Description
Professional matte varnish is a water-soluble acrylic polymer varnish that produces a matt finish. It does not dramatically reduce color depth as does matt medium, and has good chemical and water resistance when dry. It is flexible, archival, non-yellowing and water resistant when dry. It can be applied as a final varnish over dry acrylic paint, and should be cleaned, dried and dust free before application. Acrylic paintings must be completely dried and cured for a minimum of 48-72 hours before varnishing. Application may be done by brush or spray. Generally, a sprayed application will be thinner, smoother and more even. Rolling or sponging application is not recommended. If more than 1 varnish coat is desired, apply 1-2 coats of Liquitex gloss varnish before applying a final coat of Liquitex matt varnish.
* Low viscosity - very fluid.* Produces a matt finish* Does not
drastically reduce color depth as does matt Medium.* 100% acrylic
polymer varnish. Water soluble when wet. Good chemical and water
resistance when dry.* Dry to a non-tacky, hard, flexible surface
that is resistant to retention of dirt.* Resist discoloring
(non-yellowing, non-fogging) due to humidity, heat and ultraviolet
light.* Depending upon substrate, allows moisture to pass through
(breathable).* Will not crack as surface expands and contracts
during temperature and humidity changes. Applicable for any acrylic
painted surface (flexible and rigid) on canvas, paper, wood, stone,
Plexiglas, etc.* Not for use over oil paint.* Flexible, archival,
non-yellowing and water resistant when dry.* For interior and
exterior useApplication:* Apply as a final varnish over dry acrylic
paint.* Varnish surface and environment must be clean, dry and dust
free.* Acrylic paintings must be completely dried and cured for a
minimum 48-72 hours before varnishing.* Application may be done by
brush or spray. Generally a sprayed application will be thinner,
smoother and more even. Rolling or sponging application is not
recommended.* If more than 1 varnish coat is desired, apply 1-2
coats of Liquitex Gloss Varnish before applying a final coat of
Liquitex matt Varnish.* Caution: Acrylic paints and mediums become
increasingly brittle in cold weather. Do not apply below 60
degrees. Thinning: Do not thin, as it will weaken the varnish film
and adhesion. Removal: Not removable. Do not attempt to remove
these varnishes with harsh solvents. Safety Data Sheet:
