Polyvine Interior Wood Varnish Dead Flat Hard Wearing (Pint)

This is my go to varnish for decoupage. It is very user/beginner friendly. It doesn't have a strong order, which someone like me who has a sensitive nose really appreciates. The finish is as expected. I never have any problems using this product. Clean up is a breeze, just soap and water. I use this for small to medium projects so the bottle size is perfect and lasts me a long time before I need to repurchase.

Applied with a brush but needed to water it Down by less than 2% to allow it to flow. Finish was hard, Dead flat was very dull so went back to Satin.

The quality of the Polyvine is always the best! It goes on easy and has a nice finish!

This is awesome stuff ! Pricey yes ! But very much worth it. It goes a long way.

I do crafts and this brand was told to do the best job. So glad I could get it from you.

Love this product. We built a farmhouse table for our patio and used this product over chalkboard paint. I put three coats on Polyvine since the table is outdoors (covered patio) in the heat and humidity of Oklahoma. It is so durable and easy to clean. I would use this again. Also a plus is no odor and dries quickly.

I use either Decorator's Varnish (DV) or Wood Varnish (WV) on painted furniture - sometimes both on the same piece, sepending on part being varnished. Both produce a beautiful, satin smooth finish when lightly sanded; both give wonderful depth to large surfaces, and have the slightest sheen when buffed. I usually go with 3 coats of DV on a piece, 2 of WV. I I use WV on the tops of low dressers and bookcase shelves, as it seems to stand up to bumps and knocks even better that DV. The biggest difference is drying time. I find that DV dries so fast that it's difficult to get long strokes without lap lines on large surfaces. Since the DV takes longer to dry, it's easier to get brush strokes from end to end of a large surface without worry about the varnish drying out faster than you can work. The WV needs about a day before you can safely handle it without fingerprints, and 2 - 3 days before you can turn the varnished surface face-side down onto another surface with sticking or picking up debris (learned the hard way!)I paint furniture for a living, and I love both of these products. I've tried two other dead flat finish varnishes, but was unhappy with the finished product. I highly recommend both.

This wasn’t supposed to turn my white bed yellow... was it? Well it did. I ended up using more paint to cover it so it would be a white bed. Probably a bad choice in product. Others love it but what a disappointment. I will say it worked great on my blue project!

I have a lot of unpainted plywood in my house.I didn't want it to look like it was covered in gooey varnish but I wanted it protected.This Polyvine Heavy Duty Interior Varnish goes on like water, simple and easy.I have no lines or marks in the varnish. It looks like freshly cut plywood.It has lasted two and a half years and still looks perfect.I wouldn't use anything else indoors.

I do not like any type of shine on my craft work and this product does what it says - it is a dead flat varnish.

Caught my interest my dining table, as it is heat resistant as well. Was easy to apply with a paint brush, with quick 45 min drying time as expected. I applied 3 layers without sanding in between, but did not bother starting with 2 layers of satin before the final dead flat, as written on the container. It still seems to do the work and protect my painted table. It even helped hide some of the paint brush marks visible before applying the varnish. No distortion of the colours. Much better than the varnish i used before which ended up tacky after a few months. I will see after a few months and update the feedback if needed.

Fantastic product, not my first polyvine dead flat varnish purchase but most definitely my favourite.....I have used this to seal my up-cycled pine Kitchen plate rack that I’ve painted white, it’s now heat/water proof.So far so good my paint job has a super protective non shiny surface that’s easy to clean and looks great

Loves this. After trying several similar items this is definitely my favourite. I kept putting off buying it as it is pricier than previous ones I had bought but you definitely get what you pay for. It is easy to use, dries quickly and clear, very durable ,will last a long time
