Acrylic varnishes
Varnishes for acrylic come in two main types, acrylic based, which can often be used as a medium too, or solvent based. The main difference is that a solvent based varnish can be removed (albeit painstakingly). Although varnishing is not absolutely necessary it gives the slightly porous surface of the paint protection against dust and dirt. It can also be used to give uniform sheen to the surface.
