Cold Wax varnish does not provide the same level of protection from environmental damage as glass framing. The benefit is the matte appearance Cold Wax offers watercolor or gouache paintings versus glass framing.
Watercolor and gouache artists have reported using this technique with good success. However, we want to emphasize a disclaimer that once Cold Wax is applied to watercolor or gouache, attempting removal of the varnish with odourless mineral spirit has shown paint smearing or removal of pigment. Consider the use of wax varnish on these mediums to be non-removable.
