I need some questions answered on sealing a latex mask and such

I have few questions and I hope someone can help me.

1. Can I use Liquitex professional matte varnish with a brush on a burlap textured latex mask that I have painted with latex and acrylic paints to seal the paint permanently? (The Liquitex product says permanent and water resistant)

2. Would the matte varnish make a dry burlap textured mask overly matte or would it not ruin it at all?

3. The inside of the latex mask has a lot of friction on my hair and it tries to pull at it whenever it comes in contact with it, what could I use to seal the inside and make it so it has no pull on my hair and make it permanently slippery?
 
I can't answer your first two questions but for third one I'd be thinking about lining the area that affects your hair with a fabric of some sort.

Hey yes Liquitex do a flexible matte varnish that work well on what it sounds like you need. I'd just make sure the acrylics fully dried otherwise you'll brush it off when you start applying it. Ideally spray it on if you have the equipment available.n
Did you prime the mask with prosaide or anything similar as that's what'll help it hold in the long run.
