A photomask plate with a film surface protective layer is characterized in that a protective layer forming solution is prepared by mixing a main constituent comprising a two-liquid cross-linked antifouling surface coating agent, prepared by combining a mixed resin of a fluororesin and an acrylic resin in a solvent mixture of n-butyl acetate, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK), with a cross-linking curing agent, prepared by mixing a polyisocyanate prepolymer and ethyl acetate, and a diluent comprising n-butyl acetate, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and cellosolve (ethylene glycol monoethyl ether) acetate. This protective layer forming solution is applied to a film surface of a photomask plate photosensitive emulsion layer produced by forming the film surface of the photosensitive emulsion layer (an emulsion photomask) on a substrate. The protective layer forming solution is then aged to form a film surface protective layer in a laminated manner. The resulting inexpensive and durable photomask is protected from being soiled or marked while having minimal reduction in ultraviolet light transmittance.
