Print Shield protects your prints from water and light!
Why finish you prints?
Unlike traditional photography where a gelatin emulsion protects the image, ink jet papers are porous like a sponge, even after the ink has been applied. In order to protect the image over time, a coating is needed to seal the print.
WATER RESISTANT TEST
A very popular OEM Canvas was tested for water resistance. The image was halved, then mirrored. The right half was sprayed with 3 light coats of PremierArt™ Print Shield. The image was "cured" for 24 hours before water testing. The following water resistant tests were conducted:
A: 3 drops* of water for 45 seconds, then whipped away with a sponge.
B: Moist sponge with 3 passes
C: 3 drops* of water for 4 minutes then blotted with a paper towel.
* Drops were administered with a pipette. Approximate total volume is 0.13 ml.
The results are obvious. Print Shield will protect your canvas from incidental water contact.
