Liquitex Professional Gloss Varnish, 237ml (8-oz)

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 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!

My favorite varnish. It's easy to use, exceptional quality and it goes a long way. I got the Gloss one in the 32 oz bottle first, then I went with the gallon just because I do not want to run out of it. I have nothing negative to say about it. It does not yellow, it leaves a satin finish and it goes on smoothly with no issue. I know it's better to use the sponge applicator, but I use a regular brush every time with zero issues. I just wash the brush with warm water and dish soap and it cleans up well. The varnish levels up and dries very fast. I usually apply 2-3 coats, but lately I decided 1 coat is enough. More coats makes it look shinier.

Works better than paste gloss. Love it. Thanks, Debra Rolon

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.

I use this sealer on rocks I paint and leave around town. Very easy to brush on and dries quickly. I use 3 coats on my rocks and it protects my rocks from snow, ice, rain and sun. I also love the shine it gives the rocks.

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

Used it and liked the gloss on the painting.
