Has anyone else experienced the Vallejo Matt Varnish Spray sometime being shiny in spots rather than matt?

This usually happens when it is too humid and you haven't shaken it enough, try at least 2 minutes and test it on something expendable first.

I've not used the Vallejo Matt Varnish Spray, although I have one ready to use, but, I ALWAYS spray Matt Varnish over Gloss varnish.
Humidity and temperature still need to be in the correct range though.

If you want a really effective Matt spray go for Windsor and Newton Professional.

Windsor and Newton is very good. Available from Blick Art Supplies.

Thanks.

I haven't used a spray varnish for years.
Too scared! I use brush only
