Matisse Polymer Gloss Varnish

Polymer Gloss Varnish & Medium serves as a gloss finishing varnish and a glossy additive to the paint. This varnish will help maintain colour intensity with a gloss finish comparable to that of oil paintings.

Mixed with Matisse Colours, it increases gloss and flows characteristics. Used as a finishing varnish, it produces a strong, protective, tack-free, clear film. Pictures treated with Polymer Gloss Varnish will look like work done with oil paints or shiny enamel. Polymer Gloss Varnish and Polymer Matt varnish are freely inter-mixable to achieve a semi-gloss or satin finish. Polymer Gloss Varnish dries completely clear, is non-yellowing, and it will remain flexible. Polymer water-based varnishes may appear to be slightly hazy whilst in solution. This optical effect is produced by light refraction of acrylic particles suspended within the water-based medium. The effect disappears when the film is dry.
