Description
I get the question all the time... Do I have to seal polymer clay? And if so, with what?
The short answer is No.... Unless you need to.
When polymer clay is baked, it basically becomes plastic that doesn't need to be protected. So if you don't add anything to it, or you don't want a specific finish on it, you actually don't need to seal it at all.
But if you add something to the surface that could get scratched or rubbed off, you may need to protect it with a polymer clay safe finish.
In this video, I let you know which sealer product that I recommend.
