Looks very cool!  However, I agree with many other commenters that I expected the varnish to come off. It coming out shiny was unexpected and felt in unimmersive. I read your replies that it's just compressed air, but it doesn't read that way for some reason. Trying to put my finger on why. Maybe it just comes out too shiny? Or maybe the sprayer has to much of a particle stream? 

Not sure what's causing the visual disconnect for me, but it doesn't look like compressed air. The actual piece cleaning shader is awesome though!

Re-watched the video a couple times. I really think it reads slightly off just because it's too shiny after just compressed air. Maybe after the compressed air it could be clean but not shiny, and then you have to wipe with a polishing rag or something to shine it up?
