RE: [Digital BW] Spraying Prints?

> I was wondering what people use to spray their prints.

For matte prints I use Lascaux Fixativ.  It has the least impact on the
dmax, which is usually lowered by a light spray.  Three light coats of
Lascaux are usually invisible.  The art stores carry it.  It's used
frequently by pastel painters.

For glossy prints I like Premier Art Print Shield.  This solvent-based spray
does a good job of hiding bronzing, water-proofing, and extending life (due
to UV blockers).

The relatively good nozzles on the above two spray cans are among  the
features that distinguish them.
