi-gloss over metallics, because all they do is to dull the shine. Satin and semi-gloss are great for projects where a rough, unpolished, or "natural" look is desired, such as Steampunk projects. Hope this helps and best of luck with your creations!

No, it's completely matte with a very very slight texture. You'd have to get a sealant to make it shiny.

I would think only if you use a regular spray paint that has sealant in it or just use foam tape or caulking.

I would say yes ! The application seems to be semi-gloss when applied just FYI. I am not sure of your finish thats why I am letting you know. From my experience you could put this stuff pretty much on anything with great results. Another individual below say adhesive strips seem to be better which I am not suprised. This product can not and should not be compared to strips. It does provide a degree of traction which I felt was sufficient for my needs..Good luck !!

I have used it with acrylic lacquer paint, I do not foresee any issue with adding a matting agent to the base paint.

I would not apply it over paint. I strongly doubt that it would adhere well and would not be maintainable. I would suggest maintaining the surface with the original paint instead.

I personally have never tried that but I have seen this product - Resin Craft Surface Coat Spray - Fast drying, clear gloss finish/sealer. Ideal for fixing small blemishes in cured resin pieces. I would be interested to see if that works. It is from Environmental Technology.

I wouldn't use it as a gloss, too only. For dry ends, I use a dime size amount and pull it through my ends. It's A 10 Miracle Shine Spray is a great product for some /gloss.

I sprayed it on a 10' box truck whose sides are made of fiberglass and it adhered just fine, it does have a matte finish so if you sigh is glossy it may dull it down some.
