I know I have seen various sprays for digital prints. What have people used that they consider excellent for color ultrachrome prints (Epson 2200)? Also, any experience or need for sprays on piezography prints (Epson 1280 with piezo inks)? Thanks. Mike

Hi Mike, I use Premier Art Print Shield spray om Epson Enhanced Matte, (it everso slightly adds a bit of dmax). Two coats, one after the first dries (15 minutes or so at room temp) On Velvet Fine atr paper I use Lascaux. Stiiiinky but no shine whatsoever, two coats, almost immediatly. Both applied after the prints have dried thoroughly, at least overnight, IMO.

Mike, My tests and Wilhelm's indicate the PremierArt Print Shield significantly extends the life of UC inks. However, on matte paper, it reduces the dmax. So, I use PremierArt on glossy paper only, and I use Lascaux Fixativ on matte paper, which will reduce dmax much less but also not give as much fade protection as the PremierArt spray. For PremierArt see www.ITSupplies.com. For Lascaux, see http://www.dickblick.com/zz217/14/products.asp?param=0&ig_id=4138. Hope this helps. Paul www.PaulRoark.com ___________________________
