pretty much to plan, to be honest, the one thing i would say is a potential down fall is putting too much matt coat on, because it is clear and is 'glossy in appearance ' when it is wet after application there is a risk you can over do it - obviously you want a uniform even coverage and even though you have thinned the varnish there is a risk you flood any intricate areas....., i suppose it is like applying a fine thin coat of colour, but you dont want to apply a thick coat and ' obscure the detail' under a thickish coat of varnish so give it a try on an older model first and ensure the results are what you want....

good luck
