Japanese: 印刷ワニス - いんさつワニス(英語表記)printing varnish
Printing varnish - Printing varnish (English spelling)
A general term for varnishes used as vehicles (binders) for printing inks. They are mainly made from linseed oil with the appropriate viscosity, but some also use tung oil or soybean oil as raw materials. They are numbered according to their viscosity, with the lowest viscosity being 00 or 0, the middle being 8, 7, 6, and 5, the highest being 4, 3, 2, and 1, and the hardest, used for intaglio printing, being called "gogai" or "extra." Nos. 3 to 5 are often used in letterpress and lithographic printing, but recent set inks for multi-color printing can be used without adjustment and use a synthetic resin type vehicle, so they are not used much anymore.

印刷インキのビヒクル (展色剤) に使用されるワニス類の総称。おもに亜麻仁油を適度の粘度にしたもので,きり油,大豆油などを原料に用いるものもある。粘度に応じて号数をつけているが,粘度の低いものから 00,0と呼び,中間のものを8,7,6,5,高いものを4,3,2,1,最も固い凹版印刷などに使用するものは号外などと呼んでいる。凸版や平版印刷では,3~5号をよく使うが,最近の多色刷りのセットインキは無調整で使えるようになっていて,合成樹脂タイプのビヒクルとなっているので,今ではあまり使用しなくなっている。
