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

- 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

- 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

- Don't apply in one thick coat, but several thin coats, to avoid drips and cloudiness

- Don't go back over areas you have already done, as this can cause clouding

- Don't attempt to remove once applied

- Do not use with any non-acrylic media
