I love it!

I love it. I've seen some questions about using this on the high gloss rags such as Hahnemuhle's Baryta, but if you are patient and apply it in thin coats, it works brilliantly leaving the integrity of the glossy print in tact.

Really fabulous paper for making books.

I love this paper for making books and just used it for a book edition of 50. It is the second time using this paper to make a photo book.

Short-shipped

Ordered two cans, was charged for two, but only one was received. Short-shipped.

Good for matte prints

Works very well to protect matte ink jet prints from scuffs and from ink transferring to adjoining prints. Do not use Krylon sprays for this, they are very poor and damage prints, but the Hannehemule spray is great.

Easy, effective protection of matte prints

Purchased to provide protection to matte prints. It went on in two easy coats and did its stated purpose of protecting my photos without changing their appearance. The only downside is the smell of the solvent, but I haven't come across any water-based products that do the same job.

Easy to use

Works exactly as described. Smooth application, dried cleanly in a short amount of time. Definitely recommend for Hahnemuhle rice paper.

Not worth the money!!!

I print my own photo artwork and have used 2 cans so far and cannot tell a difference that it makes in scratching the fine art papers from Hahn. I have used as directed and even sprayed half of the paper, let dry and still produced the same scratches as on the side that wasnt sprayed.

Good stuff but its not a spray - just a 1 liter plastic bottle with a screw on top.

Great protective spray

The spray goes on even if applied properly. Spray mist seems to be finer than other similar products that have been used.

All of my prints get a treatment now

It takes a little practice to use the right amount and not leave any lines but it is as advertised, a protective spray that helps to prevent scratches and to protect from waterdamge. All of my prints get a treatment now

Great protection

I use this spray to protect my watercolor giclee prints. It does a great job without any discoloration.

Great overall archival spray

I like this spray as it is consistent, non yellowing and does not change texture of the final print. However, this may be a negative as I would like a glossy sheen. Wish Hahnemuhle offered such a critter. Have not had the problem of clogging as others have reported.

High Quality, Even Coating

I really loved SureGuard Luster (discontinued) and liked the textural sheen of it. I find the Hahnemuhle Protective Spray is a very fine high quality substitute for my fine art photography prints. Have only used it for coating matte papers so far but it coated very evenly with no effect on images. I use the Epson Sure Color 600 Printer and a variety of fine art papers. Am pleased with no problems.

Hahnemuhle Protective Spray protects digital Fine Art prints from external influences. The aerosol spray lays like a fine film on the paper, without changing the paper structure. It fixes colors of pigment-and dye ink and prevents an eventual color fading also the intensity and the high brilliance of the colors stay permanently. The coating increases the abrasion resistance of Fine Art papers, so the risk of fingerprint marks and scratches are reduced. Protective Spray makes the sealing of the surface water repellent. The improved formulation is fast drying and virtually odourless. A yellowing of the print due to the spray is not possible.

Features
• No yellowing
• Easy to apply
• Virtually odourless
• Permanent stay of intensity and the high brilliance
• Fast-drying
• Protects and seals the print
