= SEALING / VARNISHING =

To seal an alcohol ink piece I use a museum quality spray by Krylon: Kamar Varnish. Unlike most spray varnishes and acrylic sprays, it will not react in any way with the alcohol inks ... so, even the most tiny details will remain crisp and unchanged when sprayed.
🔹Here is a link: http://amzn.to/2jGh3KO

AFTER using Kamar, you may choose to add a layer of UV protection to help with possible fading down the line : https://amzn.to/2JisymO

If done on something paper thin like photo paper, Duralar, or Yupo, or his new Craft Plastic, the piece can be framed under glass or acrylic without being sprayed... especially if the painting will not be exposed to direct sunlight. Always avoid placing any alcohol ink work in an area where it will get direct sunlight. Though Kielty Inks are less vulnerable, many inks will fade in the sun... eventually.
