WILLOUGHBY’S  MATT CHINA PAINTS

What are Matt China Paints
Matt paints are paints without flux. The main difference is they do not shine or have gloss after firing.
When Matt paints are used in a very heavy manner, the paint will appear as velvet after firing, even on a glazed piece of chinaware.
This is called “Velvet Grounds“.  When Matt paints are used on glazed china, the shine will be less than when used on a
un-glazed piece.  The thicker the paint, the less the shine.   Generally, Matt paints are not used on glazed china wares, except for “Special effects”.
Matt paints are most often used on “BISQUE”.  The Matt paint will not have shine and will have the same smooth velvet look as does the bisque.

Most of Willoughby’s colors are inter mixable to achieve variations of color and shade.  However, it is always safe to test a mixture before using it on a valued piece.  The EXCEPTIONS to the rule are the colors belonging to the GOLD BASE and CADMIUM-SELENIUM BASE families.  Each family is inter mixable within the family of color.  The Gold Base family also mixes with most shades of blue.
