inkAID White Matte is a porous, opaque, white ground for use on a multitude of surfaces. As a porous ink-jet coating, it allows prints to dry extremely rapidly, making it an ideal starting point for the first-time user looking for the most trouble free application on a wide range of materials.


For coverage purposes you'll get approximately forty 8x10 prints or thirty two A4 prints from a pack of this 946ml solution when allowing two coats (one for subcoat) per substrate which we recommend.


Use on paper and other porous substrates.


Print your digital mixed media images and photographs on almost any material that will run through your printer! Now you can work with the actual ink jet receptive coatings used on commercial ink jet media but on the substrate of your choice.


inkAID White Matte coating provides a bright white, matte surface. Printed images are clear and vibrant, with deep blacks. One moderate to heavy coat is recommend on a variety of surfaces like watercolor and printmaking papers, Japanese rice paper and other handmade and specialty papers, fabrics, canvas, wallpaper, metals, films, and wood veneer. A second coat may be applied on more porous surfaces, if needed. inkAID White Matte is very water resistant and prints can be coated with water based top coatings and varnishes.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Evelyn T. ★★★★★

The porous coating makes my inkjet photos dry almost instantly, so I can handle them without smudging. The 473ml bottle goes a long way on canvas panels, and the final matte finish looks professional.

John ★★★★★

I was surprised how quickly this coating dried—within minutes on canvas—and the matte finish is exactly what I needed for crisp inkjet prints without any glare.

Samuel F. ★★★★★

Applied this to a few mixed-media pieces and was surprised how smoothly it went on with a brush. The porous coating really does dry prints almost instantly, which saved me so much waiting time. This 473ml bottle has lasted through several projects and still feels like it's barely halfway gone.
