Hi,
I was just wondering if I could subsitute a matte finish with a matte varnish.......are they the same thing........becuase it says that it should be used on furniture......but would it look as good as a matte finish?

Probably not a good idea ... some varnishes would contain chemicals that would turn your model in a molten, blubbering mass of plastic.
Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

Unless you want to build scale targets "after the hit". Shermanfreak's right. Most varnishes are too "hot' for use on plastics or resins.
