That sounds like what I use. In the USA, I buy Krylon 'Workable Fixatif' 1306.

Thx again...
Lukcy,

I am 98% positive that is the stuff you need. If the people at the store are cool enough you can use it and if it's not the stuff still return it.

Hey, i read on a german board that you can use hairlacquer (or haurfinish, dont know the exact word for this). Its not normal hairspray, it would mae the the cards sticky. With this lacquer the cards have nearly the same feeling as in my invisible deck, maybe a little bit harder to devide, but i sprayed maybe too many of it. I bought the cheapest one, for about 1 US$.

Yeah the 3m spray...

We use it at work (I think it is 3m - it is a spray adhesive) and aftereward every thing within a 3 foot radius sticks into a big glob including the duffus who used it! That stuff is bad news! Nothing will get it out of your clothing! I can't imagine using it on my cards! No way, No how! Ain't happening! LOL

In a rugged camera, which you'll use to capture everything from cool animals and underwater life to kids running around on the beach, speed is paramount.
Polaroid hid in its comfort zone for another decade, and died there. It doesn't have to be that way. Canon merged new tech with its familiar SLR cameras,

Even when you use Krylon Matte paint, you will need to re-spray the cards after several uses. Usually you will find that you only need to re-spray a couple of the pairs at a time. If you use too much spray, the cards will be harder to separate. For some people, that is what they like. I have found using textured cards work best. Some cards have a smooth finish and this causes the cards to be difficult to get apart when coated.
