AD1750 Matting Agent

Carmix AD1750 Matting Agent is a premium, high-efficiency gloss-reduction additive developed specifically for professional vehicle refinishing within the ⁠Carmix Master Tinting System. Formulated as a highly stable fluid concentrate utilizing advanced wax-treated or specialized amorphous silica technology, this specialized tinter allows precise modification of the final surface texture to achieve a smooth matte, soft-satin, or true flat-low sheen finish on custom vehicle coatings, commercial fleets, and modern OEM matte factory paint jobs. Unlike traditional flatting pastes, AD1750 works by engineering a uniform, micro-rough surface structure that scatters and diffuses incident light rays rather than reflecting them uniformly, effectively cutting down specular gloss while remaining completely transparent to ensure that the underlying color depth, metallic brilliance, or pearlescent flake intensity stays completely clear and vivid without turning milky or foggy. This matting agent blends into the universal Carmix 993 solvent-borne binder systems, where it provides exceptional leveling control, resists skinning over time, and preserves the elastic durability, mar resistance, and UV stability of 2K polyurethane topcoats and high-solid clearcoats. When sprayed under standard workshop conditions, it avoids the common paint defect of patchy gloss variations or striping by maintaining optimal suspension performance, delivering a highly uniform, low-reflection finish that effectively conceals surface imperfections while shielding the vehicle panel from mechanical wear and chemical weathering. Unlike standard, untreated flatting agents that can leave a fragile or brittle film, the advanced wax encapsulation technology used in AD1750 acts as a structural reinforcing agent within the cross-linked polymer network.
