With my homemade projects, I always use spray varnish. And if I don't have the semi-gloss (or satin), I spray a coat of glossy and then, when it has dried completely, I spray a thin coat of matte varnish. It keeps everything much more liquid resistant.
@@rollingwiththebeard Well, it's a subjective matter... For my needs, the results are great! But it is up to many factors: how thick is the coat of varnish applied, the brand and quality of both the varnish and the original card, tiles or tokens... I prefer the semi-glossy or satin spray varnish, but I sometimes can't find it. So, matte over glossy it is. But always a very thin coat of matte just enough to diminish the glow... It is all trial and error...
@@rollingwiththebeard Unfortunately I can't help you at that... I'm from Brazil. The brands here definitely are different. And most certainly the quality of the varnishes there is better...
With cards being so pliable, I wonder how the paint would hold up through repeated shuffling. I'd also be interested to see how it affects (someone else's) tiles and boards.

@@caostt2k2 thank you for the comment! I've wondered how putting a matt or satin coat on top of a gloss would turn out?

@@caostt2k2 have you found some brands better than others? I was entertaining the idea of doing a video about different brands of clear coat on cards.

@@caostt2k2 thanks anyways! Game on!

Maybe I'll do a follow up video! I'll coat ALL the cards from a game and shuffle my brains out!
Wow love this. For science! 🤩
All in the name of Science! lol
