A number of years ago, my daughter gave me a watercolor she found & liked. Personally I wasn't impressed but accepted the gift, hoping it might grow on me. I hung it but after a couple months my eyes came to rest on it & realized that it was fading from view. While I have done some of my own watercolor, it has never captured my heart. Your channel popped up after watching another apply varnish to his work. Never knew it was a thing!

Wow!!! Thank you so much. I am a not so young lady who just started painting and fell in love with watercolors. I will purchase all three. Have you used the gel?
@oOstoneyOo

Yes I have used the gel and it works very well. Just remember to use enough product to create a thin layer covering the painting and don't over work it

I started using fountain pens several months ago without thinking about my current inks being water resistant. For my regular journal and other things that is fine. However, I have a separate journal that has followed the pandemic. I have three books that are fine but my fourth book has regular fountain pen ink. Could I use one of these sprays on the pages that have water soluble inks?

Yes. As always test a small area first or create a test piece.

Can we use Golden Archival Varnish gloss spray on paper to seal Charcoal drawing? If yes, please suggest how to do it. If no, please suggest appropriate products to seal my drawing.

It is possible. Start with the can far away for the first coat. Let dry completely and then do a second coat with the can a little closer. Test this method first on a charcoal drawing you're not real fond of

Hello! :) I make cards and color my stamped images with watercolor pencils, and I worry the colors will fade from sunlight. If I varnish the stamped images, will it save them from fading from sunlight?

You can check the lightfastness of the pigments you're using. This will tell you how susceptible they are to fading. Any varnish with UV protection will help with this

Can you brush on the Golden Varnish without doing anything to a well dried watercolor painting? Meaning, the watercolor won’t activate?

Yes but be careful not to scrub up any pigments

How do you varnish watercolor canvas pad sheets to use for sewing projects? What would hold up for use as a purse for instance? Is gel medium pliable enough it won't crack? Looking for best option. Thank you!

Wont the liquid Golden’s stuff reactivate the watercolor paint?

Yeah it can. If you're careful and use enough it's not a problem. It's pretty thick and viscous so it creates a thin buffer

It can if you don't use enough or scrub too hard with a brush

You cannot get some of the fixatives without paying extra for ground shipping.
