And what's worse is that, the brand has discontinued that product!
I went on Google to search for alternatives. After much anticipation, I found that Future and Varathene were commonly mentioned for use in bead finishes. And whatever I need to buy has to be acrylic based. Such products can be found in DIY, homefix stores.
I hop on down to the nearby store and found Ronseal's polyurethane varnish for wood. It is good, but it takes a longer time for my beads to dry completely. I first tested on my own set of beads and it only starts to dry 4 hours later. And for this reason, I had to push a day back for mailing of beads to my customers! >.< This brand of varnish should work just as fine. =)
Here's showing you the custom made beads for 2 lovely ladies (I have used Ronseal for the below sets)

And another customer who wants a remake of the beads that I sold her.
Hi I'm a polymer clay fanatic too and your beads are pretty! :) Ooh I've heard about using wood varnish for polymer clay, but didn't know if it was safe to use ronseal! Can I know what brand and type are you currently using?? Will appreciate it very much! :)

Hello Jocelyn,
sorry for the late reply as I didn't set the comments notification on! >.<
I'm using Ronseal as per blog entry! And I remember seeing the word 'Satin' on it. :)
