SFX-31270 Fixative Spray, milk casein, Not Assigned, 12 oz Bottle

It's so far the best I got for dry medium.. loved it .

This is a great product. I don’t use the spray nozzle it comes with, instead I put it in a misting bottle for better results. No worrying about drips or sputters.

La mejor alternativa para evitar los aerosoles y fijar los trabajos al pastel. Afecta levemente los colores al igual que todos los fijadores en aerosol con la ventaja que no respirarás gases nocivos. El precio es elevado a comparación de un aerosol convencional o igual precio que un aerosol de marca muy reconocida pero creo que el hecho que puedas cuidar tu salud usando este fijador que no es tóxico justifica el precio.

A really great way to fix watercolor and pencil drawings and not toxic like other aerosol sprays.

It will fix your artwork but you pay the price of having the looks of your artworks altered. You will have a shiny layer of gloss over your artwork. I used this on my oil pastels and as you can imagine it's Oil pastel so the liquid will stay on top of the artwork it will never combine or be absorbed into the artwork. It will just sit on top till it can dry which will take forever. You may not notice as HUGE of a problem if your artwork is pencil on paper or a different type of medium but on OIL PASTEL you will have problems using this fixative. The spray nozzle is SO SO bad that it leaves HUGE droplets of different sizes on your work. It literally is like a showerhead style spray. Since oil pastel has a slippery surface some droplets will gather together and form literal tiny puddles. You will have sections with puddles, sections with large or small uneven droplets and or sections with nothing. It's a total disaster. It will also take forever to dry and using hairdryer will dry it quicker but you risk blowing the droplets together into a puddle just total disaster. You also get droplet water marks on your artwork. This spray is seriously a mission impossible. You will be spraying away 5% of the bottle trying to get the whole artwork covered. waiting forever trying to spray it a 2nd time 3rd time. It's terrible. I have ruined 2 artwork trying to use this fixative and I conclude you cannot use it on oil pastel artwork. You have to buy a different bottle to put this solution in or it will never work. So be prepared to invest in a different/better spray bottle that can do ultra fine mist if you're going to use this product. Or it will totally fail you.

Ive being using W&N fixative for sealing charcoal, its ok but cant use inside as the fumes are terrible. Found this, did all the reviews on line and it really works on charcoal. Spits a bit, but doesn't damage anything…. And its charcoal ok ! So if your looking to fix charcoal in your studio and be able to live long enough to see the results… this is the stuff !
