A water-based polyurethane is archival? What latex are you talking about?
What I was thinking of was for a case would not be panted at all. I was
thinking of having six sides of the uv blocking plexi and a piece of wood
on each edge to hold the pieces together. I was wondering about an
archival sealant of some type to go on the inside of the case to attach
the edges of the plexi pieces.
