Garet, if you tried two or three coats of Liquitex acrylic matte medium at
the high dilution of 1:10 on BFK Rives there might not be much staining, yet
the surface wouldn't have a plastic slickness. Some of my students have
sized paper this way with good gum printing results. The image formation is
slightly different than with hardened gelatin - it dries like an extremely
miniature mud flat and pigment collects in the cracks but releases in
highlight areas where you want it to.
