Digital BW, The Print

Ok - I can tell you then that Lyson Print Guard will disintegrate a print
even with fogging.  I have tried misting in the spray, spraying with the
print flat and with the print hanging.  No joy.  The reaction (on MIS
pigment inks) was amplified if they were coated with gloss optimiser.  I
have several cans of the stuff (unused) in my closet and if anyone in the UK
wants it they should contact me off-list.  I still think some sort of
printer applied lacquer is what we all need for protective coatings that are
water, dust and fingerprint proof for ideal display without glazing.
