Never tried that one.... But it should be fine...
I like Preserve IT, because it seems to go on a little thicker without "watering the image" and provides a great texture. The Krylon Matte finish and Satin finish are good as well.
Whatever you pick up, use a little on some labels and let them dry.
Go with 2 or more light coats at a good 18" away or so.
Let them air dry (garage would be great!)
Walmart carries several of Krylon's products for protecting artwork...

This will make them shinier, but that might be your goal? I used matte finish. Be careful you don't put too much on in one coat. It may get a little flaky when you put your labels on! It brushed off of my labels, but it irritated me.

I think the protect it does not affect the ink of the label, where the one you posted could(possibly running).

I got the "Protect it" for my labels from a small local hardware store, I didn't think they'd carry it, but to my surprise they did. Don't put it on too heavy or the spray will seep into the adhesive and could cause some problems (I learned this on one sheet of my labels so you don't have to wreck yours). I did two light coats (or was it three? Oh yeah avoid the fumes...) and they came out great.

I use Krylon preserve it also, matte finish. My chips have about 125-150 hours of play, they show absolutely no wear, or fadins. Put on 2 coats. Here they are. http://www.kodakgallery.com/PhotoVie...=1123080901680 |

Does anyone have a web link to buy the Krylong protect it clear online?
I can only find the Matte finish and it seems to blurr the detail on my labels a bit.
Thanks,
