STAEDTLER 8704 01 BK FIMO Clear Gloss Varnish for Polymer Modelling Clay - 35ml (Pack of 1)

great varnish for the polymer clay charms, gives that nice sheen to the finished product, easy to use, just paint on with a brush and hang to dry.

Great for my polymer clay projects.

I recently tried the STAEDTLER 8704 01 BK FIMO Clear Gloss Varnish for Polymer Modelling Clay, and I'm quite pleased with the results. The varnish added a beautiful glossy finish to my polymer clay creations, enhancing their overall appearance and giving them a professional look. The application process was straightforward, and the varnish dried relatively quickly without any noticeable streaks. My only minor concern was that I needed to apply multiple thin coats to achieve the desired level of glossiness, but the final outcome was worth the extra effort. The bottle's size is convenient and will likely last through several projects. Overall, this clear gloss varnish is a reliable option for adding a polished finish to polymer clay creations, and I would recommend it to fellow crafters seeking to elevate the aesthetic of their pieces. It is quite costly for the small pot you get.

I bought this together with the air drying modelling clay. I used this to varnish small items that I made using the fimo clay. It is a gloss varnish and adds a lovely look to the items that have been varnished. A little goes a long way and after varnishing all of our small items that we had made, it has hard to even see that we had used any varnish at all. I only applied one coat of varnish but you could use multiple layers and allow to dry between each coat. I am pleased with this varnish and the size is convenient. The lid seals tightly closed. As it is water based, it is also convenient to use this varnish on many other craft projects apart from using it with the modelling clay.

Goes a long way, not sticky at all. A life saver!

Good for clay leaves nice gloss

this varnish is prone to peeling off. its good for personal projects but not for professional use.

Mmmmkay. Let me explain this right here. My first pot I got was eaten by my little dog called Rosie. She ate right through the lid (didn't eat any gloss thankfully) and it spilled everywhere. HOT DAMN! So I had to get some more. I couldn't find anything cheaper than this. Fantastic price for the amount you get and it's going to last ages. I mean my first pot would have if the little doggie hadn't decided to make it her latest meal. Anyway! You can't find any gloss better or cheaper. Literally I looked everywhere for gloss and nobody else even does gloss for fimo. You can get this gloss for way more expensive prices but this is the same thing and cheaper. Hooray!

Es un buen barniz brillante que deja una capa dura y suave. Tengo que decir que no es súper brillante pero es lo que necesitaba. Para dar un brillo más o menos intenso suelo necesitar al menos 3 capas sobre la arcilla polimerica. Para evitar las burbujas recomiendo echar capas finas y de una sola pasada antes que intentar terminar deprisa ya que le quedan muchos desperfectos. En unos 20 min está seco al tacto y se puede echar otra capa pero endurece del todo en un día aprox. Pienso que es un poco caro para la cantidad pero en cada uso gasto muy poquito así que lo recomiendo

Facile da stendere sui pezzi creati per renderli lucidi e per proteggerli dall'usura del tempo

PARCEL ARRIVED DRIPPING ALL OVER OUT OF THE BOTTLE CAP. IT IS SO STICKY AND IT DOES NOT DO WHAT IT CLAIMS TO DO, USE CLEAR NAIL POLISH...SAVE YOUR MONEY WITH MY SHIPPING 3 OZ. CAME TO ABOUT $18.00. I COULD OF BOUGHT MOD PODGE AT THE dollar STORE, WOULD OF WORKED WAY BETTER, my use was to coat jewelery and paper beads, makes no difference to the look of the item

Tested about 9 glazes on baked polymer clay jewelry and this is my favorite. Doesn't leave streak marks, doesn't feel tacky when dry like a few of the others I tested.

Die Fimo-Lacke verleihen den fertigen Werkstücken Schutz, Schlagfestigkeit und ein gleichmäßiges Finish. Vor allem für Perlen war mir das einzelne Bepinseln immer zu langwierig, weshalb ich zunächst mit Sprühlacken herumexperimentiert habe (Acryl-, Alkyd- oder Nitrobasis). Diese werden jedoch alle nach einiger Zeit klebrig. Daher habe ich es schlussendlich doch mal mit dem original Fimo-Lack versucht. Sie sind wirklich einwandfrei geeignet, auch für Modellierkneten anderer Hersteller (also z. B. Premo oder Sculpey). Der Lack ist überraschend einfach und schnell aufzutragen. Er verläuft gut und und trocknet rasch, jedoch ohne dass man sich sonderlich hetzen muss. Kleine Patzer verzeiht er einem problemlos. Auch bereits lackierte Werkstücke dürfen noch einmal in den Ofen: 130 °C Backtemperatur übersteht er problemlos und fängt auch nicht an zu stinken. Der Lack ist zwar recht ergiebig, dennoch sind die kleinen Gebinde nicht ganz billig. Tipp: da ich mittlerweile vermute, dass es ein PU-Lack ist, könnte Parkettlack evtl. eine günstigere Alternative sein, die ich auch noch austesten werde. Ums Pinseln kommt man wohl leider nicht rum. ;)
