Good morning folks,
I'm carving a small rig of hollow cedar black ducks, painted with tube oils. My carving/paining mentor uses Winsor & Newton satin spray varnish as a finish coat over all of his birds.The finish gives the birds a slight sheen.
Having thought for years that all decoys should have an absolutely flat finish, I'm struggling with the decision to spray them with the varnish.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Matt
