Don't they make flat, or matte varnish? Maybe it's just my imagination.
Is it that you like the flat look? I've always liked that rich, juicy look you get in the final varnish. When I'm doing a painting that goes on for days, I enjoy givng it its daily spritz of retouch varnish so I can see all those values getting rich and jumping back into place. Again, that's just me.
Beyond finding a "dull" varnish, I don't know what else to do.
