How to use it
As this is permanent, do a patch test first
Before varnishing ensure paint surface is fully dry (72 hours-two weeks depending on thickness)
Ensure your space is well ventilated and dirt and dust-free
Place the artwork flat on a surface – always varnish horizontally
Stir gently before use
Do not thin with water
Use long, even strokes, covering the surface top to bottom while moving from one side to the other – don’t go over bits you have missed, but leave to dry and then re-varnish area
While applying, look for surface bubbles by inspecting it from all angles and even them out immediately
Apply 1-2 thin coats, allowing at least three hours dry time between coats
If you require more than two layers, first use Gloss Varnish as a base layer and build to your desired thickness, then apply Satin Varnish as your top coat
How not to use it
Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
Don’t apply with a roller or sponge brush
Don’t apply in one thick coat, but several thin coats, to avoid brush marks, drips and cloudiness
Don’t go back over areas you have already done, as this can cause clouding
