So i’ve just ordered the cloudy white signed variant, how would I go about preserving the signature? i’ve heard about using a clear coat nail polish but I would like to see what you guys do, thanks- Espressoe

Very risky to put anything over a signature as it will breakdown the substance used to create the signature. A Sharpie was probably used. Nail polish as well as any kind of spray will make the signature go away. Best to order a display cube for it. I’m assuming you are talking about a plastic Variant, right?

Don’t mess with it. Think of it as a collector piece.

if you plan to use it, it will unavoidably wear out.
