Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
UV varnish is sunlight resistant!. You would use it if your product was in the sun!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

You use this to highlight one spot on your job, ie a photograph or company logo, to make it stand out against a matt background, it's particulary effective if laid on top of the background colour to give a sort of invisible, yet visible logo!. I've only used it professionally, and we send jobs away to be UV varnished, so I'm not quite sure of the process for applying!. You could google that thoughWww@QuestionHome@Com
