Where a glossy finish is required, AK192 Glossy Varnish delivers a 60 ml water-soluble acrylic coating for model surfaces. Application is possible without spraying, while the formula is also designed to perform through an airbrush. It contains no odour, is non-toxic and needs 12 hours to become fully dry.
Lay down the varnish with a brush or pass it through an airbrush.
Shake thoroughly at the start of each painting session.
For dilution, the specified companion product is AK712 Acrylic Thinner.
The final surface is glossy once the coating has dried.
Account for the complete drying time before handling subsequent painting stages.

Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between a paint and a wash?+
Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.
Can I use these paints in an airbrush?+
Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.
Do I need a primer?+
Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.
