Liquitex Professional High Gloss Varnish, 946ml (32-oz)

I recently used the Liquitex Professional High Gloss Varnish on my finished acrylic paintings and I’m highly impressed. I thinned it slightly with water to help with a smooth, even application, and it worked beautifully. Once dry, it delivers a true high-gloss finish that really enhances the depth and vibrancy of the colors—my artwork looks sharper, richer, and more polished. A great final touch that also provides lasting protection!

This is such a great product. Although it is typically used for a finish on oil or acrylic art, I purchased it to put on top of, like a glaze, my unfinished tile coasters, which I had painted and stamped. Upon further review, I realized this product could withstand the cold of an iced beverage, it would not work well with heated beverages. So, I began using it as a topcoat for my handmade Christmas ornaments. Works like a charm, and a little goes a long way. I watched an artist's YouTube video to find the specific application process, and I recommend doing the same. It's super easy, but I would have completely done it the wrong way if I had not watcched the video.

I like the satin finish because it gives depth to the color but doesn't make the painting look too shiny from different angles. It goes on very evenly over acrylic and two coats are enough.

Excellent worked as expected when following directions.

I really like this for my acrylic paintings. Leaves a nice gloss finish and is easy to apply. I knocked off one star because I can not figure out how not to leave streaks when applying… I have tried everything I can think of and can get it “pretty good” but I want streak free.

Worked as advertised. I wanted to put it on a canvas to protect it in my bathroom. It looks great and I like gloss.

I have been searching for something to seal my acrylic pours. I have tried so many things and I keep having more and more issues. It's beyond frustrating. I have lost so many of my paintings to wonky coating issues that I was pulling my hair out in frustration. I love the way resin looks however, that's a very temperamental beast in itself. Triple thick is ok as long as it doesn't crack... which happens very easily. This bottle arrived and I followed the directions exactly. I struggled with brush strokes initially, and I am pretty sure my method is weird, however, it seems to work. (Note that I live in Hawaii so I can't order aerosol versions of anything, If it's aerosol I have to find someone that carries it locally and that is super tricky too...I would like to try this in spray version someday if I find someone carrying it. Also to note I live on the super humid side of the island so I do realize my results could be different from someone living in a much drier climate) I put a thin coat onto my painting and if its not a textured painting I can use a pallet knife to spread evenly, and since I am working with canvas that has edges that need to be sealed as well I run my finger along the edges creating a super thin layer. The entire process is done switching between pallet knife and finger. This seems to work well for sealing the canvas and preventing it from doing a funky dimples thing, that's where the entire canvas will have a smooth surface with lots of dimples throughout. I do clean my canvas very well before sealing however, I can't help thinking there is some variable I am introducing with my paint mixture I make to do the pours however, this does seem to do the trick to eliminate any dimples so the next coats can go on smoothly. What I do not know yet is 1. how this compares to the spray version of the same thing and 2. If I can use this as a base on a painting that I want to resin. If this has no problems with resin then it would be nice to do a seal coat of this on my special canvases that I want to resin. This isn't going to give you a resin look, of course, this will give you a great seal that will protect the painting from UV, won't cause yellowing and preserves the paintings texture. I am not sure how many people will find that as important as I do, but this goes on in such thin coats that I am able to preserve the paintings texture for tactile enjoyment. Oh, and cleanup was a breeze! So, I am happy, this definitely has a permanent place in my painting toolbox so to speak. Good luck, hopefully, this will help preserve your beautiful works!

This high gloss varnish medium works so well to bring the shine of the wet paint back to the painting

Bon vernis. Ne pas en mettre une couche trop épaisse, cela laisse une epaisseur blanche .

bon produit conforme a ma commande

Probably my fault for not reading the can photo - I can't use this on most of my works. Right, back to Golden.
