I use that brand as well but had issues with the sponge tip applicator because it kept picking up the diamonds off the painting no matter how flat and solid it was, it's cool to see that it can work! I had to switch to the one of same brand but with silicone brush applicator because i was tired of ruining my paintings. Thank you for this cool video! 🎉❤

It came out great. Dried perfect. Thank you for tutorial.

Thank you so much, your the only one who had video on this type of sealer

Thank you Rachel. I ruined a whole a whole diamond painting that had popping drills by using a crappy cheap product. Well, then I did a diamond painting of a shark that my grandson wanted. Popping drills on that one also...but I used that Tombow. When it dried I rushed to Hobby Lobby and got it framed and matted. I now only invest in DAC. (oh, the Tombow worked. It is still hanging in his bedroom!). Much luv...your channel relaxes me. Take good care Rachel. :)

Hi Rachel I usually don't reply much but I love how well you do you're diamond paintings.. i love you're cat diamond painting too. I have a black cat too ..❤😊

I'm gonna have to see if I can pick up some of that sealant and give it a try. It will make me feel a little better about my cheaper Amazon diamond paintings. Thanks!

Thank you!! My first kit has popping drills and I need to seal it.

That is the cutest picture!!!

thank you for posting. i just finished my first diamond painting.

I like that sealant. I have not sealed any diamond paintings before. I just framed them. But I would like to try that to make sure the drills stay put. Thanks for sharing Rachel. Have a wonderful evening. 🌸🌴

Huh. I’m working on Virgo from Diamond Art Club and I have popping drills. I also did Mother and Child from them and had the same issue. That’s why I seal ALL my paintings.

It’s nice to see what a 30 by 40 picture looks like since I bought one that was 30 by 40

Looks great 👍 You take care too 🥰🥰

I use tombow mono aqua glue or mod pod he to seal them and it works wonders! I like them because they both dry flexible so it doesn’t crack. I used triple thick once and it cracked the whole thing!

thank you for showing us I always see all my diamond paintings including DAC using mod podge I'll have to try that stealing out

I use mod podge gloss paint sealer to seal my diamond paintings it works just fine

Awesome 😎

Damned if I wasn’t on the UK site. Thank you. I got some.

Some folks use minwax polycrylic clear sealant. They say it doesn't dull any of the shine

Thanks for the video it is very helpful. I use a mod podge sealer which works great however I just ran out and went to the store. The issue is the only one I could find was a spray. Do you have any tips for sealing with a spray. I'm just worried about the application for the spray.

Hey Rachel I’ve been looking for a good sealer for my diamond painting as I too have popping drills. So I’m going too by this Amazon sealer but. I have a couple questions I hope you can answer. 1 how many coats did you use. 2 and did the bubbles go away on it’s own or did you have to use a hair dryer

It did not look like much control with that bottle? Cute black cat though. Perfect for Halloween coming up. Richard

It works surprisingly well. You could use a foam brush to smooth it out.

If you use a smallish brush it may be better, I have seen that done and it came out really good. It gets down in the Diamonds much better.

Hi Cindy, I have brush type as well. I looked this up to see what they look like when completed. I am going to seal mine and do some iron hem sewing and make mine a garden flag and place outside. Do you think the seal will seal enough to withstand the sun and they won't "melt down" ... they are perfect size for garden flags.

I had to seal a diamond painting my mom got me from temu because it had popping drills i used mod podge and it's ended up with tons of air bubbles it's ok though it was my first diamond painting and it's a small painting it still looks good unless you look super up close

Thanks for showing us how you did that and I'm glad that it worked out great. And at 1 time you used to use a different glue different glue call Tombo, maybe. Is that 1 no good to use now?

@RachelRaeCraft

Nope, tombow is still good but this one is a little better imo

I purchased some of this but am wondering if you have to rinse or wash out the lid after using? Wondering what you did...

Would mod podge also work?

Did you find it hard to tell which areas you had already covered with the glue?

try going vertical then horizontal with the glue

I made a diamond painting and want to make it into my garden flag. Do you think after sealing it can withstand sun?

What about the sparkle? Before and after? It does look great!

If you have ever done coaster kits will sealing the coasters be safe to use after it is dried. Worried of heat of cups.

I am new to the diamond art paintings, does framing the art help protect the art piece? I am going to be gifting certain pieces for holidays and want them to be able to hang it beautifully. So it'll be behind glass and or plastic in a frame.

Hi! Just wondering if it's okay to roll up the diamond painting after sealing it. I don't have a portfolio to store them in so I just always roll them back up to store away in their original box. I'm looking into sealing them but wondering if rolling it up again after it dries will ruin it?

@RachelRaeCraft

They probably won't be able to roll up once sealant has been applied. You might need to store them in a flat portfolio.

Yes, in extreme circumstances you can seal as you go. I'm interested to know what company you're working with that you have so many popping problems.

Thanks for sharing this video tutorial Rachael. I've been looking for a good diamond painting sealant, so am gonna purchase this one of Amazon. I'm hoping it works as I'm getting a custom diamond painting of Lucifer. Hope it doesn't crack and keeps the sparkle. Will let you know.

Why aren't you brushing it on????

Why do people save their trash drills? ❤️🇨🇦
