Review: Excellent matt finish, dries very quickly. - Left a superb matt finish on my Eagle Transporter kit. Built it a couple of years ago but I couldn't get an authentic finish so put it away. Anyway, bought weathering paint and this varnish, huge transformation. Didn't react with existing paint or transfers or the weathering paint. Fantastic stuff!
Review: Great for reducing shine - A good varnish - I had some models that were extra shiny due to using contrast paints and this took the shine right off - great.
