Hi there.. found you looking for a way to take the shine off my kitchen backsplash caulking... please tell me this will work, the shine around my beautiful backspkash is driving me cray cray!
i want to put chrome lacquer or gold wax over silicone. but those won't stick to silicone well... what could be the solution to that? I have been serching a lot but no luck..
@@brickintheyard Does this wash off with water? and if it does does it go back to being shiny again? i see the SAM Silicone Finishing Powder is sold out EVERYWHERE, so this would be a nice Alternative if it does work?
Hi ! I have a question- what about the opposite- are there any tricks or tips to make silicone shiny and "wet looking " again- in the event of my bloody, gory paintjob becoming matted out ? (I believe KY jelly is one?) Thanks my friend!
Question. If I matte something with this and later decide to paint it a little more, can I paint over it with pigmented platinum silicone? Or peel it off? Or are you rendering it unpaintable once you use this?
At 5:30-ish, you say to wait until you’re done painting, but I mean… How do I explain what I mean… Is it possible to make it so it CAN be painted again, once this is applied? A way to remove the gel? Or do I just need to be super sure? Sorry if that still isn’t clear enough-it’s 2am, haha. (Also, if I apply this stuff over a doll someone else painted with something like heat-set genesis paints (which seem to rub off over time), will it lock those pigments in or will those still rub off, and now the doll is also unpaintable?)
@@brickintheyard Okay, so I’ll try to be extra careful to only apply it when I’m sure I’ve finished. Or maybe I’ll do a few tiny tests to see what’s doable. Anyway, if it works for what I’m working on, I’ll be back to buy a lot more 😂 I’ve been struggling with matting because I don’t have a well ventilated space for it that I can access in the current weather. Using a space heater out there blows a fuse, haha.

Did you try this matting gel for your backsplash caulk? Did you like results?

Is it better then the old powdered sugar hack?
Just a different way, mainly for silicone makeups. Gel = no dust.

KY can be used as an onset remedy, but some fresh silicone applied will definitely bring back the gloss!
@@brickintheyard thanks!

I have not tried to paint over the Matting Gel, but I don't think that would work.

would we still have to use powder after this?
No. This is used instead of powder.
So when I’m done painting the silicone doll do I seal it? Then use the matting gel?
I don't know your painting process, but the matting Gel (and any other matting procedure) should be the last step.
Does it ever wear off? Does it feel dry to the touch?
It dries and feels like silicone.
Will this ever wear off? Is it permanent if I use this instead of matting powder on a silicone baby?
I have not seen it wear off yet.
Can’t you use from smooth on NOVOCS matte instead the matting gel? Take the shine right away when silicone is cured.
This is an option with no solvent that can be applied to skin if necessary. Very simple and fast.
About novelty is this body safe i guess yes since it use in makeup
This was originally formulated for makeup applications on the face. How that translates to other areas of the body is above my pay grade!
