Jack,
I have used matte medium 1+3 and 1+7, both successfully. I have also tried
1+9. It works sometimes but not all the time, so I might be close to the
upper limit of dilution.
I haven't done much printing for a while. I am getting back to printing and
probably have to choose a paper and start my sizing test again. I think
different paper with different internal sizing might need different
dilution/coating.
When I started trying acrylic, I only had gloss medium with me, so I added
some cooked starch to the acrylic to make it matte, and that worked too.
