He could always try Gamblin's Cold Wax Medium...I don't know about protection or use on inkjet prints, but it's beautiful on pt/pd prints, although it's not my usual workflow.

I don't know.  I know he tried encaustic, but wasn't happy with that.  I've not heard of this renaissance wax, but I was wondering if you use it solely on vellum, and also if you use it mainly for the look it gives, or also as a protectant of sorts?  And what look does it give?
