Hi everyone
I'm about to buy some high-gloss painted figurines that I hope to render matt. Can anyone tell me the best way? Do I just spray matt varnish, or do I have to prepare the gloss surface in some way? Many thanks for any help.
Mike.

Hi Mike,
A spray is best. Just spray straight over the gloss, and leave to dry for 24hrs. I also suggest an acrylic, so there is less chance on damaging the gloss coat
