\"Krylon
Krylon Crystal Clear – satin spray finish<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Well, I finally got around to trying out the last hopeful contestant that I had around the house, in the search for a clear spray finish for my papier mach\u00e9 bowls.<\/p>\n

I tried out Krylon’s “Crystal Clear” finish, using the same kind of coverage as I had in the previous experiment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The results were disappointing, to say the least. I had thought the polyurethane and Rustoleum sprays were yellow. This was slightly more<\/em> yellow than the Rustoleum, and not much less so than the polyurethane.<\/p>\n

So much for crystal clear… maybe crystal that’s been sitting around in an attic for a few decades might look like this.<\/p>\n

The Rustoleum is looking pretty good now, for a gloss finish. For matte, the Krylon UV-Resistant seems to be the winner. You can barely tell that there’s a finish on it (and it’s two coats).<\/p>\n

These sprays may be fine over a colored surface, accounting for a slight yellow tinge, but I’ve got several bowls that are white. I’m not even sure if I feel comfortable with the Krylon matte for them. There’s still a subtle color shift, if you look closely (in person).<\/p>\n

As far as the finish goes, what is supposed to be “satin”, tends toward the glossy side. The intro photo was intentionally shot so you can get a sense of this.<\/p>\n
