When considering matte vs gloss varnish, the choice depends on your personal preferences and the specific needs of your artwork. One of the biggest issues I have with gloss varnish is that it can create glare and reflections that may be distracting or undesirable, especially if your artwork will be displayed in a brightly lit area. Make sure you keep your hands oil/grease free and work in a dust free environment away from lint or pet hairs!

If you want to add an even greater level of sensory effect to your packaging, consider raised UV coating . In many cases, especially if your product isn’t being handled a lot, varnish is a much more economical way to add a layer of basic protection to your product without investing in the higher cost of laminates. For example, if you’re using oil paints, a gloss varnish may be necessary to protect the painting from cracking over time. It can be particularly effective for pieces that have a lot of texture or detail, as it won’t detract from the intricacies of the work.
