The problem is that frosting occurs due to humidity, because you are atomizing the mix it binds with water particles in the air and the frost effect occurs.


No.


The frosting in this case is simply from an over-application of the product. I use, and really like the Vallejo matt varnish. My personal recipe is as follows;

3 parts Vallejo Matt Varnish
7 Parts Future Solution(basically a 50/50 mix of distilled water and Future Floor Polish)

This leaves a finish that is somewhere between semi-gloss and flat, leaning more toward flat. If you mix straight water, the result is very flat. I choose to add the Future because it gives a little more durability to the finish. The other thing that helps is several thin, quick cotes as opposed to one thick cote.
