Van Bleiswijck Holland – Acrylic Varnish – Varnish – Gloss
Applying a varnish over acrylic has another purpose in addition to protecting the painting against dirt such as grease, nicotine deposits, UV light and moisture. Acrylic paint is thermoplastic, which means that the layer is sensitive to high temperatures (this can happen if something is constantly in the bright sun / is already hanging): this layer can then become sticky again and attract extra dirt that remains as soon as the layer is removed. what has cooled down. The varnish also provides an extra layer that is not thermoplastic!
Furthermore, varnish can be used to determine the overall visual impression of a painting (glossy, matt or satin) and ensure that no parts in the painting are more shiny than other parts.
Varnish usually consists of a resin (nowadays often synthetic resin because it does not yellow) that is dissolved in turpentine or white spirit. The solvent evaporates and the resin film remains as a layer on the painting. If the varnish has become dirty, this resin film can be removed without affecting the painting underneath. A new layer of varnish ensures a fresh appearance.
