hello!
i'm looking to do some decoupage onto ceramic tiles for use as drink coasters...and just off a trip to michael's, i was a bit overwhelmed by the dizzying array of varnishes and lacquers available, and the lack of instructions on each.
does anyone have experience with a particular brand of varnish/lacquer (preferrably satin or matte) that doesn't dry sticky, doesn't alter the color of the paper beneath it, doesn't leave brush strokes on the surface, and is fairly liquid-safe? i'm not looking for anything dishwasher-safe; but something that can handle drink condensation and a light cleaning. i really don't want to have to resort to a pourable resin if i can help it...

thank you in advance!
