Not much risk if you adhered to the drying principles of your painting before you varnished! It is a painstaking, tedious and miserable job, but it can be done. I wouldn't have worried about it until a 3" gash was ripped into the linen of a painting, similar to a replay from the movie "The War of the Roses" in my second marriage!
Otherwise, if I was so lucky, I would wait until I am dead for some conservator two centuries from now in some museum to see the genius in my work to want to go to the trouble. Mike, why the concern?
