Water-Based Varnish 1.18 Ounce-Gloss

Bought this on a whim, as I wasn’t sure it would work. But it was the best decision. The gloss is perfect, dries quickly and its easy to apply.

When I received the jar of varnish, it appeared rather liquidy. Weeks later, when I opened it, it was thick, dry, and pasty. The label said to keep it away from heat or cold, and I wondered if it had just been stored in a slightly cool place too long. I filled a bowl with warm water, and set the jar down in it (not submerged, but just so the water came almost to the lid). After the water came to room temperature, I warmed the water again and repeated the process several times. The varnish slowly returned to a liquid consistency, and was ready to use. Used this to glaze a set of polymer clay crochet hook handles. I did two coats of varnish, and it created a beautiful, glossy finish. Will definitely use again, but this jar will last a long time.

I use this gloss to protect and add some shine to my finished polymer clay pendants/earrings.

I liked it ,just not enough. I thought the bottle held more.

Quality

It's not glossy enough for me. I love a lot of shine. It's low to medium

Unlike the old varnish the new material takes two coats. The result seems to be just as good though
