In a stroke of luck, my printmaker damaged one of my 60" prints while mounting it for a customer. The damage is slight, but it's unsellable. So I get to keep it. Happy days.
Since I don't have a budget for framing, it's going to hang directly. It's on dibond (aluminum laminate) and my printmaker is going to glue on a wood subframe so it can hang from a cleat on the wall.
This means there will be no glazing or laminate protecting the print. I'm wondering if there are any protective products that can be sprayed on, with minimal risk, archival detriment, or effect on the way the thing looks. The print is on Canson baryta gloss paper.
Thoughts or recommendations? I'd be spraying it myself, so a product that requires no skill or experience is much preferred.
