Pastel Fixative
Posted by Steve Abbott on Saturday, January 18, 2003 at 23:05:33
Hi,

I have been trying to make my pastels stay put after finishing them. I have tried using expensive fixatives such as Lascaux-fix and NOTHING holds my pastels in place. I have looked at professional pastels in my local art gallery and they appear to contain a heavy-duty fixative on them. In fact, you can see that they sparkle under the light. I want mine to stay put like those that I've seen in art galleries. Will someone PLEASE tell me the secret? Thanks for any help.
