Abstract: A glare reducing coating for reflective-transmissive surfaces such as the glass screen of a television or CRT including a resin binder, plasticizer, solvent, and flatting agent. The resin binder is nitrocellulose or an acrylic resin or a mixture of nitrocellulose and acrylic resin, and the particular plasticizer used depends upon the choice of resin binder. Preferred plasticizers are polyesters, phthlates, and alkyds, the amount of plasticizer utilized being determined by the degree of flexibility desired for the dried coating. Silica is the preferred flatting agent, and any of a large number of common organic solvents are utilized.
