Umm I'm not sure about anyone else here but
going around and spraying cels with 'fixative'
probably wouldn't stop the 'cel death' process.
Alot of cel decay has to do with the elements,
but I'm fairly sure that the paints themselves
have a life span. Remember animation cels
weren't made for collectors. They were made to
last through a quick shot of the camera, and
that was all. Cel-Vinyl (the paint they use to
make most animation cels) wasn't made to produce
artistic masterpieces so its' durability through
time probably won't last forever no matter what
you do. But maybe someone on here can answer
you better than I can. =D |
