12-Pack of 1 qt Decorative Dead Flat Varnish for Painters

Decorative Painter's Acrylic Dead Flat Varnish is an exceptional quality, water-based varnish that offers a dead flat finish, ensuring that the end result is devoid of unwanted sheen. This 100% acrylic product comes in a clear liquid form, conveniently packaged in a 1-quart container. Its formulation includes components such as solvent naptha, light aromatic elements, and 4.4 dimethyloxazolidine, which collectively contribute to its impressive performance and durability.

Designed for versatility, this varnish covers an impressive area of 350 to 450 square feet per gallon, making it suited for various decorative projects. The curing time is efficiently structured: it becomes touch-dry in just half an hour, sets to a workable state within two hours, and reaches full cure within twelve hours, assuming a standard environment of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and 50% relative humidity. For optimal application, the recommended temperature range is between 60 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

The varnish has a specific gravity of 1.042, and it emits a mild odor, which makes it user-friendly for indoor applications. Its application can be done through various methods, including brushing, rolling, or spraying, giving painters flexibility in how they apply the product. Among its standout features, the varnish effectively resists abrasion and water, ensuring that the finish remains intact and visually appealing over time.

One of the remarkable benefits of Dead Flat Varnish is its non-yellowing property. This means that the finish will not discolor, maintaining the integrity of the aesthetic it is applied over. Additionally, it effectively mitigates unwanted variations in sheen that may arise when using semi-gloss base coats alongside Decorative Glazes. Thus, it allows for a unified, aged effect across the surface.

While this varnish is user-friendly and versatile, it is important to note that it is not recommended for use over the Modern Masters Metallic Paint Collection™ or Metal Effects® Reactive Paints. This limitation is crucial to consider to avoid any adverse reactions or finish inconsistencies.

In summary, the Decorative Painter's Acrylic Dead Flat Varnish stands out as a high-quality choice for those seeking a clear, non-yellowing finish that enhances the beauty of decorative pieces while providing excellent durability. Its unique formulation and application versatility, along with its efficient drying and curing times, make it an ideal option for artists and decorators alike. Whether you’re looking to finish furniture or apply a protective layer on artistic projects, this varnish promises a clear, elegant result that will withstand the test of time.
