Maimeri Restauro Retouching Varnish 75 ml
Maimeri Restauro Retouching Varnish (No. 686) is a lightweight, fast-drying varnish made with ketone resin, designed for partial application to an oil painting in progress or a finished one. It reliably solves the problem of paint becoming dull and sinking into dry or oily areas, while revitalizing the surface evenly and unifying the gloss of the artwork. It can be used before continuing work, before applying a final protective coat, or on its own as a lightweight final varnish.
