GENESIS™ ARTIST OIL TIP
Tips for Varnishing Genesis Heat set Oil Paint
There is only one varnish I know that is compatible with Genesis Paints. Acrylic Polyurethane Air Dry Varnish or Benjamin Moore's Stays Clear Acrylic Polyurethane Varnish. Do not use spray varnishes as all of them will react with the paint and keep your painting wet indefinitely. (forever!)
The best application of varnish is through a spray gun and air compressor. Do a thin coat followed by a couple thicker coats.
- Make sure your painting is thoroughly dry.
- Remove dust with a soft brush or cloth.
If you don't have a compressor set up, then use the brush method.- Have a clean, soft bristled Haake Brush and smack it around to remove loose hairs.
- Dip the brush into the Air dry varnish or Benjamin Moore's Stays Clear Acrylic Polyurethane Varnish. Brush with level strokes in one direction like up and down or side to side. Brush for about a minute to keep varnish thin. Small gaps in the varnish may form. Keep brushing to minimize them but stop brushing before varnish starts to harden (the gaps will disappear with further layers of varnish).
- Let that layer dry for a couple hours and keep away from dust while drying. Lean it against a wall facing downward.
- Wash the brush well with water and then flick excess water out. Let brush dry before applying next layer.
- Repeat varnishing by stroking the next coat in the opposite direction as the previous coat. If there are no more gaps occurring stop with this coat. If, after two coats there are still gaps, apply one more coat later.
- Let dry a couple days before framing.
