Can liquitex matte varnish be used on oil painting

I used it on oil painting and it worked for me. I would say make sure you mix the solution before use and first try it in a small area and wait for it to get dry and see the result before applying a large surface.

Hard to say - this stuff is not real lacquer. Real lacquer has the property of blending new coats because of the vehicle (lacquer thinner).Call the mfgr.

Generally canvas boards that are good for acrylic paints are also good for oil paints

There are probably better and cheaper solutions for moulding like tongue oil or linseed oil. Van's works well on unfinished wood furniture, so I'm sure it would also work on unfinished moulding just make sure you have enough and it does have to be reapplied over time.

I would bet that you could. The varnish is minimal and the pine color is very light.

Try The Army Painter primers. It's a solvent based acrylic. It's more expensive, but you get 400ml per can, so the cost per oz. can be cheaper than this

I don't think so. Lacquer has the advantage that you can re-coat even many years later. It is not very scratch resistant. I do not know about heat. I use satin Deft for turned objects that will not get a great deal of wear when I want a low luster. If you do use it and it is going over an existing finish, coat with shellac before applying.Many years ago I finished our kitchen table with tung oil and it held up remarkably well for many years of hard use.

I am not sure - I am using a basic oil based minwax finish on my outdoor project and the result is beautiful!! I did find a website that addresses the diffrent types/uses of finishes based on product content; indoor vs. outdoor. Maybe the site can help - Good luck with your project, here is the site address. http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/articles/difference-between-spar-varnish-and-regular-varnish/

If using an oil based paint such as Rustoleum topside paint, oil based Marine Primer for metal would be best. If for some reason you are using Latex paint then Latex primer would be good. You will not get the gloss of topside paint with a Latex though.

Any type of paint or ink! I have a colleague who builds model ships and uses thinned house paint on his hulls! Here's the caveat: the paint must be mixed rather thin (think skim milk) and can't contain coarse pigment. How coarse? Get a few fine strainer funnels from a model tools supplier. If the paint passes easily through the finest mesh funnel it's OK to apply through an airbrush nozzle. Clean-up is a MUST, and acrylics are far easier to clean up. Water and mild detergent or Windex works for almost any routine clean-up job. The seals in your Master airbrush will not react negatively to a mineral spirits solvent but I wouldn't press my luck. This is an inexpensive set (I bought one for my granddaughter) that will work well for you but don't abuse it by leaving volatile spirits in the brush for prolonged peruiods. Good luck!

Yes. I spray my prints with a clear gloss finish varnish and I have had excellent results.

I should think so. It may help to slightly roughen the inside of the ring to assist in adhesion. Also, make sure the metal is clean, lacquer thinner will remove any oil residue. Depending on the thickness, it may take more than one application, due to shrinkage.

I don't think I'm qualified to answer that question. However, I did use it to spray a louvered door with latex paint. I had to thin the paint with water and some alcohol. but it worked just fine. I haven't used it with any other fluids yet. I do like the product and would recommend it especially for the price.

Yes, But you have to use Thinner with the Oil paint for it to spray properly

They say they can be used but I have only tried them on mason jars and glass bottles. Not impressed. The Martha Stewart paints and Plaid are wonderful for glass with the Liquitex Medium Semi- gloss over them. Hope this helps.

This is a material that can be mixed with anything that contains water. Anything acrylic you can mix with water but not solvent. Oil base paint you could mix with solvent, no water. Regards

I personaly don't use this paint. I bought this for an elderly client that I take care of. He uses it on wooded areas, paper and canvas. If your figures are going to be wooden I say this is the product for you but if you're trying to do glass or plastic. I don't think it'll be a good Idea.
