Jim, Thanks for your on going support.

No, I have not sealed the face of the female epoxy die with anything, except with the previously mentioned releases. I certainly would not mind trying your suggesting, if it would be absolutely neccessary. If so, why shellac, why spray, why not acrylic or some other varnish type of seal?

Thanks,
Jon
