About the product
Winsor & Newton Professional Varnish Sprays
The final coatings for finished pictures, varnishes protect from the build-up of dirt and grease. It is important to wait until oil paintings are thoroughly dry before varnishing.
Protects oil & acrylic paintings, with UV protection. Removable with White/Mineral Spirit or Turpentine.
This professional varnish spray delivers excellent coverage and protection for various art mediums including acrylics, oils, pastels, and collages. Customers said it "adds richness to the canvas" and "brings out colour nuances." The spray applies evenly without clumping and includes UV protection. However, the strong odor requires good ventilation, and some found the satin finish duller than expected.
- Adds a richness to the canvas- brings out colour nuances.
- Worked perfect for my project. Sprayed evenly
- Covers and protects without unwanted spattering of varnish found in some inferior brands
It worked perfectly for my neo-color pastels layered on top of acrylic.
Too smelly
Adds a richness to the canvas- brings out colour nuances.
Excellent
Fantastic for heavily textured paintings
Exactly what I was hoping for!
Great product
Worked perfect for my project. Sprayed evenly
I’ve started using the Windsor & Newton varnish spray and find it works well on my paper collages for exhibition. It hasn’t saturated my medium or clumped when sprayed. I also wanted a varnish that has a UV protectant and this seems to do the job.
I was happy to see in very fine print that this is uv protective, they don’t feature that for some reason. It’s super stinky, but as long as it’s applied in the fresh air it’s ok. And it dries quickly
Easy to use, spray evenly, quality is great!
All works well I have used this for many years on my oil paintings
Mission accomplished, easy to use.
This varnish is labled as Satin finish but it is very dull...more like a matt finish.
I find your product to be everything as advertised … covers and protects without unwanted spattering of varnish found in some of the inferior brands
I like the glossy finish, it brings out the colours and texture of my art work.
Excellent coverage. Use with good ventilation.

I've just started using their Varnish... love it so far but not enough to rate it!
I was in a rush, I asked for help, and the young woman found all the things I needed quickly.
Would you please clarify the term “wait until oil paintings are thoroughly dry before varnishing. It used to be approximately 1 year, is that the norm using Winsor Newton paints in current times?
Hi Virginia,
For oil paints, you are correct on the time for them to fully cure before varnishing being approximately 1 year, however, if you wish to varnish it sooner, I would suggest using Gamvar instead. With Gamvar you only have to wait until the paint has fully hardened in the thickest spots (you can test this with a finger nail to see if it leaves an indent in an inconspicuous spot), and then you can apply the Gamvar on top. It's unique from other varnishes, as it allows the paint to continue to cure after it has been applied.
