    I'd advise against lacquer it could make the ink run .What about some sort of clear adhesive decal kind of material. I would be tempted to take it to a graphic decal installer and see what he could do.I just had my glove box signed as well but I don't drive the car a whole lot so hope it stands up. Good luck.

    I have the same problem, my G.T.500 and my F-150 both Carroll's Autograph on them. I asked the same question from my paint shop today. They said do not use lacquer or clear adheasive,. Both will cause damage to the Autograph. The only thing that they said might work is 3m clear auto mask or tape clear plastic around the autograph? If you here of anything that works better please let me know.

    Ummm, call me crazy, but find a repro glovebox, slap it on for daily driving, put the autograph in for show. Then you dont have to do anything to the glove box, just keep it. I guess that wouldn't work directly for us Dodge types, but if we can't find a glove box in one of the millions of junkyard Shadows, were in more trouble than we thought.

    I took Bob Marsh's suggestion and had the glovebox signed on the inside.
