Hi Mike,

I use GamVar, and really like it. It comes in a cystalline form that you mix with some sort of solvent (don't have the box in front of me) and shake periodically until they dissolve. Once you prepare the solution, it must be used within 30 days. I usually wait until I have a few canvases ready to go in order to make best use of the batch.

The best way I can describe the finish is "sparkly". It's very similar (to my eyes) as Liquin, not too shiny, not too matte. Its really very nice.

Hope this helps.
