Hi yes the plate can be sealed with a varnish such as shellac or an acrylic varnish, however this will make the surface of the plate quite smooth the result would effect outcome of the print, as the glue applied makes a clean wipe the colour retention of the bare card offers a contrast to drawn line made using the glue.
Thanks this is an excellent demonstration of a technique I am going to try.
By the way, thanks for the great films.
Thanks for the demo! Very good information.
Very beautiful results, congratulations! I would put blue ink with the roller! Thank you 😊

Thank you for an interesting video. Would it be possible to seal the plate before printing, say with shellac?

I usually seal with diluted PVA
