I have an Armory Prussian Blue that looks great on the pallette but on a black under coat figure it's just dark blue/black gloss. It's a little thick, what if I put in some brush-on matt medium for acrylics? Will I get Satin or something else? |

Try it on a small spot and find out????? Sorry, to be less snarky…. I'm not sure about the combo you have in mind, but Tamiya makes a flat that you add to their glossy paints that will make them flat. Martin Kelly has used it to other makers paints to make them dead flat as well. link |

I think you'll get a less glossy paint. |

Or you can put matte finish on top of it. |
