Re: [Digital BW] Re: MIS-FSN + Kamar varnish

You should be able to find the Krylon Kamar locally in any art/craft 
store.  I don't know what the best spraying technique is, but I just 
lay my print on a flat surface, spray with overlapping strokes from 
left to right keeping the spray at a 45 degree angle to the print 
surface, wait 5 min, rotate the print 90 degrees, repeat the spraying 
procedure, and leave to dry in a dust free area.
