Liquitex Basicx Additives Bottle Matte Varnish 250ml

Liquitex Basicx Additives Bottle Matte Varnish 250ml

Protect and seal your acrylic work with a transparent, matte layer which is breathable, permanent and protects against UV damage.

  • What it does
    • Adds a matte finish, protects and stops dirt build up
    • Dries clear to a flexible, non-tacky, hard surface
    • Increases brightness and color saturation
    • Improves surface durability - ideal when shipping or exhibiting
    • Protects colors from UV light damage
    • Resists discoloration - yellowing and fogging - caused by humidity, heat and UV
    • Use on flexible or rigid supports
    • Designed for interior and exterior use
    How to use it
    • 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 a large, soft brush
    • Stir gently before use
    • 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 up to three thin coats, allowing at least three hours dry time between coats
    How not to use
    • 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
    • Don't attempt to remove once applied
    • Do not use with any non-acrylic media
