Thank you for this most excellent presentation! It's one of my top three favorite ones so far. Eric was amazing! Need to see more from him.

What do you mean by “first layer” and “final varnish?” Mentioned around the 15:30 mark.

[@RublevColours]

Two layers of varnish can be applied instead of a single layer. If you decide to apply two varnish coats, it is advantageous to apply two different varnishes. For example, you can apply an acrylic varnish as the first layer and then a Regalrez varnish as a second layer or final varnish.

@@RublevColours thank you!

Hi again, I've got a few follow-up questions: on your site, your Conservar Isolating/Finishing Varnish "can be used both as an isolating varnish and a final varnish." Would it be OK to do 2 layers of Conservar Isolating/Finishing Varnish? Or would you recommend doing a layer of Conservar Isolating/Finishing Varnish first then a layer of Conservar Finishing Varnish as the final varnish? Why is it advantageous to apply two different varnishes, and are any of your varnishes incompatible with each other?

[@RublevColours]

@@NikitaCoulombe Two layers of Isolating / Finishing Varnish is fine. Or two different varnishes in two layers. There are no incompatibilities. For more questions please read our blog or call.

So confusing What about polyurethane? I appreciate the lady being a little more discrete.

[@RublevColours]

Polyurethanes yellow and are not suitable for varnish.
