Anyway, I got some krylon matte varnish, and tested it on one mini. Unfortunately, the thing came out with what looked like a gloss coat! Is there anyway to dull the model down without going out and buying ever type of varnish you people recommend?!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559379.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559379.page GMT Matte Varnish

The only real way to cut the sheen from your varnish is to hit it with another, different matte varnish. (light coats!)
It's actually pretty common for people to gloss varnish their models for the more durable finish, then matte coat them to kill the shine.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559538.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559538.page GMT Re:Matte Varnish

LOL in my experience cheaper is better. Also forgot to mention try Another coat also. You may also want to make Shure you shake the can long enough I know it sounds dumb but you gotta shake it like a salt shaka' for around 5 mins at least the first. Time you use it. j]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559594.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559594.page GMT Re:Matte Varnish

How does Testors Dullcote compare to the old GW Matte Varnish? I want to have my models all look uniform, and have heard that GW's current "Purity Seal" is different from their old Matte Varnish....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559702.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559702.page GMT Matte Varnish http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559706.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559706.page GMT Matte Varnish Imho anyways]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559717.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229875/559717.page GMT
