kardar2 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Hello, I am getting ready to make some toys that have decals.I am wanting to put a clear coat over them to make them last. The paint I will use is oil base enamel. So what do you think? If I put a clear coat in and my grandson tears a sticker off it will have a blemish. Thanks for the input.

Uncle Ricky Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I use KRYLON triple-thick crystal Clear Glaze/0500 it comes in a spray can. It is a bright, glass-like coating. When you spray one coat on it, it is like your spraying three coats by just useing one coat of it. I get it at walmart for $3.85 per can. I dont know if that is what your looking for. hope it helps you some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kardar2 Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I was looking for something to use with my air brush. Can you use that on oil base paint? artmill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Ricky Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 it shows to use on: decoupage, porcelainizing, clooage, wood, metal, plastic, paper mache, glass, plaster,ceramic, dried/silk flowers, paper, wicker, etc. I dont know if it will work on oil base paint or not. Here is a web site you can goto to check it out. www.krylon.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Finn Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I also use the triple thick clear glaze from Walmart. I like it but have trouble getting enough. They keep running out of it. It is actualy a spray lacquer although it does not say that on the can. The smell gives it away. I have done decoupage on wood using brush on lacquer. In Fact I print out my own images to apply. I print them on tissue paper and then apply with lacquer.That is how I did these. Decopage on Trunk.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kardar2 Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 thanks I went to the website I could not find it either when I go to walmart I will look at it . If it cleans up with water it is water base if it says to clean up with thinner well you know it is oil base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
