## Overview

Liquitex Professional Matte Varnish (237ml) is a premium, archival-grade acrylic varnish designed to protect and enhance your artwork. It dries to a hard, flexible, non-yellowing matte finish that resists dirt and UV damage. Safe, non-toxic, and low-odor, it’s perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. Compatible with all Liquitex acrylic paints and mediums, it ensures a streak-free, customizable sheen that preserves your creative vision for years to come.

## Description

Liquitex offers the broadest range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. Varnish Mediums protect the painting surface from the environment and protect the pigments from ultraviolet light. Additionally, varnishes can be used to change or unify a painting’s surface sheen. Liquitex varnishes come in several different sheens which can all be intermixed for a customized sheen. Liquitex Archival Permanent Varnish Finishing Medium is a low-odor, permanent and durable medium with water-based technology, translucent when wet, clear when dry. Resists discoloring (non-yellowing, non-fogging) due to humidity heat and ultraviolet light. Can be used with Spray Paint, Heavy Body, Soft Body. Dries to a non-tacky, hard, flexible surface that is resistant to dirt retention. Hard, archival, non-yellowing and water-resistant when dry. Protects acrylic color from harsh elements. For interior and exterior use. APPLICATION: 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 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. Caution: Acrylic paints and mediums become increasingly brittle in cold weather. Do not apply below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Visit our Liquitex desertcart Storefront for full product assortment.

Review: Leaves no streaks! Great finish - Nice matte finish and does not leave streaks. High quality and I definitely recommend to professional artists.
Review: My Favorite Matte Varnish - Liquitex is my go-to for most art supplies; specifically varnishes. They make great varnishes and I can always count on them to work great and not get tacky. The matte works so well and dries quickly. Not shiny at all and can go on most things. It works really well on polymer clay. It protects acrylic paint which is perfect for my commissions on Etsy. I look forward to many more great years with using Liquitex products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Favorite Matte Varnish

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smooth even coverage every time - if appied correctly
*by Z***C on March 15, 2026*

Excellent way to seal your acrylic paintings. Lay canvas flat, use a dry, synthetic brush, large enough to make as few passes on the canvas as possible. Don't load the brush with too much varnish... Maybe 1/2 inch to 1 inch depending on the brush size. Wipe excess off the brush. Apply varnish in one direction, light even pressure, from one end to the other without interrupting the stroke... Again, this depends on canvas width and brush size. The key is not too apply so much at a time that it puddles. Even distribution. Don't go back and forth as if you're painting. Think of it as painting fingernails. If you go back over the same spot it will be tacky and produce undesirable results. Go thin. If you're doing a second coat let dry thoroughly in between coats. If it looks like it's streaking, don't brush it again. Let the varnish settle, you'll be surprised that it will most likely fill in the streaks and wool have a smooth even coverage. I highly recommend this product and this brand specifically.
