Liquitex BASICS Matte Varnish, 250ml Bottle

Developed for students and artists who require dependable quality at an economical price, BASICS mediums and varnishes are designed to cater to their specific needs. BASICS mediums are mixed with acrylic paint to adjust the paint's working properties, including texture, flow, and overall appearance. These mediums, which contain acrylic resin, help maintain or even enhance the stability of the paint film, and can be used in any desired quantity.

BASICS Varnishes, on the other hand, are permanent and serve to protect finished paintings. The permanent matte varnish is specifically formulated to shield completed artworks, creating a clear, non-yellowing finish. Additionally, the matte varnish can be blended with gloss varnish to achieve a variety of final sheen levels, allowing artists to customize the desired surface appearance.

Regarding the application process, BASICS Varnishes are best applied using a large, soft brush, ensuring an even and smooth coverage. Furthermore, these varnishes are ACMI certified and conform to ASTM D4236, making them safe for educational use.

In summary, BASICS mediums and varnishes offer a reliable and cost-effective solution for students and artists who require high-quality materials to support their creative endeavors. The mediums' ability to modify the paint's working properties, coupled with the varnishes' protective capabilities and versatile finish options, make BASICS a compelling choice for those seeking to optimise their artistic process and preserve their finished works.
