I have some Rustoleum spray on clear enamel that I was thinking of using to coat some images I have mounted on wood. Anyone know if it's acidic and will yellow the images?

The enamel I had in mine was laying around my house and was not made for photo use I suppose. I tested it on an old photo and while I didn't notice any degradation I'm sure xylene and acetone can't be good for printed images.
