I use this product regularly along with gloss varnish to control the amount of Matt-shine ratio I prefer on my work as an artist.This is a good seller as well, the product arrived in tact and in a timely manner.

Very nice varish for oil paintings

It was bought for my wife. She used it and absolutely loves it..

I've used GAMVAR for oil paintings. However, I recently had to stain some new bathroom wall tiles to match the existing, older tiles. Wasn't sure that varnishing the tiles with gamvar would actually hold once the grout was put in, but it did!! The stain didn't bleed and I was VERY happy with the results. This stuff goes on clear and is wonderful!

We've tried a few different varnish products and Gamblin is a good name. However we just didn't feel good with this one, so we moved on to Grumbacher. Probably a fine product, just not right for us.

I was wanting a varnish or medium that would dry matte or even satin. This is super glossy even when fully dry. I want a refund!

It definitely leaves a white residue once it dries. I saw a few other reviews saying the same thing. I even shook the bottle up before hand to see if that would help. Just for reference I use Daler and Rowney liquid acrylics on thicker paper, specifically for acrylics. I did a test strip and compared it to the Gamvar Satin...it definitely leaves a white residue. So for now I'll be sticking with the Satin, which I have never had any issues with.
