Drum roll, (pause) Cymbals! READ THE ARCHIVES!
Seriously, this has been discussed several times before. There is a good search
engine tied to the archives of this list that can be found at
http://www.listquest.com/lq/search.html?ln=altphotoprocess
In summary, I (and others) have found mineral oil to work well (you can get it
almost totally dry). Some were debating the merits of sunflower oil vs. cannola
oil. Judy prefers paraffin wax (intended for canning) but I found that it
showed streaks in my prints.
Take a look at the archives. You'll find a wealth of information

Subject: Desk top paper negatives - wax?
Hi,
What sort of wax have people forund to be best for making paper negatives
transparent? I've tried cooking oil, wiped nearly dry, but of course it tends to
make a hell of a mess on the cover glass!!!
Thanks,
Chris
