Liquitex Professional Matte Varnish, 237ml

Liquitex, the leading provider of acrylic mediums, offers a broad range of products to inspire creativity throughout the painting process. The company's varnish mediums are designed to protect the painting surface from environmental factors and shield the pigments from ultraviolet light. Furthermore, these varnishes can be used to modify or unify the sheen of a painting's surface. Liquitex varnishes are available in various sheens, all of which can be intermixed to achieve a customized finish.

Liquitex Archival Permanent Varnish Finishing Medium is a water-based, low-odor, permanent, and durable medium. It is translucent when wet and dries to a clear, non-tacky, hard, and flexible surface that resists discoloration, yellowing, and fogging due to humidity, heat, and ultraviolet light. This medium can be used with Spray Paint, Heavy Body, and Soft Body acrylics, providing a protective layer that is archival, non-yellowing, and water-resistant when dry.

For optimal results, Liquitex Archival Permanent Varnish Finishing Medium should be applied as a final varnish over completely dried and cured acrylic paintings. The surface and environment must be clean, dry, and free of dust before application. While the medium can be applied by brush or spray, a sprayed application typically results in a thinner, smoother, and more even finish. Rolling or sponging applications are not recommended.

It is important to note that acrylic paints and mediums become increasingly brittle in cold weather, so the medium should not be applied below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Liquitex's comprehensive product assortment, including the Archival Permanent Varnish Finishing Medium, can be found on their Amazon storefront.

The Liquitex Archival Permanent Varnish Finishing Medium is an archival, permanent, and non-removable medium that dries to a matte finish. It is lightweight, non-toxic, and dries to a non-tacky, hard, and flexible surface that is non-yellowing and water-resistant. The medium comes in an 8-oz / 237ml bottle and is intermixable with Liquitex Professional Acrylic Paint Colors and Mediums. It conforms to ASTM D4236 standards and is safe for educational use.
