Product Description

This premium gloss varnish is specially formulated to intensify colors, impart a luminous sheen, and protect your paintings against environmental damage and aging.

Why This Varnish Is Essential for Acrylic Artists

• Clear, High-Gloss Finish
  The Daler Rowney Gloss Varnish delivers a vibrant, transparent gloss that amplifies depth and richness in your acrylic layers. The finish brings out highlights and intensifies contrasts without altering original tones.

• Durable Protection
  Once dry, it forms a protective barrier that resists dust, fingerprints, pollutants, and other airborne particles. It also helps protect your piece from gradual fading caused by UV exposure and atmospheric harm.

• Soluble & Removable
  Because it’s a soluble varnish, this finish can be removed or recoated if needed — ideal for future restorations or touch-ups. It seals without locking in imperfections permanently.

• Easy to Use & Quick Drying
  This varnish applies smoothly with a brush or soft applicator and dries relatively quickly (dry to touch in moderate conditions). Multiple thin coats are better than one thick coat for achieving a flawless surface.

• Small But Effective Quantity
  The 75 ml size is perfect for smaller canvases, practice works, or occasional touch-ups. Its compact size ensures freshness with minimal waste for individual artists.

How to Apply & Best Practices

1. Ensure the Painting Is Fully Dry
   Acrylic paintings should be allowed to cure fully (often days or weeks depending on thickness) to avoid trapping moisture.

2. Stir Gently
   Mix the varnish gently to avoid introducing bubbles. Do not shake vigorously.

3. Apply Thin, Even Coats
   Use a flat, soft brush or foam applicator. Spread light, even coats and avoid heavy pooling in corners or textured areas.

4. Drying Time & Additional Coats
   Let each coat dry thoroughly before applying the next. In normal room temperature and humidity, light coats may feel dry to the touch in a few hours, but full cure takes longer.

5. Cleaning & Removal
   If needed, the varnish can be carefully removed using appropriate solvents (always test a small inconspicuous area first) without harming the original paint.

(FAQs)

Q1: Will this varnish yellow over time?
A: No — the Daler Rowney Soluble Gloss Varnish is designed to be clear and non‑yellowing when properly cured and applied. With correct use and under standard environmental conditions, it maintains clarity and gloss.

Q2: Can I use this varnish over mixed media or texture surfaces?
A: Yes, but caution is advised. On heavily textured or raised surfaces, apply very thin coats and avoid pooling. Test a small area first to see how the varnish settles.

Q3: Can I remove or replace the varnish later?
A: Yes — one of the advantages of a soluble varnish is that it is removable or recoatable using suitable solvents, making future restoration possible.

Q4: How many layers should I apply?
A: Typically, 1 to 3 thin coats are sufficient. More than that may cause gloss irregularities or buildup. Always wait until each coat is fully dry before applying the next.

Q5: How long should I wait before varnishing freshly painted acrylic work?
A: It’s best to wait until the paint is fully dry and cured—this duration can vary depending on paint thickness, humidity, and temperature. Generally, waiting at least 24 to 48 hours (or more for very thick layers) gives better results.
