400ml Fixative Oil Pastels D'Artigny Sennelier

This works and is simple and quick to use. It dried clear and didn’t alter the colours in my pictures. Using pads of art paper I now feel they are safe to carry around without fear of smudging. Use in a well ventilated room and give several light sprays.

I really like this fixative. I'm just starting to play with oil pastels and have some creamy ones that are very sticky on the surface of my sketchbook. This seals them perfectly. It needed a couple of coats, but there's now no transfer at all. Quite pricey but worth it I think!

Went on the reviews as first time of using fixative. True to its word. 3 light coats has sealed my picture perfectly

It sprayed easily and dried matt and clear which wz what I wanted@ Vety happy with the outcome.

Perfect for sealing oil pastel work. Dries completely in 5 minutes. No smudging afterwards.

I use Caran d'Ache exclusively in my art work. Oil pastels are tricky to protect and this product does the job. I always have this available.

Excellent product for fixing messy oil pastels

Arrived on time. It does exactly as it says on the tin. Fixed my oil pastel work brilliantly.

Exactement ce que je cherchais, fixe parfaitement mes pastels à l'huile, avec deux couches. Attention à bien doser, n'en mettez pas trop !

Ich habe viele Fixative ausprobiert, für Ölpastellkreiden funktioniert nur dieses hier. Das fixierte Bild bekommt einen leichten Glanz, der nicht stört und etwas an Ölgemälde erinnert. Farben werden minimal dunkler und kontrastreicher, aber nicht stark, für mich persönlich gerade so wahrnehmbar. Fixierte Bilder sind geschützt gegen Zerkatzen, Verschmieren, Staub und Abfärben. Man kann sie anfassen ohne Fingerabdrücke zu hinterlassen und ohne Farbe an den Fingern zu haben. Bei mehreren Schichten bleiben auch keine Farbreste mehr an den Fingern, wenn man über das Bild reibt. Weitere Schichten dunkeln die Farben nicht mehr nach, nur die erste. Leider ohne UV Schutz. Das UV Schutz Spray der gleichen Marke kann man separat darüber sprühen, nachdem man es gut trocknen gelassen hat.

Excellent, bien efficace pour fixer les bâtons à l’huile de Sennelier . J’aimerais pouvoir m’en procurer au Québec. Le transport est trop cher

Excelente producto

Works really well on my oil pastel drawings. It makes the surface more durable but this is not like armor. It'll keep the surface from smearing if something ribs against it but it is soft enough to rework or scrape the oil pastel underneath if you need to. If you put it on heavy I noticed some of the dark blue pigments in my Myungyo Gallery oil pastels "float" and separate out from others. The key to preventing that is very light coats. The fumes are such that I strongly prefer to spray a drawing with this outdoors. But it is not an instant asthmatic trigger for me, unlike some other spray fixes. It does not wrinkle the paper, unlike alcohol-and-casein based fixes. This along with the easier to deal with fumes makes it my favorite oil pastel fixative.
