which varnish over Valejo painted custom decals ?

[Merlin]

Hi,

have made some decals with masks and airbrushing the Valejo Model colour over existing decal to edit the artwork.

I now have areas of colour almost 3D, given the amount of paint required to kill the artwork underneath. Now I need to seal the painted parts and try and mellow in the 3D effect of the paint, and also improve on what was a very thin varnish over the original ink anyway.

I dont want the varnish I choose to react to any water when I apply the decal, I also dont want it to react to the Valejo. I may well use Klear to go under the decal, .

 

What varnish should I use, hand painted by the way to get the correct edge !

 

Acrylic or enamel ?

Always uneasy over idea of enamel onto acrylic. acrylic went down a few hrs ago and no time to allow for total curing.

Microscale liquid decal film hand painted will seal the inks and paints..
