You can increase the durability and "life expectancy" of your print by surface protection such as lamination. Several forms of lamination are known, within which good results can be obtained with either a laminating machine or liquid lamination, depending on the purpose and the printing medium. While machine lamination is more expensive due to the purchase of a laminator, a transparent protective coating or liquid laminate is a lower material and labor cost option for protecting inkjet prints, billboards, posters, art prints, banners.
