RE: Picture on metal

Mmm,...That's a good question. When I make Polaroid transfers on to
watercolor paper or Plexiglas I usually seal them with a standard clear
lacquer spray paint. Someone on the list like Galina will have a better idea
about what to use on metal. http://www.galina.no/

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

What kind of lacquer? I'm also interested in placing lifts on metal.
