Best Brand of Workable & Finishing Spray Fixatives?
Since I haven't bought any type of sealer since my early 20's when I was trying to seal stuff I'd done in high school, I'm not up on what works best anymore.
Your thoughts and advice please on what works best with graphite or Prismacolor?
Thanks a bunch!

Re: Best Brand of Workable & Finishing Spray Fixatives?
I use Kamar spray and I get it at Wal-mart it is about $7.00 a can but it lasts a long time. I have sprayed several large canvases and other pictures done on art paper and I still have over half of a can. You can get it in matte or gloss or semi gloss and it is completely wipeable after it dries. Non yellowing too. I hope this helps.

Thanks Kute!
I'll look for it in Hobby Lobby or Micheals in Tulsa next trip in. The Walmarts near me don't carry any at all. 
Hugs,

Back at school we used to use Aquanet Hairspray but I don't think I'd use that on anything you really cared about. I haven't done anything smudgy in so many years that it's never come up. Thanks for the tip, Kute. I've been thinking I'd like to try working with chalk and charcoal again.
Everyone has a photographic memory, it's just that some of us don't have any film.
