    Actually, though, I do want to acknowledge you point. I have not yet coated any of my labels out of concern that nail polish or lacquer would damage/degrade the paper label. Obviously embedding the label in some sort of lacquer is a permanent decision and I've been waiting to see if anyone else's labels have gone bad under the coating.

    i would avoid nail polish, but rather consult an art equipment store and explain the purpose of the sealant, and possibly find something that is reversible. that said, i would not alter labels at all other than take it off and let it sleep in a box, and then reattach it lightly with gummi arabicum e.g.
