Dura Clear Galaxy Varnish
"I haven’t used this yet but I know it will work great."
Galaxy Varnish
"This is the best for highlights on a painted project! I’ve made these and I love how it looks. I believe the thin wood snowflake is an item from years ago!"
Christmas gift
"I bought this to give to my sister for a Christmas gift. I also bought one for myself since we like to craft together. We haven’t used it yet but I have never been disappointed by any DecoArt product. I’m looking forward to using it."
Could use multiple coats.
"I only used it in a small area, but it needed more than one coat for any effect. I will use it again because I like the glitter. I don’t use glitter often , so I can’t compare it to another option."
Easy to use and leave a decorative top coat.
"It was easy to apply the varnish and the top coat gives a nice glittery finish. One coat is ok but it looks better with 2-3 coats. Also, easy to clean up."
Great

Q&A
- Does it dry clear?
- Hi Rochelle, thank you for your question. Our DuraClear Galaxy Varnish dries clear with the different glitter particles shining through. It is best used over darker backgrounds.
- Is it okay to spray clear coat over galaxy varnish for outdoor cement crafts? If so, what time is recommended before doing so. (No matter if it’ll needed or not by the actual product information, I truly need to know if it’s okay or will it just peel off?)
- Hi Melissa, thank you for your question. Our DuraClear varnishes are weather resistant, meaning that they protect items that may be exposed to occasional water. The drying time is approximately one-two hours, and the cure time is 24 hours.
- Is this product suitable for outdoors?
- Hi Karen, thank you for your question. Our DuraClear varnishes are all suitable for outdoor use. They are water-repellent, weather-resistant, and UV stable.
- After applying, can you just wash the brush with soap and water?
- DecoArt recommends using Jack's Linseed Studio Soap. This may be the world's best brush cleaner ever...but the best part about it is it can also be used to clean your work surface, floor and just about anything else that needs cleaning. This product carries the AP Seal of approval. https://products.richesonart.com/collections/artist-paintstik-shiva/products/studio-soap?_pos=3&_sid=3b0a8381c&_ss=r&variant=4941133348891
