Marbling with Jacquard Powder Pigments - Need to top-coat?

When using Jacquard powder pigments for marbling, do you need to top-coat over the marbling to keep it from flaking up, or is it fine enough to stay put?

It should be imbedded in the epoxy and you needn't top coat it, unless you just want some additional clear depth to it.

Good info above, Marc.

1. It isn't absolutely necc. at all.

2. Putting a clear coating over it does add a bit of depth, especially when putting decals over it.
