I found this video extremely helpful so thank you very much 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video! Excited to finish my first piece and seal it.
That is awesome! Diamond Art is so addicting!
The best review. Thank you so much. 😊 I’m still waiting for my first diamond painting to be shipped so I’m watching this in advance.
You are welcome!
I have done a couple diamond paintings and love doing them. I just done have anywhere to put them. Thanks for testing the sealers. Sue Christmas Brannon
You are so welcome! ❤️
Thank you for reviewing these products! I have used the "Lanbeide Diamond Painting Sealer" and Mod Podge Super Gloss". Some remarks about the Lanbeide; after deciding to put 2 coats on since it was a larger painting (60 X 45 and I wanted to hang it on the wall), the SECOND coat dried cloudy/milky/dull on and between the drills. I should not have done 2 coats but it didn't say you couldn't. It did mention "curing time" which depended on the thickness of EACH LAYER. One coat looks good. The company does not have any customer service contact information ANYWHERE. Wondering if there is a way to restore the diamond luster and take away the milkiness between the diamonds? As for the Mod Podge Super Gloss, it dried nice and shiny but with a little tackiness. Next time I will add some water to see if that helps the tackiness. Any advice/help regarding the above would be appreciated. I have also tried to contact Lanbeide through Amazon but have not heard anything as yet. I really want to hang that painting, but I can't display it in its current condition. ☹
I am so sorry you didn't have great results, the sealer should be applied thin to keep the sparkle luster of the plastic drills. Sadly I don't know of a way to remove the sealer.
Mod Podge is the only one I’ve seen people use. I think I would prefer the ones you liked. I haven’t finished my first painting, so I haven’t sealed yet.
Thanks Cathy! Isn't diamond painting so fun?
Hi! Do you still have the flower you sealed? I'm curious how the top layer behaves after some time. Is it hard and will it crackle if you would frame it now? Or turn yellow in time?
I actually did not keep it because I couldn't frame it since it had 4 different sealants. But I have used the DuraGloss on other items (not diamond art) and those pieces have not yellowed in time.
Hi. I actually have the Lanbeide pour sealer. It comes with the silicone brush. If I use a regular paint brush, what do I use to clean the brush with when I'm finished? BTW I like your video! Thank you.
Thank you so much!! Water should work fine, just make sure to remove all of the sealer in the bristles.
I use mod podge ...one part water with one part mod podge...non glitter....works great...
Thanks for the tip!
Hi do you put it before or after the painting is done
Apply the sealant after you are done applying all of the diamond drills to the canvas.
Mod Podge has a Diamond Painting sealer now. Not sure when it came out.
Thanks for letting me know. I'll have to check it out!
@@KatieAdams I'm having a challenging time finding reviews to see how it compares to other types of Mod Podge.
@@karynmorton4843 It looks like a new product, even their website doesn't have reviews.
The Mod Podge should be cut 50% with water. That would cut down on the sparkle
Hi, how about for a canvas with popping drills?? 😁
I am sorry but I don't know what popping drills are.
@@KatieAdams it's where there's a wrinkle in the canvas and they won't stay on. A big PIA lol. I will never order from this company again.
But thanks so much for replying ☺
@@das3373 Oh I see, they keep popping off. Yes, sealing will definitely help hold those drills on that don't want to stay on.
@@KatieAdams Yes! You pop it back in and another pops out. Very frustrating.
Thanks again 😊
does modge podge still work?
Yes, Mod Podge does work, but there are other products that work better, in my opinion.
Okay, clearly I'm doing something wrong here. I used the specialty stuff (got mine on Wish, but it's definitely the same stuff), and I did exactly what you did. Yours looks perfect. Mine looks like its covered in cornstarch. Actually, exactly like cornstarch - the canvas even went stiff! Please help!🙏
My canvas went stiff too so that is normal, but it sounds like it was applied too thick. You really want a nice light coat.
@@KatieAdams hmm...you did say to fill the spaces between drills though, right? I expected it to dry clear, like PVA glue. I even ran a dry sponge over it after applying it so there weren't any puddles or anything. How do I clean it now? That stuff is water-based, isn't it? Damp sponge?
@@uncle_thulhu Yes, you do want to fill the space between the drills, but I am not quite sure what happened with the sealant you used. I am not sure how to remove it since it is basically glue. You may want to reach out to the manufacturer of the sealant you used.
@@uncle_thulhu It could be that your place has higher humidity, which is every sealant's worst nightmare. Also check if it turns sticky upon contact with water... then that means that your sealant was not really water proof but water soluble.
@@valenmejia2135 Well, wiping it with damp paper towels did absolutely nothing, so I'm guessing it's waterproof.
First of all, thank you for doing this testing and comparison. The video was pretty well done. I found the one with the sponge applicator left bubbles all in between the drills, distracting son the sparkle.
But, what was very distracting in your otherwise well done video is your pronunciation of Mod Podge. It is "Mod," not "Modge." I know I'll get yelled at for this, but, hey... 🤷♀️
I am glad you found the video helpful.
I used three of those when I was sealing my jigsaw puzzles and the duraclear was by far the best (they make the resin I use for paracord charms). The Mod Podge always left a cloudy look and the triple thick was a pain to apply. I'm about to finish my first diamond painting and was going to use my Rose Art puzzle glue (dries almost as clear as resin).
Thank you so much for sharing your results!
