Grace’s two new premium matting agents SYLOID ® AQ 800 silica and SYLOID ® AQ 880

silica were especially designed for eco-friendly systems in water-based wood coatings and

specifically developed to ensure an extremely low-gloss finish, which put an end to the

typical water spots and stains that have plagued wood coatings manufacturers. They have

been designed to offer superior matting properties with outstanding chemical resistance and

clarity and are simple to use, thanks to the low dusting properties and easier dispersibility

which translates to shorter cycle times and potential cost savings.
