What if I make a mistake? No problem, whilst they are still wet they will simply wipe off effortlessly with a sponge and water. Matte varnish provides a subtle, non-reflective finish that works well for a natural look or pieces with lots of texture, while gloss varnish offers a shiny, reflective finish that can enhance colors and provide more durability. I personally prefer matte or semi. I never go for gloss. It’s my personal taste. Bottled drinking water and filtered water still contain trace elements and minerals that may also affect the paint over time so are not recommended either. These same adverse effects can also occur over time with de-ionised water which is purer than the others but not as pure as distilled water which is literally condensed steam. I wanted paints that were non-toxic and dried without heat. I wanted them to be easy to use, versatile and flexible. Most of all I wanted quality without the expense!

A matte fixative is typically used for charcoal and graphite artwork, preventing smudging without glare. What if I want to mix my own colours? The whole range is fully interchangeable. Any of the washes, detailing paints, mediums and pure paints can be mixed with each other. These paints are bottled in 10ml bottles with tamper proof lids. They have a ‘dropper stopper’ that allows you to add drops of paint to your palette to avoid waste. You can remove this stopper and use straight from the bottle if preferred. They are designed to be used with a brush and again consist of a mixture of pigments and mediums for direct application to the vinyl but can also be mixed with any of the products from the range.But what is varnish , exactly? What are the different types of varnish coating ? What type of varnish will be the best to use? One of the biggest issues I have with gloss varnish is that it can create glare and reflections that may be distracting or undesirable, especially if your artwork will be displayed in a brightly lit area. Matte varnish is also less likely to show fingerprints or smudges, making it a good choice for pieces that will be displayed without glass or in areas with high humidity. Matte varnish reduces glare and reflections, maintaining the delicate appearance of watercolor paintings. These are basically as the title! Sold in 10ml pots these are the paints without any mediums added. Small amounts can be used to add to the bottles of washes or detailing paints for changing or enhancing the base shades.

We have developed a new ultra gloss varnish, and a low shine matte varnish which are both waterproof and scratch resistant. They have been developed to work perfectly with air dry clay and provide a glazed ceramic look.Choose a suitable matte varnish for the medium use. You should not use a matte varnish for oil paintings on acrylic paintings or watercolors. Gloss Varnish Apply to a clean, DAMP/WET sponge with a brush (blotting to remove excess if needed) by dabbing all over vinyl parts.

The washes can be used as they are but are also fully mixable with other paints and mediums in the range if you want to tweak the shades, texture, consistency or drying time. The washes are a perfect product for beginners or those who are not confident with mixing colours or those who do not want to waste time constantly mixing their paints. They also provide a wonderful base for those who like to experiment. Gloss varnish can enhance color intensity, while matte varnish preserves the natural appearance of ink drawings. We were inspired to develop these paints for many reasons but primarily for health worries, ease of use and cost! In many cases, especially if your product isn’t being handled a lot, varnish is a much more economical way to add a layer of basic protection to your product without investing in the higher cost of laminates. A Seemingly Endless Variety of Options and Techniques When deciding between matte vs gloss varnish, it’s important to consider the context in which your artwork will be displayed. Some factors to keep in mind include:Encaustic paintings typically do not require varnish due to the natural protection provided by the wax medium. What if I want to vary my skin tones? Not a problem. You can vary the amounts of each layer you apply to achieve different looks i.e. more layers of pigment for darker/jaundiced look; more blues and darker reds for newborn and mottled looks. Make sure you keep your hands oil/grease free and work in a dust free environment away from lint or pet hairs! Not only does it protect against scuffs, fingerprints and smudges, it also increases the perceived value of the product. Varnish can be applied via spot finishing or in different processes that span the whole sheet. There is information available on all the ranges and mediums along with basic information and instructions for use.

Instructions on all the mediums are available in the instruction leaflet although most of them are self explanatory.Thank you for choosing our paints for your reborning – we are sure you will enjoy using them and that you will be pleased with how easy to use they are. They are totally versatile and are suited to reborn artists of all skill levels. They are specifically designed to work well on vinyl with the correct, easy preparation! Varnish is also flexible in terms of how it can be applied, which can create some unique and intense looks. Although most vinyl kits are now phthalphate and lead free we really do not know for sure what health risks may arise from continued exposure to heating the vinyl parts when setting the heat dry oil paints. My main concern was for my family – I did not want to find out down the line that I had damaged them in any way by exposing them to fumes that may be revealed as toxic in some way.
