 Drying time required for applying varnish:
 Basically, oil paint is the slowest drying oil-based color compared to almost all other colors, so it takes at least 6-9 months for the color to dry completely before you can use varnish to avoid the solution dissolving into the paint and damaging your work. The safest time is 1-2 years for paintings with thick layers of oil paint. In special cases when you need to temporarily cover the painting to protect or create a glossy surface for the painting while waiting for the painting to dry for the next work - you can use the Retouching Varnish line. (Note that the painting must be dry for at least 1 month to use this product).
 Instructions for use:
 1. Choose a low-dust area to avoid dust sticking to the surface during the varnishing process on the work.
 2. Choose a brush of appropriate size for the painting.
 3. Stir the solvent well and pour out a sufficient amount, dip the brush evenly, then sweep a little onto another surface to avoid dripping.
 4. Apply varnish evenly over the painting surface in 1-3 thin coats instead of 1 thick coat. For areas that are not evenly covered, wait for the varnish to dry and apply a thin coat again.
 5. When finished, use a layer of plastic to cover the surface of the painting to prevent dust from sticking to the undried varnish layer. Let the varnish layer dry for 2 to 24 hours (depending on the product line) before displaying.
