Coating with Glamour II Giclee Veneer, General Tips

To create the most consistent finish on your print, make sure you follow a few pointers:

1) Make sure you have about 30% water. (40% is a good dilution as well, but your gloss will slowly lessen with more water, and you can always coat twice.) A good way to prevent an inconsistent mixture of water and coating is to use hot water. Hot water will will make sure that the water is completely mixed into the coating.
2) Make sure you roll gently. The less pressure you apply on the roller, the less varnish squeezes out from the side of the rollers that create streaks.
3) Make sure you have a thick enough coating. To ensure that you have enough coating, I recommend pouring the Glamour II directly onto your print. You can pour 3-4 thin lines across your print. This also eliminates the process of having to re-dip your roller back into the tray.
4) Make sure you allow your print to sit even if you see light streaks or differences in thickness in coating. If the coat is thick enough, Glamour II will self-level.
