Digital BW, The Print

Permajet also makes a protective coating that will not change the image if
sprayed very lightly using several passes. Also will not change the
"mattness" of the surface. I've used it with Hahnemuhle and Archival Matte
postcards and it's held up well in adverse conditions. Available from Pro4
Imaging, 21 Spragg Circle,  Markham, Ontario L3P 5W1  EMAIL:

There is also a US distributor in Salt Lake City. Try Permajet on Google.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Preserving inkjet prints


  I have tried and experienced the same results with spray coatings and
  am surprised that there are no mainstream products made specifically
  for ink prints.

  The RC papers are quite durable on their own.I have a luster color
  print tacked to the outside of my house for 4 months exposed to rain
  and sun and, to date, no change. A matte print in on the sun porch
  has also not changed.

  Glass is definitely not my first choice. However, in many situations,
  it is a must and is required for exhibits and galleries. For
  permanent display, if your matting is not all well glued together, it
  will eventually warp outward without glass to keep it flat.

  The out-gassing is still an issue. Even forced dried prints (2200)
  have shown a slight but acceptable deposit after several months.
