Application Instructions
-
Preparation: Ensure the painted surface is completely dry and free from dust or oils before applying the varnish.
-
Spraying: Apply in light, even coats using a 0.5 mm needle. Over-saturating the surface may lead to runs or uneven drying.
-
Curing & Heat: To accelerate drying and increase the durability of the finish, carefully apply light heat with a heat gun.
-
Storage: Keep the bottle tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the varnish from drying inside the container.
Pro Tips for a Flawless Finish
-
Non-Porous Surfaces: When using as a topcoat on plastic or metal, multiple light layers are better than one thick layer for maximum adhesion.
-
Avoid Tip-Dry: Even with a 0.5 mm nozzle, keep a damp cloth nearby to wipe the needle tip periodically during long sessions.
-
Sneaker Customizing: This varnish is the "secret weapon" for ensuring custom sneaker art stays intact through daily wear and cleaning cycles.
