Liquitex Soluvar Varnishes are solvent based, durable, and non-yellowing. They can be applied to acrylic or oil paintings and reduce surface "tack," pressure sensitivity, and static electrical buildup. They dry to a clear, water-resistant surface that protects the painting from dust and dirt.

Soluvar varnishes also provide a measure of UV protection, are flexible, and will not craze or crack with changes in humidity and temperature. Mix matte and gloss varnishes together to achieve a range of matte or gloss effects.
