Hahnemühle Art & Craft Varnish Matt 10640736
Professional water-based matte varnish developed to protect and enhance canvas inkjet prints. Designed specifically for use with Hahnemühle inkjet canvases, this ready-to-use varnish adds a protective matte finish while preserving the natural look and texture of the canvas surface.
Ideal for fine art, photography, and giclée canvas prints, this varnish increases durability, reduces unwanted glare, and helps extend the life of printed artwork.
Enhanced Protection & Lightfastness
Hahnemühle Matt Varnish increases the lightfastness of canvas prints and provides a protective barrier against external influences. Once applied, the surface becomes water-resistant, helping protect prints from moisture, handling, and environmental exposure.
The varnish also guards against fungal growth in high-humidity environments and helps prevent cracking, ensuring long-term stability of the canvas.
Reduces Glare & Preserves Detail
This matte varnish softens reflections and glare, making it ideal for gallery display and brightly lit environments. It enhances the appearance of pigment and Ultrachrome inks, preserving black depth and colour fidelity while maintaining a subtle, non-reflective finish with no visible residue.
Easy Application, Professional Results
Supplied as a ready-to-use mixture, the varnish is fast drying and easy to apply using a foam roller. The water-based formulation ensures low odour and simple clean-up, making it suitable for studio and production environments.
After drying, the varnish leaves nothing but a clear, even matte coating, preserving the visual integrity of the printed canvas.
