Painted backdrop question

[LizzyRoo]

Hi.
I painted this backdrop for my bearded's enclosure. I used acrylic paint. I have a 4x2x2 black pvc enclosure and will mount this backdrop inside the enclosure, so I figure I need to seal it. What is best that will finish nice and clear, stay clear whenever it needs to be wiped with a liquid cleaner, and most importantly be non-toxic for my dragon?? I've seen polycryic recommended, but doesn't that turn white when it gets wet? Does anyone have any recommendations?

I got a reply he said this
I'm not really sure what would seal art without causing it to discolor. There is probably a solution that I'm not aware of and would check art/painting forums. Perhaps the answer is just to put a piece of glass or plastic over the front of it to separate it from the rest of the enclosure to protect it. Or if the enclosure is all glass, mount it on the outside.

Okay, thank you for checking. I saw someone in another group recommended Krylon clear spray, but I'm not sure of the potential for toxicity even after letting it off gas.
But thanks for trying!

I used mod podge. Recommends 4 to 6 coats with 30 day complete cure time. I'm still in the process of building it. Hope to be done soon.
