Polyvine Decorators Varnish Dead Flat – Water Resistant Clear Varnish with UV Protection - Seals and Protects Emulsion, Acrylic Paint, Wallpaper, Wood, Furniture, Plaster & Fabric, 100ml

I’m very happy with this varnish. It applies smoothly, dries quickly and leaves a clean, clear finish. The water resistance is excellent — exactly as described. Perfect for protecting decorations and wood surfaces. Definitely worth the money.

I purchased this to protect a table I had decorated using emulsion paint. Ordinary varnish dried with a yellow finish which looked awful. After some research I discovered this water soluble varnish and I have to say it is brilliant. It looks like frothy milk when you apply it. I used a non shed brush and applied 3 coats. It has very little odour and it dries to a perfect invisible finish. Being so impressed with the coverage and protection of my painted table I decided to use this varnish on a reclaimed oak dining table which only had a thin wax for protection and so was covered in water stains. After a quick sand and 3 coats of polyvine dead flat varnish I now have a dining table which does not have any stains and I don't panic any more when I see a cup or glass on it without a coaster. The finish is amazing, you really wouldn't think the wood had any finish on it at all as there is no hint of varnish on the wood but yet gives a descent amount of protection. I don't think either table would be protected from hot plates or cups but for general spillages this water soluble varnish does a great job.Very impressed with this product and being water soluble you clean your brushes with water and the varnish itself is much better for the environment.Chuffed!

This is a magical item it transforms the paint job into a smooth look. I would strongly recommend this item if you are painting kitchen cupboard doors or any internal door of flat surface as it gives the job a perfect look

Why did you choose this product over others?: Amazing varnish, accidentally chose a matt finish emulsion paint to go on wood doors and the is varnish seals it so easily, very quick drying and easy to use! Doesn't streak at all with a gentle brush, less is definitely more - pictured before and after

Applied this 'varnish' to wallpaper I hung on a feature wall in my bathroom. As to its ability to repel moisture, that remains to be seen. But I'm certainly hopeful.

I discovered this after looking at options for installing wallpaper in a bathroom and finding that this was the solution. I’ve installed ‘normal’ wallpaper and then given it two coats of this varnish. It goes on easily (I used a brush near the edges and a sponge roller over the rest). The ‘flat’ finish is barely noticeable once dry (I did a trial on a section of wallpaper sample first and it was almost indistinguishable which half I’d coated). Its only been a month but so far so good, the wallpaper is protected from moisture and it looks no different to before I coated it.

Amaxing product seals very well drys amazingly flat and dull be care not to apply to much as it leaves white lines roller till it appears clear
