Pro Art Artworks fixative

2004-01-14 by njfranknj

I tried some of the above fixative with color and B&W prints on Epson 
Enahnced Matte and Premium Glossy Photo papers. Three light coats in 
quick succession were invisible except along the border with uncoated 
area of each print, except on the matte paper, which was totally 
invisible. When rubbed by hand, the uncoated part of each glossy 
image got burnished, but the coated area remained unchanged - this is 
what made it easiest to see the difference between the two areas. 

No increased darkening of blacks was noted and the film was not 
yellow on white paper.

Anybody have any other info on this product or interested in running 
some environmental degradation tests? Running a search of the 
archives for the "Subject" line above returned no info.
