Some problems with matte coat and what I found worked to fix.

I actually sprayed in my basement last night while it was actively raining. They key if engaging in such heresy is to immediately set the figures up in front of a little heater fan to keep the air near the figures dry and toasty. Works like a charm.

I use hairspray, aquanet super hold. It has never let me down as a paint sealer and I can spray indoors. I have been using it for 30 years now.

And nice they are! Hairspray never wears out? Or maybe you just can't get them wet? Kind of curious about that.

Aquanet, huh?

Sheesh, I been buying enough my painting supplies from the cosmetics section, they're looking at me like I've been inspired by Caitlyn Jenner.

OK NeDzhoNikto -- that's funny and oh so contemporary.
