Gamblin Gamvar Matte Picture Varnish 4oz
Gamblin Gamvar Matte Picture Varnish 4oz is a professional final varnish designed to protect oil and acrylic paintings while providing an even, non reflective matte finish. Developed by Gamblin in collaboration with the National Gallery of Art, it brings out the depth of colour while reducing surface glare and unifying the appearance of the painting. Gamvar is removable for conservation purposes and can be applied once an oil painting is thoroughly dry to the touch, allowing the paint to continue curing underneath the varnish layer. The 4oz size is ideal for artists who varnish individual works or smaller paintings and want a reliable museum quality protective finish.
How to Use
Ensure the painting is dry
Apply Gamvar Matte Picture Varnish 4oz once the painting is thoroughly dry to the touch. This is typically between 2 weeks and 2 months depending on the thickness of the paint.
Application
Use a clean, soft varnish brush and apply a thin, even coat across the surface of the painting. Work gently and avoid over brushing.
Even coverage
Brush in one direction and maintain a light, consistent application to achieve a uniform matte finish.
Drying
Allow the varnish to dry in a dust free environment to ensure a clear and even surface.
Tip
Shake the bottle well before use to evenly disperse the matting agents and apply thin coats to maintain clarity and ensure the varnish remains removable in the future.

Gamvar is a revolutionary final picture varnish that can be used on oil and acrylic paintings. Unlike most final oil painting varnishes, it can be applied as soon as the thickest part of a painting is dry to the touch (unlike the usual waiting time of 6 ��_��_��_ 12 months)! If the work has a lot of heavy paintwork, you can test how dry it is by pressing the edge of your nail into the artwork ��_��_��_ if the paint is firm it can be varnished! Gamvar goes on water-clear and stays water-clear. It is flexible and allows the paint to cure beneath the varnished surface. A real game-changer in the painting world!
Gamvar Matte gives your work a unified and protective matte surface. Gamvar Matte reduces surface sheen, while maintaining the deepest values in your painting.
