SENNELIERD'artigny Oil Pastel Sprayfix 400Ml

I used this to seal an oil pastel I've been working on. Worked perfectly. Does need to be used outside due to how strong that smell is. I would recommend and will be buying this again in the future.

Great product. Dries as quickly.

Thin layered sheen to make oil pastel painting look nice and helps doesn’t smear. Smell was not too strong but still have to use it for outside. Runs out rather quickly. Wish cheaper.

this is amazing for preserving oil pastels since they never dry, but be careful to use multiple thin layers and distance the can from the paper otherwise it will create water droplets that ruin your art

This seem to lay down and work well it is subtle and beautiful. It is expensive but I think it is worth it. I drew with oil pastels on thank you cards and mailed them off and I understand they arrived unscathed and intact. Doesn’t seem to skew color or value. Can’t speak to archival quality at this point. Really like though.

I recently started working with oil pastels and needed something to stop the smudging. This spray works very well to stop smudging and the transfer of oil pastels. I would recommend spraying this outside it in a spray booth because it has a very strong smell. It’s very easy to use just spray is sweeping motions across surface. I noticed it’s necessary to do 2-3 coats to fully lock in the color. The texture of the oil pastel changed a little bit but the overall color and appearance stays the same.

I've never used this before, and I painted a 22" round painting. I was nervous about applying it at first, but it went on perfectly and leaves a satin finish. I put 3 light coats on, and I can touch the oil pastel without it smearing or getting on my hands.

I purchased this for my higher end art projects as recommend by another professional artist. Also, for use on the Sennelier oil pastels themselves, as I read that other fixatives did not do well on sennelier oils.Strangely, there is no mixing ball inside the can, but this is my first can and don't know if that is the way they are or not.It sprays on just fine, it takes a few layers, but the end result is suitable for preservation.
