Polyvine Decorator's Dead Flat Varnish Pint / 500ml

Matte is invisible on the flat farrow and ball wallpaper behind my counter. Yet I’ve spilled tomato sauce on it and just wiped it off with a damp cloth. Applying is as easy as dusting. No smell. Nothing gross or sticky. Do use multiple coats per instructions. So many products today are so terrible I’m just amazed at how simple this is and how well it works.

I need a quality varnish to seal my decoupaged wood coasters to be resistant to heat and water. This also will protect wood items you want to put outside. Just make sure you read before purchasing can be used for outside. Like this comes in a variety of shines or no shine. It takes a long curing time but when finished this you will be glad you used this. Also Important that when these are stacked in a coaster holder they do not stick together. Easy cleaning brushes. Just wash with soap and water.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been refinishing furniture for years and my latest piece I decided to wrap completely with wallpaper but then I was like oh crap how do I protect the top of the dresser? Well I researched and found this top coat that seals and protects wallpaper from water, heat etc. got it yesterday and was amazed how easy it spreads. I used a roller and it was such an easy application. I did about 4 coats on the tops of the dressers and two everywhere else. I figured the top will need extra protection from cups, and whatever else gets placed on top of dressers. I only used about half the bottle. So as I initially thought this product was pricey… after seeing how much I got out of the bottle, I think the price is right.I have yet to see how it holds up by setting coffe mugs or whatever on top of it. But so far I am very pleased with the outcome!

It did not discolor my wallpaper at all. You can't tell where the varnish started and stopped. Love the product.

I have been using Polyvine products for many years. This matte/flat sealer is great to use over Annie Sloan chalk paint, as it will not change or degrade the finish. It can also be used over Annie Sloan waxes. I am using this currently to seal over an Annie Sloan project- painting a putrid colored kitchen tile backsplash in a solid matte black. Much cheaper than ripping out and replacing it!

Love this product! It goes on nice, dries quickly with hardly any bubbles and leaves a nice flat finish. I use it on painted furniture.

I used this over chalk paint, it was easy to use and left the smallest of sheen which enhanced my kitchen cabinets. Had enough to give 30 cabinet doors and 8 drawers two coats - awesome product.

I bought some of this product a year ago and was pleased with how flat the finish was - better than anything I have tried to date. I purchased more after creating a sample with my wallpaper with the old bottle. When I applied the finish from the new bottle (stirred well) I ended up with a pearl/satin shine that looked nothing like my sample. I applied the new finish to half the sample and half was shiny. Do not assume this product is 'flat'. I used this on predominately white wall paper which I will need to fix as the sheen detracts from the print. Purchasing a flattening agent to add to this product but I should not have to.
