| LYSON PRINT GUARD PROTECTIVE LACQUERS |
Print Guard spray renders an ink jet print more water resistant and increases light resistance.
The coating, which is non-toxic, is sprayed directly on to the image and then allowed to air dry.
Designed to provide a protective coating to images produced using water based ink jet inks,
drawing inks and water colors, Print Guard is a clear lacquer that, when applied to water soluble
images, greatly increases UV resistance to fading, increases rub resistance, and provides a
splash proof water resistance coat. Print Guard has the added benefit of eliminating ‘bronzing’ or
‘gloss differential’ effects that are prevalent when using pigment inks on gloss or luster papers.
The type of finish produced by Print Guard spray tends to mimic the base media that it is applied
to - gloss or luster papers still maintain a high gloss finish, where as matte or fine art media
absorb Print Guard into the surface to provide a flat matte finish.

The increase in fade resistance offered by Print Guard varies from ink type to ink type. With dye
based inks, the useful display life without noticeable fade can be increased by as much 100%
compared to an uncoated image. Even when applied to the latest pigment ink sets, such as
Epson Ultrachrome™, Print Guard increases fade resistance by more than double on some
papers and canvas. Print Guard is suitable for most types of ink jet media. A 400ml aerosol will
provide 2-3 protective coats on up to 20 8.5” x 11” images. Also available in bulk 5 liter bottles for
application by spray gun.

| PRINT GUARD BRUSH ON VERSIONS |
Print Guard brush on is a thicker version for application by brush, roller or high viscosity spray
equipment. Supplied in 1 liter cans, Print Guard brush on was primarily designed for use on fine
art papers and canvas although it works equally well on most media types. As well as providing
the same level of water protection and increased fade resistance as the spray version, Print
Guard brush on also significantly lifts the color of images produced on uncoated media.
Available in two finishes, gloss and satin, Print Guard lacquer is also supplied in two versions -
slow dry has a self leveling effect to provide a uniform coating, and fast dry which can be hand
embellished with brush strokes if desired. A thinner is available for the cleaning of application
equipment.
