Golden SoFlat Acrylics: The Artist’s Dream for Matte, Smooth Coverage
Part One Of My Five Part Series - My Top Five Art Supplies
You know Golden Acrylic Paints have been around - they’re a leader in the acrylic paint field. So it should come as no surprise that Golden SoFlat blows the other matte acrylics out of the water. Read on for my in-depth review of this amazing paint. After all, I’ve only been a painter for forty years… I may just know a thing or two (wink).
The rich pigmentation and flawless matte finish of SoFlat make it my absolute favorite paint. It goes down with a smooth, even application without brush strokes.
The flat, non-reflective surface make this paint ideal for artists looking for a velvety finish and a glare-free surface.
High pigment load means most of the colors cover in one coat. A real plus, and a time saver!
Unlike some other matte acrylics, SoFlat maintains a consistent appearance across different pigments. A real game changer!
You can write on it! Try that on regular acrylics.
It’s great for bold, flat areas of color.
Superior when taping off areas for a clean edge.
When it comes to varnishing, it’s best to use an isolation coat (soft gel gloss) and then use a matte varnish. These two in combination will give the best results and closest to the original color. As always, test first! Make a small sample painting using the colors in your original and test the isolation coat and varnish.
