Question: 

Is this safe to use over metal guilding? Im about to attempt to faux gold leaf a ceiling and need a clear satin finish that will not tarnish the faux gold.

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

No, we wouldn't recommend this product for application in this scenario.

As an alternative, assuming the surface is prepared as detailed in the technical datasheeet, you could consider Polyvine Multi-Surface Lacquer, this will give a high quality finish to a choice of Gloss or Satin finish, whilst being water, stain and heat resistant.

Question: 

Good morning, I am looking for a heat resistant varnish for trays that have already been decoupaged, painted and varnished with non heat resistant varnish, would this product be the right one? Thank you. Dominique.

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

This product wouldn't be suitable for this application.

Assuming the substrate is prepared as detailed in the application instructions, we'd recommend Polyvine Multi-Surface Lacquer for this type of application.

This product is a hard, crosslinked acrylic with heat resistant properties, that is easy to clean down with a damp cloth, and popular for decoupage coasters. A small test sample would be recommended to ensure this is comaptible for full application.
