  • Can you use vanish over a glazed painting? Are do you even need it?

  • @c2mz Yes, it is a good idea to use a removeable varnish over your glazed painting. Glaze is permanent. The varnish will protect your glazed surface and can also be removed for cleaning and revarnishing to keep your painting looking great for years to come.
