I've had a play with the inkjet fixative spray today.
You may have missed the original thread ...
I bought a Pink Petticoat CD (which is basically line drawn images) with out thinking about how I would water colour images from a printer ... needless to say the lines of the drawings ran.
I read the PP blog and they mentioned Ghiant matt inkjet fixative spray but everywhere I looked on t'internet they were charging £5 plus for postage.
Finally found somewhere with free P&P and have bought a can.
I'm really pleased with the result.
It does smell very strong so it's definitely not a job to do around children or pets and open windows are a must.
I did it in another room with the window wide open and then left it there with the door shut for quarter of an hour.
I sprayed over the sheet and then back again but next time I'm going to try one pass of the spray as I think that might be enough.
It leaves the card quite gritty ... I used a smooth sheet of card so it was quite a difference ... but it works like a dream.
Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to the site that I bought it from ... please could someone let me know if I can.
Other wise I'm happy for anyone to PM me and I'll reply with the URL.
Lastly an apology ... I've replied to everyone so far apart from a lady called Sue ... I'm really sorry Sue I've accidentally deleted your message and can't remember your ID. Hope this post answers your questions but you're welcome to message me again if you would like to ask anything specific ... I'll be more careful this time
I'm off to buy "Does My Bum Look Big In This?"
