I can never get varnishing right. I strugled with gloss varnish and It's still not perfect. Now I have problems with flat varnish.
The picture shows an unfinished 1/48 figure. It has been painted with Tamiya XF-24 - a new bottle. The paint was shaken and stirred until my arm ached. It went on well but fried to a slight sliky-matt finish which is not right for RAF overalls. I therefore applied matt varnish which again I stirred and shook until Iwas blue in the face. The reults is an even glossier finish which the picture does not fully show.
Would some kind person please give me some step by step, fool proof instructions on how to get a totally matt finish.
Thanks
