I’ve used the Minwax Polycrylic Protective Finish, Gloss, Clear on paintings and off canvas. There are a lot of different type so be careful when ordering. Best place to order Amazon and though it’s expensive it lasts a long time without changing consistency as long as sealed well.I apply with a brush and wipe top of drills after applying. Cleanup is easy with water. Dries quickly but I generally leave over night. As you have said the canvases are stiffer and have some flex but not for rolling.Thank you for your information. Peace and love abide with you 💕

[@DiamondPaintingAnonymous]

I’ve not tried the Minwax - I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for watching!!

Decoart triple thick gloss glaze is also a good one for sealing diamond paintings, and not losing the sparkle.

[@DiamondPaintingAnonymous]

Thanks for sharing!!

@@DiamondPaintingAnonymous Any time. Thank you for sharing all you do too. I've learned a lot.

[@CrystalBeeMarriner]

This is what I use also

[@patriciaosborn5994]

Thanks for sharing your sealing tips, Daphne. I usually use mod podge or clear craft glue. I’ve been wanting to try the Minwax poly acrylic because I’ve heard a lot about how well it works. I’ve never heard of the crystal art sealer that you used here but I’m definitely going to be looking for it!

[@DiamondPaintingAnonymous]

I’ve not tried the Minwax either. Thanks for watching!!

[@louiselovescrafting6802]

Hi Daphne! I have only sealed off the canvas projects. For something that needs to flex a bit (journals and storage cubes, etc.) I use clear craft glue and Mod Podge for things like keychains and night lights. I never thought of mixing in water so have used both full strength. I also never wiped off the excess. I have a couple of canvasses that I don’t like so will cut them up into squares and do some experiments. Thanks for this video! ❤️💎

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on sealing a diamond painting. Have you tried Minwax Polycrylic clear gloss sealant? If so, how does it compare to your favorites?

[@DiamondPaintingAnonymous]

I’ve not tried the Poly or glue methods, so I’m not sure how they compare. Thanks for watching!!

Very helpful! Thank you! ❤️from🇨🇦

[@LyndaHuntTupling]

Can you seal acrylic diamond art items?

[@DiamondPaintingAnonymous]

You can, but sometimes sealing a piece can void the warranty, so be sure to check prior to sealing if that’s a concern for you. Thanks for watching!!

[@LyndaHuntTupling]

Thanks! I've heard of warranties on canvas but not acrylic items. I'll check.
