Rosco Clear Acrylic Glazes are versatile acrylic mediums that can be used to protect painted finishes, provide additional strength and adhesion to scenic paints or to create transparent glazes.

Used as a topcoat, Clear Flat and Gloss provide a durable finish to protect your painted scenery from incidental abuse. Used on a stage floor, clear acrylic Glazes protect a paint treatment from basic wear and tear, as well as providing the desired finish; flat, gloss or a mixture of the two giving the scenic artist complete control over the depth of the finished paint treatment. Clear Acrylic does not provide the same protection as a urethane finish. If you need a hard protective finish to protect against moving scenery and excessive abuses, use Clear ColorCoat or Premiere Clear.

Added to paint, Rosco Clear Acrylic Glazes will increase the adhesion and flexibility of the mixture. Rosco Clear Acrylic Glazes are compatible with all Rosco Scenic Paints, and many other water based or latex paint formulations. (Always test for compatibility with an untried combination.)

Finish:
Flat/Matte or Gloss
Solvent:
Water
Binder Type:
Vinyl acrylic
Dilution:
Always dilute at least 1:1 with water. Failure to dilute Rosco Glazes may caused the medium to cloud over as it dries.
Surface Preparation:
Surfaces should be clean, dry and free from dirt and grease. If applying over a painted finish, always test before hand for compatibility and adhesion. Allow paint treatment to dry 24 hours before top coating with Clear Acrylic Glazes.
Application:
Apply by brush, roller, or spray gun. Do not apply a heavy coat. To build up a more durable finish, apply several thin coats, allowing each to dry thoroughly between applications. Failure to do so may cause the finish to cloud over while drying.
Application on back drop:
When treating a back drop, use a hudson sprayer to apply a uniform, thin coating so the painted muslin will remain flexible.
Film Thickness:
1:1 Dilution=1 mil. Dry Film
Coverage:
1:1 Dilution= approximately 600 sq. ft. per gallon (56 sq. m. per 3.79L), depending on substrate, application tool and film thickness.
Dry Time:
At 75°F (24°C.) Dries to the touch in approximately 30-45 minutes. Can be re-coated in 1-2 hours. Clear Acrylic Glaze has a milky appearance when wet but will dry clear. DO NOT USE HEAT OR FORCED AIR TO ACCELERATE DRY TIME AS CLOUDING MAY OCCUR.
Clean-Up:
Soap and water.
Shelf Life:
Minimum 24 months when stored in a temperature controlled environment.
Caution:
Do not apply when surface or air temperature is below 50°F (10°C). Protect against freezing. Avoid prolonged contact with skin or breathing of spray. Do not take internally. Use with adequate ventilation. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

Pandemic Availability Notice

Please Note: Due to unprecedented raw material and component shortages for finished goods throughout our industry, lead times for items that aren't currently in stock are longer than normal and cannot be guaranteed at present. Equipment needed by a firm date must be noted at time of order. While VLS cannot guarantee delivery by those dates, we will work with our suppliers to do everything possible to meet deadlines. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

Same Day Shipping Cutoff time
 
(Due to Pandemic-related availability issues, this policy is currently suspended)

Online orders received by noon Eastern time typically ship the same day. If your delivery due date is critical please note your due date in the order messages at checkout, and then contact us.

Why Noon? Well, while we stock quite a few items in our warehouse, many items we have dropshipped by our vendors. They need time to process the order, so to ensure that we can get the order to the vendor and give them enough time to ship it out the same day, we need to get the order to them as early as possible in the day.

Shipping Rating

Please also note that the shipping rates for many items we sell are weight and dimension based, as this is the method that FedEx and UPS use to rate the package's cost to ship.

Returns Policy

We understand things happen and items occasionally need to be returned. To make things as hassle-free as possible, we have dedicated pages about our Returns Policy (what’s eligible to be returned) and our Return Process (how to go about returning eligible items)
