What is the BEST sealant for Acrylic paint on TFs?

Hi all, I was wondering what sealant is best for Acrylic paints used on TFs? I've heard of Testors Dullcoat, but is there something better, another brand or type?
Thanks!

Any clear coat for plastic models will work, you can even use Future, just make sure the paint has a chance to cure fully (2-5 days). Testor's Dullcote/Glosscote in rattle-cans are just the most convenient.
