Warning! Don't use damar as a final picture varish

[Mike McCarty]

I have had good luck (at least within my short artistic life, and in the practical application sense) with this product:

Liquitex Soluvar low viscosity, final picture varnish (matte finish)

and

Liquitex Soluvar final picture varnish (satin finish)

I mix these two products in a 50-50 mixture to attain the degree of matte finish that I like.

The label states that this product is "Pure acrylic spirit varnish."

The label also indicates that it may be diluted with a 25% mixture of mineral spirits or turpentine.

I'm not real sure where this falls in the above discussion. Surely this Gamvar can't be the only acceptable picture varnish.
