Giardini Clear Glossy Top Coat

Giardini Clear Glossy Top Coat

Made in Italy, the Giardini clear glossy top coat is used as the the final layer on colored and fashion paints. The clear top coat has two main purposes: 1) as a clear glossy finish on the leather edge, and 2) as a protective layer against the environment such as UV rays that can fade colors over time.

The protective clear gloss can be applied by hand or machine. It is an extremely elastic product as has a little risk of cracking over time. This product is made from several hybrid resins that provides it with high gloss and protective characteristics.
