Myron, Cibachrome prints are a great example of a image type that can
benefit from a lamination. However it should be done right so as not to
take away from the look and permanence that the print has to start with. Why
laminate? To keep the moisture from going in and out of the print taking any
tiny amounts of color, particularly Magenta, out of the print. With RC
silver gelatin, one might want to keep the absorption of pollutants down to
a minimum. I would use a non absorbing substrate too like plexi or aluminum.
At to Crystal Clear? The manufacture should be able to answer that.

As long as we are on the topic of laminating prints, does anyone know the
chemical properties of the common "crystal clear" photo laminating
material(s)?
Browsing websites of the suppliers and manufacturers didn't give me much
information.
There are situations in which a fully laminated print might be desirable
(high or extremely variable humidity, for example). [Has anyone else made a
print that "would be PERFECT for my bathroom!" ?]
