Your portraits...I have been using retouch varnish and advise the client that the portrait needs a "final" varnish in 9 mos to a year.

I have heard others say they do this, and some say they use Liquin. What is the general practice? Surely you don't keep the portraits until they are ready for a "final" varnish.
