Protect finished paintings with a crystal-clear varnish that never yellows
Oil paintings reach their true depth of color only when properly varnished. Gamvar's high refractive index matches natural resins and oils, saturating pigments to reveal the full intensity your palette offers, colors appear richer, darks deepen, and surface variations unify into cohesive presence.
This synthetic resin varnish protects oil, acrylic, and alkyd paintings from atmospheric dust and grime without the yellowing that plagues traditional damar or mastic formulas. Low molecular weight keeps the coating water-clear and removable; unlike natural resins that cross-link and harden over time, Gamvar maintains consistent solubility for future conservation work. UV stabilizers provide additional protection against light degradation.
Apply with a brush once the thickest passages feel thoroughly dry and firm to the touch. Three finish options, gloss, satin, and matte, let you control final surface character, from the luminous depth traditional oil technique demands to contemporary preferences for reduced sheen. Available in 125ml and 250ml bottles to match project scale and studio use patterns.
