 A photo of the benefits of varnishing paintwork.

The lettering on this Syphon Van was protected by a coat of varnish.

Ultra violet has eaten away the gloss of the paint and altered the colour. 

Always a good call to Varnish over new paint, one  problem is seeing where you have where the varnish has been applied, it is hard to see gloss over gloss.
