Creating Tinted Varnishes
Guild Lane guilding enamels have incredible coverage, however for some projects you may prefer a more sheer finish. You have 2 options to acheive this -
1) You can add a little water to your guilding enamel to make it thinner and more translucent. We recommend that you add no more than 10% water.
2) You can mix our guilding enamels with the Guild Lane Clear Coat to create a custom metallic varnish. We recommend using satin or gloss as these will have the reflective quality required to enhance the metallic effect. Whereas, the matte clear coat would cancel out the metallic qualities, keeping the colour but dulling the sheen and sparkle.
