Description
Glamour II Veneer, an award-winning and proprietary canvas varnish (and/or giclee varnish), has been developed to protect, preserve and enhance fine art and photographic prints produced on digital inkjet printers. This new non yellowing, water based canvas varnish is a perfect solution for easy inkjet print finishing. Glamour II will enhance the color of pigmented and ultrachrome inks on matte media and increase resistance to image fading. It will protect your expensive images against moisture and abrasion. It has been specifically developed as a water based product to avoid the unpleasant and hazardous fumes given off by solvent based products. In smaller production, G2 should be roll brush applied. Only one coat is necessary. G2 can also be brush applied, sprayed, and used in roll coaters. The product has self-leveling qualities that make it virtually ideal for one-step hassle free coating and no streaks. Always heat the water before you mix with Glamour II Coating. Put a cup of distilled water in the microwave for 8-10 seconds, then mix. This will make mixing easier and allow G2 to be applied more evenly and effortlessly. Do not apply any pressure with the foam roller. Only use the weight of the roller to spread around the coating. Pressure will cause streaks and lines that are impossible to get out. It will also cause air to pass through the foam roller and inject into the coating, creating air bubbles. The canvas is so thirsty that it will pull the coating into the weave, by itself. Be VERY generous with the coating. Your print should look like you have spilled a glass of water on it. Almost every problem that can happen during this coating process can be solved by using more G2. Quickly spread the coating around the print, making sure there is a lot of coating touching every area, then walk away. Do not try to make the print look perfect or even while it is still wet. There are leveling agents in the coating will do the rest.
