Liquitex Acrylic Varnishes

Liquitex offers a variety of varnishes that have been specifically designed to achieve optimal clarity.

Varnishes are applied over dry paint films and have several purposes. The first and most important function is to protect the painting surface from dust and environmental pollution. Secondly, 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. Our varnishes are permanent and can be applied to both flexible and rigid supports.
