How to preserve a signature on a Tennis ball? I got my tennis ball signed by both Federer and Murray last night. Federer signed with a permanent marker but murray signed with a regular pen. The tennis ball is the size of a basket ball, so please don't mention a baseball stand. Thanx!

In the past we used to borrow a hair spray to gently coat the surface - very gently in case it started to "run" - but I dont know whether the ladies use that now?

You can get a special spray from craft shops for protecting water colours. I used to use it on ink-jet printed CDs and DVDs but then an artist recommended using hair spray as it was much cheaper. It is ok but needs lots of very light sprays, the same as spraying a car.
