Bluebird Polyurethane high-solids interior and exterior varnish is an easy-to-apply single component formula that provides a long-lasting finish that is highly resistant to scratches, abrasion, water, food stains, grease and detergents.

• Increases brightness and color saturation
• Adjusts and unifies surface sheen
• Improves surface durability – ideal when shipping or exhibiting
• Protects colors from UV light damage
• Resists discoloration – yellowing and fogging – caused by humidity, heat, and UV
• Semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry
• Use on flexible or rigid supports
• Designed for interior and exterior use

Usage:

• As this is permanent, do a patch test first
• Before varnishing ensure paint surface is fully dry (72 hours-two weeks depending on thickness)
• Ensure your space is well-ventilated and dirt and dust-free
• Place the artwork flat on a surface – always varnish horizontally
• Use long, even strokes, covering the surface top to bottom while moving from one side to the other – don’t go over bits you have missed, but leave to dry and then re-varnish the area
• Apply up to three thin coats, allowing at least three hours of dry time between coats

Avoid:

• Don’t apply in one thick coat, but several thin coats, to avoid drips and cloudiness
• Don’t go back over areas you have already done, as this can cause clouding
• Don’t attempt to remove once applied
