Most people don't take their sculpts outside, (too risky) so spraying inside with a non-toxic spraypaint works wonders. It WILL have aerosol, but no mineral spirits or turpentine as a vehicle, so you're better off. Another option is to water down acrylic and put it into one of those atomizers or an old windex bottle, put it on light mist and spray in very light coats, (so you don't drip everywhere) until fully covered. if you want to put a release agent over that, it'd probably be a good idea- but don't do it before you spray it with a sealer, otherwise the sealer won't stick.   By the way- Tim Sale is gonna be at the Boston ComicCon on the 25th and I'm finally gonna go. You're not anywhere near here, are you? Whoa, thanks man! That's great info. Ah man, I wish I was near there. I live in Maryland, but I've got family up in MA.
