Use it for the media and objects listed by Pintyplus, and test the complete artwork first. Paper, pigments, binders and previous treatments can respond differently.

Use as a clear final fixative on compatible pencil, graphite, crayon and ink work after a sample test confirms the desired result.
Watercolour and selected objects
Pintyplus also lists watercolour work, adhesive letters, photographs, maps, photocopies and ceramics among the intended applications.
Test before treating the complete artwork
The manufacturer recommends a trial on a sample or fragment to prevent incompatibilities. A fixative is a coating, so confirm appearance and compatibility on the exact medium and support before applying it across an original piece.
