then coat the sheet with pva/podge to stiffen it.
Yes, I normally just dilute some cheap pva glue but I've found that saying "mod podge" avoid giving the wrong impression.

I did try putting it over the clearcoat but it still ended up with some streaks. Maybe I'm diluting the pva too much or not enough now that I think of it.

I tried it but the podge just diffused through the paper and caused bluriness. Maybe if I try a higher weight of paper it could work, last time it was 190.
