Matt, Satin or Gloss Model Varnish?
Matt varnish reduces unwanted shine and is often selected for weathered or low-sheen finishes. The range includes Matt, Flat and Ultra Matt products, giving modellers several options to compare. Satin varnish creates a subtler sheen between matt and gloss, while semi-gloss products provide another intermediate finish.
Gloss varnish produces a polished surface and can be used during stages involving decals and washes as well as for the final appearance of a model. The best choice depends on the underlying paint system, preferred application method and finish required. Always follow the instructions for the specific varnish rather than assuming every product is interchangeable.

UV Cut Flat/Matt and UV Cut Gloss examples are also represented in the current range. Browse related Mr Hobby spray cans or compare the wider selection of modelling spray cans.

Choosing a Varnish for Your Scale Model
Consider the desired sheen first, followed by the application format and compatibility information stated on the product page. A matt, satin or gloss label identifies the intended finish, while terms such as spray, airbrush, Flat, Semi-Gloss or Ultra Matt help narrow the choice further.
Model varnish can be used to seal decals, protect weathering effects and provide the final clear finish on a completed build. Many modellers use a gloss coat before decals and washes, then apply matt or satin varnish after weathering to establish the final appearance.
