Although in the case of Humbrol Clear Gloss you need about six...

It was difficult (and expensive) to get in th UK a while back so wasn't an option then. I don't know if the situation has chnaged now.

I relied totally on Dullcote spray but I’m told it isn’t on sale anymore, in the U.K./EC at least. My last supply was courtesy of GM. I suspect I’ll try W&N Matt brush-on when the can splutters it’s last.

In terms of spray I understand temperature (do it in the warm) and giving it a good shake are helpful, although Dullcote seemed immune to any handling errors.

Giving it a good shake is essential for most of us at our age...

So is doing it in the warm

Oh, we were talking about varnishing? Sorry, just read Vexillia’s article, it’s the cannine’s gonads.
