Frequently Asked Questions

What finish and size is this Brustro varnish?
Satin finish, in a 200ml spray can.

How is satin different from the matte Brustro spray?
Satin leaves a soft sheen. Matte, also 200ml, leaves a flat finish with no shine.

Is it water resistant?
The maker describes it as water resistant once dry. Let it dry fully before handling or framing.

Should I pick a spray or a brush on varnish?
A spray gives a thin, brush free coat that suits textured work. A brush on picture varnish in a bottle gives more control on small areas.
