Well I´ve finished some oil paintings and I´ve tried to varnish with a material that is used to varnish wood, I guees that I´ve made a mistake and even damaged the painting! mmm but I do not want to do it anymore so I need your help about it.
What´s the ideal method to varnish a work? How much time does it takes in order to be able to varnish it? which varnish is better to be used?
one of the problems that I found is that the vanish seems tro dry by layers, so is lefting behind a lot of patches, and spots...
Thank you, probably with your help me and other will not destroy the paintings anymore!
