So, I know this question has been asked a thousand times already and I did my search, but I needed a little bit more info.
I need a matte finish that would be as matte as it gets (and still being a protective). Now, Dullcotte or whatsitcalled seems to be very popular, but it seem I can't ge it since I live in Sweden.
So, what other really good ones are there.
Hard mode: List only matte finishes available on maelstrom games, since that's where I buy from regularly.
Nightmare mode: Show pictures of your finish of choice on a mini.

Is not dullcote available in spray-cans only? So Maelstrom Games is not really an option - they only ship cans within the UK... Aside of that, I am using Army Painter Anti-shine, it is available from Maelstrom but see my previous comment about shipping issues.
As for the pictures...

They sell Vallejo's Matt Varnish, which is a brush on, but I've had good luck with it. You could probably put it through an airbrush if you wanted to spray it.

I use Windsor and Newton galleria matt varnish. Works good in an airbrush and on a brush, should be available most at most art suppliers.
Also Antenocitis Workshop sells Testors Dullcote in bottles and aerosol, could be expensive to ship though.

I've got a bottle of Testors Matte Varnish. It's about fifteen years old though; I have no idea if they still make it.
It's built to last, though; it's just as good today as it was when I bought it!
