Breathe Easy, Create Freely
SpectraFix Degas Fixative is the artist-friendly solution for preserving your work without compromising your health or your studio environment. Inspired by the historic formula used by Edgar Degas, this non-toxic fixative contains only casein, water, and alcohol—making it safe for indoor use and ideal for artists with chemical sensitivities. No toxic fumes, no harsh odors—just a clean, effective seal that protects your art while keeping your colors vibrant.
Perfect for use with soft pastels, PanPastels, colored pencils, charcoal, chalk, and more, SpectraFix dries to a water-resistant matte finish that locks in your media while still allowing for additional layering. It can even be used under oil or acrylic paints to prevent smudging of underdrawings. Archival and non-yellowing, this fixative can be applied on a wide range of surfaces and is a must-have for studios, classrooms, and mixed media artists.
