Weather proofing? Are you hanging these things outside? If these are paintings that serve the usual purposes of hanging on an interior wall to be looked upon, you needn't worry about such things. Acrylic paintings are darned near bullet-proof. If, you're talking about a mural or hand-lettered sign, better to go with a good enamel paint.

My husband is an artist with paintings in state art galleries. He would never put any artwork above any fireplace and certainly not in sunlight -- even light can fade art in the long run.

Acrylic paint can stick if stored face to face. As you can see, it is a matter of evaluating your particular circumstance. yeap, we are abstract art online gallery and we always tell our customers that never put the acrylic paintings near the fire or under strong light
