I have a question about murals/panels myself. True about the priming of the surface first...that's a must.
We painted a panel in the hall 4x6. We primed and painted the panel, now I am concerned that someone may scratch it or add their own brand of creativity to it. What's the best thing to do: seal with polyurathane or something else, or cover with a piece of plexiglass? The plexi will cost about 50 bucks. Avery
