SpectraFix Details

SpectraFix Natural Artist Materials was conceived in 2007 in the San Francisco Bay Area of Northern California, when artist Della Heywood created her first batch of natural casein fixative based on a 100 year old recipe used by Edgar Degas. Astonished at its versatility and delighted by its friendly fumelessness, she continued to use it in her studio for two years until finally deciding to create a product that other artists could enjoy.

Since that time, SpectraFix has created several new innovations in natural water-based, bio-polymer coatings, always placing working properties and permanence as our ultimate goal, but never compromising our commitment to zero toxicity. Each formulation avoids the use of any substance which would be harmful to human health or the environment. Dries quickly to an invisible matte finish and is fully reworkable, allowing deep layering as well as providing extra traction on thickly layered, slippery media such as colored pencil or oil pastel.

What is FinalFix Fixative? SpectraFix Degas Fixative is made with casein, water and alcohol and is based on an antique recipe used by French Impressionist painter, Edgar Degas. It seals and protects your artwork while leaving your colors brilliant, and best of all.. there are no toxic fumes or odors!

What is SpectraFix Degas Spray Made Of? No more framing under glass! FinalFix is a casein-based spray fixative which contains beeswax and a few other natural ingredients to help the casein harden to a tough, moisture resistant finish. It is very similar to the Degas fixative, but provides a slightly deeper, semi-matte finish, and allows for damp cleaning and durable scuff-resistance. FinalFix contains beeswax and provides a slightly slicker surface than our Degas fixative, so if you desire plenty of traction to layer deeply.
