Choosing

Best for — and the alternatives

Clear Acrylic is best for

  • An everyday scenic clear coat and sealer
  • Adjusting the sheen of scenic finishes
  • A glaze base for washes and translucent layers
  • Water-based scenic workflows

If you need more durability

Clear Acrylic is the standard scenic clear. For floors, exterior or high-wear work, step up to:

  • Premier Clear → high-durability, UV-stabilised clear
  • CrystalGel → clear + flexible over foam / synthetics
  • FlexCoat → flexible coating for soft foam
The hard numbers

Coverage varies with surface porosity and how thickly it's applied; two thin coats generally protect better than one heavy coat.

Coverage — a guide only
Approximate coverage: 300–400 sq ft per gallon (≈ 28–37 m² per 3.79 L).
Coverage figures are approximate and quoted under ideal conditions. Every project, surface and material is different — actual coverage varies with the substrate and its porosity, the number of coats, any dilution, and how the paint is applied. Treat these figures as a guide only, not a guarantee. For a large job, buy a little extra or contact us before ordering.
