 Cover Story full-matt paints have CS signature matt finish with low light reflectance. 

Cleanup: It's recommended you clean painting supplies immediately after use, as the paint will stick to the brushes as it dries. Cover Story paints are water soluble, which means that water alone is enough to clean the equipment. Read more about cleaning here.
