What are the challenges of achieving matte finishes on resin figurative surfaces?
Achieving a flawless matte finish on resin figurative surfaces presents several unique challenges. First, resin's smooth, non-porous nature makes paint adhesion difficult, often requiring thorough sanding or priming. Second, uneven texture or tiny imperfections in the resin cast can become more visible under matte coatings. Third, matte paints tend to highlight surface flaws, demanding meticulous preparation. Additionally, achieving consistent color and sheen across complex shapes requires advanced techniques. Finally, environmental factors like humidity can affect drying times and finish quality. Mastering these challenges involves careful material selection, proper surface prep, and controlled application methods.
