Moab Master, Les Picker, demonstrates how to use Moab Desert Varnish to protect your inkjet prints from scuffing, scratches and fingerprints.
The spray is 100% invisible and has no sheen whatsoever. There are sprays on the market that do this, but we decided it was better to leave the visible look of the print as-is.
When should you use it?
You can technically spray a print within 15 minutes after the print comes out of the printer, however I would wait a day. Pigment inks have a glycol that needs to evaporate 100%, and 99% of it is gone within a few minutes of printing. It is that last 1% that I would like to be sure about. The spray dries very very quickly, like 20 minutes. I would print, let sit for a day, spray, package up later that day. That means one day after your print is printed.
