Not a substitute for "Preserve It"
I can't find Krylon "Preserve It" anywhere. I guess they don't make it anymore. I tried "Matte Finish" as a substitute to coast my ink jet printed photos. It damaged them - blotches and fades. Be careful if you're looking for a matte photo coating like Preserve It.

Matte Finish sprays White paint like finish on 3rd coat
I have used Matte Finish spray for years on my Acrylic painting projects. I thought I got a defective can of spray or maybe it was too old, so I bought a new can of this at the local Hobby Lobby. I sprayed two coats of varnish and today went to spray the 3rd coat and it looked fine then within a few seconds turned white... like white paint white! I ruined my painted frame (see light white sploches on top and pure white on side) and a christmas ornament that will have to repaint. see the hat was black and the cardboard below the ornament turned white too. I just could not believe it!

Cloudy White coat
I sprayed this on a wood plaque that was painted gold and black, the black has a white cloudy film on it. I do not recommend this product at all.

Beyond expectations
Got Krylon Matte Clear to put protective coats on synthetic firearms stocks that I Camoflaged w/ flat base coat followed by sponge painted patterns. Put on 4 coats clear 1 minute apart holding can 14 to 16 inches from firearms. Came out PERFECT! No shine or reflections at all.

Even distribution and enhanced color
I purchased the krylon matt finish because the store was out of the brand I usually use on my oil landscapes. To my surprise, the krylon varnish went on more evenly and the colors were slightly enhanced. Very pleased!

This product gives the opposite features it claims
Your NONYELLOWING Matte finish has made all my white snow owls YELLOW soooo disgusted.
Only gave one star rating because there is no minus zero!

Cloudy finish
Unfortunately, I didn't read the ratings before using the matte finish on two painted terracotta pots. There was an uneven layer of cloudiness that was added, which ruined the work put into it. The description on the spray container clearly states, it "dries fast and clear", which is the furthest from the truth. I highly recommend that either the description is changed or the project is removed from the market.

Works Great
I use this for clear coating firearms that I have spray painted camo patterns on. It does a great job. Have realistic sxpectations though. This is a crafting level clear coar.
