Using Blakes deck paint to cover some bolt holes that I've filled, but although it's supposed to be semi-matt, it's still a bit too glossy for the surrounding deck. What's the best way of making this matt? I've tried some fine wet&dry paper after drying, but some additive or something like silica or talcum powder sprinkled onto the wet coating would be preferable. Ideas?
 
International do a matting agent, got a tin of it but never got around to using it. Make us an offer and we'll post a small pot out to you if you fancy.
