5:15 - This is where she begins to talk about what to do. You're welcome. I'm a lover of this channel but sometimes the huge intros become a skip for me - just me opinion, I lover Makers Gonna Learn but sometimes you want to get straight to the point :]
Sorry about that. Thanks so much for your love and support.
THANK YOU GOD! I was looking for this information everywhere! I've never done anything like this before. I ordered a thermos and the beautiful design is coming off. You're a lifesaver!!
Glad I could help! Thank you for watching and commenting!
I really like you guys honesty and incsn tell you are for the consumer and what to help us regular people...Makers Gonna Learn for President!!
Thanks a lot for this video and all the information provide it. I have only made two projects with vinyl, one with iron on a library bag for my little nephew and one with oracal 651, I have personalised all the bottles for my colleagues as my boss bought a soda machine and gave us bottle to each of us. I really liked to work with vinyl and this kind of projects are really nice. I loved the oracal 651, so easy to weed and as you have mentioned so many colours 🥰. Thanks a lot 💕🦘🇦🇺🌷🌹
You are so welcome! Thank you, ma'am
Love your presentation of things with honesty and straightforwardness. It's like watching a friend talk smack..lol. New subscriber.
YAY! Thank you so much for watching!
Yessss!! I couldn’t have said it better!! Awesome personality!. 💯😆💖
I love that you're to the point and don't add all the extra fluff in your how to videos. I can't find the comment with the actual products you used for this
Thank you so much for your honesty and options other than epoxy (I am a disaster with the stuff & don't have a turner - been borrowing my mom's) Can the polycrylic be used on glitter tumblers or the textured finished stainless tumblers
I agree with you Rachel. I never seal mine and I also run them through the dishwasher daily. The only thing that has ever come off was when I use teeny tiny letters, which is not very often. Love you Rachel.
what type/brand of vinyl do you use?
Please use any adhesive vinyl you have :) All good brands of adhesive vinyl are created equal. There is no such thing as permanent vinyl, so don't be fooled by vinyls being marketed as permanent. We always recommend sealing a project like this, so it doesn't matter what type of vinyl you choose because you're going to seal it anyways :)
Thank you!!! You're too sweet :)
@@auroratrinidad88 I use Oracle 651
Great tutorial Rachel!! Thanks.
You are so welcome! Thank you, ma'am
I’m working on my business and I use vinyl on a container. It’s definitely been coming off I need to seal it for sure. I’ll try this thanks.
Thanks so much for this detailed tutorial....this so helpful! 😁
Thank you for your honesty! New follower ♥️
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thank you so much for this thoroughly informative video/ tutorial. 👏🏼💕🌸💎💯📝
You're so welcome!😊
Thanks Rachel! Great information as always!!!
You are so welcome! Thank you!
LOL I love your statement about the decals on cars. That is a good point. Thank you.
You are so welcome
I Lol also😂 I love her accent 👍
Thank you for the video. Can we use the polycrylic on Plastic tumbers and Mugs?
New subscriber here! I just came across your videos and love your presentation!! You explain everything so well!! And your personality is great!! Must be that southern charm!! All of us southern gals have it!! 😁😁. Thank you for your time. Looking forward to learning more!! ❤️❤️
Yay, welcome!❤
Just the tip I was looking for. Thank you so much!!!
No problem!!🙂
Thanks, can you use the poly on fine glitter? If so will it be dish washer safe?
FYI, Siser just came out with a new HTV - it's called Siser Sparkle - comes in a bunch of super fun colors and it's thinner than the regular Siser Giltter (surface is completely flat also, which I think adds a longer lifespan to the design than some of the rougher glitter products might). With few exceptions (a few different products from Thermoflex) the primary products I buy are Siser HTV and Oracal as my primary / go to adhesive vinyl. For funsies, things like Siser Brick or Siser Flock (both HTV) make hats pop! I like your videos, and will probably sign up for your subscription service shortly, as my Cricut DesignSpace subscription is going to expire in a couple of months and I have not used any of the "exclusive" svg's on that in I can't even tell you how long.
Okay, thanks
Thanks for the video! I have a question about the polycrylic...in the description box the link is for matte...although I would think I might need satin..since the tumbler is kind os shiny. I would love to see an AFTER picture, after the coats and dry. Please let us know how the matte is working!
New to your channel and Cricut in general. You are awesome and I love your accent! ❤️ Yankee here. Lol
I am so excited to learn and you guys are so efficient at teaching. I wish I worked with you in your amazing craft room!
God bless! Jesus loves you! I do too!
Thank you so much!😊
Very helpful! Thank you!
We're so glad this was helpful for you! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Great video! Thank you for sharing.
I'm am going to try the epoxy.
I thought about getting a spinner, but not sure that it's necessary
Only get a spinner if you plan on making multiple epoxy cups, or it's not worth it! :) Best of luck!
What do you recommend cleaning your paint brushes with? I have been using pink soap and a makeup brush cleaning mat
We always are quick to wash a brush, and we do so with warm water only. It's always worked very well for us. If you have accidentally let a brush dry a while with paint on it, we recommend squirting some hair conditioner in a cup and letting the brush sit in it. The conditioner will loosen the paint (most of the time) and allow you to wash it clean.
This is so helpful! If I have a black matte tumbler should I use matte polycrylic vs the satin one for shiny stainless steel tumblers?
Love the video and loving my membership!!!!
We're so glad to hear that!!!!
Hi, How did you connect site to cricut? Do you still use design space or connect directly through site once a member?
Thanks so much once again Rachel another great helpful video!!!! God Bless Liz x
You are so welcome!
I did the sealant, but I think the next time I'm going to get Crystal Clear Gloss Finish for the stainless steel and the bottles I get that are matte, I'll use the crystal clear matte finish. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for a clear and well presented video that's helped us understand this simple finishing technique
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, I love your channel! So much great info. I do have one question. I am new to this craft, and If I am making a glitter tumblers and I want to apply a decal after my epoxy do I need to put a sealer over my decks before I apply my next coat of epoxy? Thank you in advance for your time :)
Great video. Very useful, thanks!
So glad it was helpful!
I love these videos! So helpful!
Does the type of brush (other than not being a coarse bristle) really matter?
I always prefer using sponge brushes when using Mod Podge or staining, but I'm not sure how they would work with Polycrylic on a tumbler or other drink glass I'd be sealing.
Yes we highly recommend a very soft brush, the softer the brush the less brush stokes will be left behind. We don't recommend sealing glass at all, since it's clear, there is no way to avoid seeing the brush strokes.
What is the cure time for the polycrylic to be able to regular use? I know the mod podge is 28 days right?
Hi! Can y’all make a video on how to decorate a Cricut? The 1 in this video is super cute!
We have a video on creating this on our member only Facebook group :)
Thank you so much for this video! I was wondering what would be the best way to seal cricut holographic vinyl and adhesive foil and a starbucks tumbler? The vinyl and foil doesn't seem to stick well and I want to be able to seal it. Please advise. Thank you!!
You're so welcome! Feel free to use this exact method in this video!
Hello I’m just getting into cricut and already have someone wanting a tumbler. I want to etch but don’t want to go through all the steps and work with corrosive chemicals and hope for the best. I also am concerned about the sealing of tumbler with permanent vinyl route. My concern with permanent was worrying about the vinyl getting washed off during washing dishes. Your video reassured me that the permanent will hold up a good while, so I am going to go the route of just doing permanent vinyl tumblers. I will probably also give extra decals that the receiver or buyer can add if they want to change or replace. This would be a appreciation. Then when you mentioned the fact you could change them during certain occasions sounds perfect because that extends the life of the tumbler to be versatile rather than be a one time design use. Now I can start making tumblers I save the money on the chemicals and supplies to get more tumblers.
Thanks, it helped me alot 🥰
Glad it helped!
Than you for this video it was very helpful!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Finally something without Epoxy 😂😂😂
Yay!!
Same I hate epoxy lol
I’m looking solely for personal use. I’m not a small business owner. I don’t need a turner & fancy equipment. I bought some lovely vinyl decals on Etsy. Problem I’m having is the “holo layer” is peeling off of the “colored layer” under it. I’m not too worried about the food safety bits as it’s only going to be on the outside of it. 🤷🏼♀️
Love it thanks👏

I really would liked to have seen the finished products fully cured with all 3 coats. Kinda wanted to see what it would look like - specifically at the top where the Polycrylic meets the unsealed lip
I tried the polycrylic mentioned, after watching this video and it completely messed up the tumbler after a couple of washes. When washing it, I lightly hand washed the outside of the tumbler. The tumbler slowly started getting water marks that would not come off and just made it look dirty. Completely ruined my tumbler. I wouldn't recommend it.
@@mayraesolis31 did you wait 28 days for it to cure?
The difference between that and the car decal is when I put layered vinyl on top of eachother it will come off. So when you have one layer stickers you probably dont have to seal but I wrap my cups and put small cattle brands all over them so you risk the brands coming off
Awesome information and instructions. Thanks.
You're welcome!
Thank you!!
Thank YOU :)
Such a great Idea! Have you tried spray polycrylic on any of your cups?
Yes, the coats aren't as even and it doesn't seal as well as we'd want it to on a tumbler! Great question though!
Thanks so much for this. I really needed this video, because I had posted a question on this on your Facebook page the other day. The group was helpful to me on this, but this video was even more helpful. I just made some tumblers (my first project!), and they turned out so cute. I even used one of your font files! I was going to ask the same question as Janel, as I'm working with tumblers that are painted and have a bit of a rough texture. So, I appreciate your response to that. Do you think on those tumblers that have a slight texture (because they are painted), it's more important to seal? I am worried that the vinyl doesn't stick as well to those as a result of the slightly rough texture. What do you do on your personal work? Do you seal it? (I heard you say you would if you were selling them, and I am wondering what you'd do when gifting them.) Thank you again! I appreciated the video a lot (and I also feel like there's a concerted effort to keep your marketing at the beginning very brief, which I appreciate very much!)!
Thank you for the video! When it comes to sealing the vinyl on the tumbler, would you use resin as a sealer as an option?
would you have to seal around the tumbler and can you also do this on cups
can I use them for a wood slice coaster painted with a top coat of acrylic paint? will it works to make it waterproof and heat proof? Thanks!!
So glad I found you. Great information! I’m new at this and not sure I want to spend a lot of money on products yet, lol. I love this option cause I have been a little intimidated . Thank you for boosting my confidence..
You're so welcome! Thank you for your kind words. We're so happy to have helped you!
Hi there! Thank you so much for this video. Question: Can you use minwax polycrylic on a Starbucks plastic tumbler?
Absolutely: ua-cam.com/video/yTp3nDu5fdg/v-deo.html
Hello, I am new to the Cricut world so I am enjoying your videos. I am wondering if you can seal vinyl on plastic surfaces, such as reusable water bottles. Thank you
Yes, you can :) We recommend sealing them just like this!
Great tips! As always, thank you so much for sharing! Stay safe, healthy and positive! GOD bless you and your family! 🙏❤🇺🇸🌞
So I know this is kinda related but not really. I am just exploring my option but if I add rhinestones to a cup or tumbler with my decals, would the poly acrylic seal those too?
Hello! So for something as thick as rhinestones, I think your best sealer option on a tumbler would be epoxy. I'm afraid the poly would not be thick enough to properly seal something like that :(
Thank you so much! I really needed this video/guide! Thanks again! BTW, I just love your accent! lol
You're SO welcome!!!
Thank u for this info!!
Hi and thanks for the awesome video! Wow! Awesome video! Thank you !!!
I followed your links for ordering the supplies. I ended up with the Polycrylic Clear Matte. Will that work ? Or should I get the Clear Satin? Thank you!!!
Yes matte will work great!
You mentioned that if you had printable vinyl you should seal it. I made something for a friend with the printable vinyl, will the polycrylic ruin the peintable vinyl at all? Thanks for the great and informative video!!
No, we actually recommend spraying the decals with polyurethane. to seal them :) So afterwards using polycrylic is totally fine and will not ruin them!
Hi if it’s getting scrubbed in the sink will the vinyl come off , I put permanent vinyl logo on a tumbler and if I tried I can peal It off
Thank you for this! Question- I have a project that involves a matte skinny tumbler and shiny metallic vinyl, and I do want to seal it because they will be gifts but I am worried about the difference in texture. Is there a product you recommend that will seal the shiny vinyl onto the matte tumbler without either one looking weird?
I’m in same situation, would really appreciate an answer to your question…. How did you end up sealing your tumblers?
Same, I have pink yellow and orange matte metal skinny koozies that I’m doing for a bachelorette party, trying to figure out if I seal them what’s best to use…did you attempt to try anything with yours?
Hi! This was VERY helpful! I was wondering which polycrylic you used? I looked at your links… they said matte? Does that mean they won’t be clear and shiny? Then, in the video you said satin? I’m looking for a clear and shiny finish much like epoxy, but I wasn’t sure which to use of the polycriyics to use? Please help!
Same. Did you ever get the answer?
Very helpful presentation and wonderful explanations. I'm making 28 mini plastic/vinyl squeeze bottles personalized. I can't find anywhere if you can polyacrylic or even epoxy the bottles after applying the name of product and name of person. I guess what I'm saying is it's plastic. You need it to stay pliable to squeeze contents as in hand sanitizer out of it. I've had answers to posted questions about if a specific vinyl will hold up on a plastic bottle but only answer I received to the question was NO it would flake. I think them meant peel but no matter I just have no idea. Amazon stopped accepting questions and comments to reviews posted this past year and so a lot of two way directional communication is stiffled. So UA-cam is my go to now for answers if I can locate anyone who might know. I suppose I might consider acylic over just the vinyl words and appliques and not the whole bottle. I do worry that the poly-acrylic will peel and take the applique with it. Anythoughts you can share or point me to another video you've posted that is helpful would be so appreciated. Stay safe everyone.
Have you tried the resin spray sealer or Mod Podges sealer spray? Thinking they may give a streak free finish. But I have had some aerosol spray sealers peal the edges of the vinyl up.
Quick question - what would you suggest best between the mod podge and the polyacrylic over vinyl that is on a sublimated design skinny tumbler? I don't want to rune the sublimation design image, and made one for a friend with her name in vinyl over it and she just informed me her name in vinyl is starting to peel off. Thank you!
Thanks for the video, it’s exactly what I need to learn. Would you do anything different for a Yeti 30oz Rambler? Mine is a matte turquoise tumbler. Thinking there isn’t but want to confirm. TY!
No ma'am, you would seal it the same way! If you wanted your rambler to keep it's matte finish, you can use Matte polycrylic: amzn.to/39r5gpF
Will this method be the same for plastic tumblers like the color changing from Michaels?
Can you use the spray polycrylic on tumblers?
8:27 to get to why most of you are here. ..
Hi, I really enjoyed your video. I did apply the Polycrylic on my tumbler following the instructions from the video, and after 3 days, when I checked the tumbler, I noticed that the Polycrylic was peeling off, it is any special reason why of this, or it's because the total cure time could be between two to three weeks?
Make sure your tumbler is perfectly before applying the polycrylic. Once you've applied the coats its important to keep your tumbler cool and dry so it seals properly.
Awesome video and explanation. Thank you. Love that Southern accent. As a fellow Southerner, can I seal my Styrofoam coffee cup. 🤣🤣🤣 Sorry, had to be silly. God bless.
Glad you enjoyed it!🙂
Can you use the poly acrylic on rubberized tumblers or would you recommend the spray paint version?
Great question! I’m much more handy with sprays than brushes. 🤣
Would you recommend gloss or satin polycrylic for stainless steel tumblers?
I'm curious about this as well
With the Minwax Polycrylic, what finishes would you recommend for projects? (ie: Satin, Gloss, Semi-Gloss, Matte)
We prefer Matte!! :) amzn.to/2KzC588
I KNEW you were from Tennessee! I am too! Love how you explain things. Will be subscribing.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching. 😊
Can you use the polycrylic on a powder coated tumbler ? Or does it have to be stainless steel?
Love your name, "Makers Gonna Learn"
Hi love you channel! Want to know what types of vinyl can I use for plastic cups is printable, permanent vinyl great for plastic cups? Can seem to let it last long on my kids cups
Great advices!
Can I use the poly to make glitter tumblers?
You need something a bit thicker to really seal tumblers well, which is why you see everyone using epoxy!
Crystalac Brite Tone works! You have to add more layers though. I can't use epoxy.
thank you...have you tried using this method on cured resin? For example, seal after layering vinyl on bookmark (instead of sealing it with another layer of resin).
I bought the Mod Podge Dishwasher Safe gloss to seal my tumbler (it's painted) but now I am wondering if I should use this on that type of material instead since you mentioned the Mod Podge might streak on the metal tumblers. Which would you recommend?
Mod podge won't streak, you will be able to see more brush strokes because it is a thicker sealant :) This Polycrylic is thinner, therefore you will see less brush strokes. However, if you be sure to use a gd soft brush and light coats, you should be fine using either product :)
Just started following. How do you wash if you don't seal? If you don't seal, how long will the vinyl stay on? Thanks 😊
The length of how long the un-sealed vinyl lasts depends heavily on how often you use and wash it. We really recommend sealing these tumblers but if you do not then please hand-wash quickly and dry immediately. The less water that gets on the decal the better :) Good luck!
I've had a bit of an issue using the polycrylic to see vinyl on a coffee mug. It works good but it tends to leave a messy texture in some parts. Do your customers still buy your products despite the polycrylic leaving imperfections?
make sure you're using a super soft, very clean brush. If you do it correctly, there should be pretty much no imperfections asides from some super light brush strokes that people *might* be able to see :) Sometimes the imperfections can be from a dirty brush or a dusty cup, so make sure you're cleaning everything and allowing the polycrylic to dry in an area where it won't get any dust particles or debris on it. However if you're still having issues, sell them unsealed.
How long should you wait after you applied the vinyl onto the tumbler to seal it?
Hi , I am new to this , I have a question ? What type of polycrylic did you recommend me for a finish mate ? Thank you :)
Here you go :) amzn.to/2JwZgDt
Thanks for the video. Have you tried these on UV DTF transfers?
Can you use this seal on the wine tumblers that have a color treatment on them and your vinyl decal?
Is there a different sealer for plastic cold cups? I've used the polycrylic with my cold cup s and I've noticed that on occasion the polycrylic will crack and chip off so I'm wondering is there a different type of sealer for the cold plastic cups.
I don’t know where you went to , but I enjoy our videos very much! The no nonsense is best for me!
Can you use polycrylic to seal vinyl on a hydroflask? and if so, gloss or matte finish?
I'm curious about this as well.
I put vinyl on a stainless steel tumbler and sealed it with Mod Podge Dishwasher safe as one of my first Cricut projects. . Now that I have gotten better at my craft I would like to redo it. Do you know a way to take off the mod Podge so I can remove the vinyl?
What would you recommend to seal vinyl on a clear acrylic clutch bag? Thank you for your time.
Nothing if it's clear. We don't recommend sealing anything clear because you'll be able to see the brush strokes of the material.
@@MakersGonnaLearn Thank you so much 😀
Can you use the poly acrylic sealer with the Maars moon rock glitter tumblers?
Im a newby, great video, I have matt black and white coated drink stainless steel drink bottles, would this method work? or would the streaks show due to the colour of the bottles? thank you
you can use this: amzn.to/3qooSTt , it's got a matte finish that won't hinder your finish!
1. Can you use the aerosol spray version of the minwax? 2. Will that product work on the colored tumblers just as well as the plain stainless tumblers?
We don't recommend spray sealer for this. The spray just doesn't apply the same nice even coats and better seal that occurs by brushing a sealer on :) As for your second question, yes it works on colored tumblers :)
Can I use polycrylic on mugs? Thank you for this tutorials you guys are the best teachers.
Here's how we recommend sealing mugs: ua-cam.com/video/rRiSVUhEUa8/v-deo.html :) But yes, you can use polycrylic if you need to!
Thank you so much!!
hey! could these products be used on hydro flasks? would they work the same?
Wondering the same. It’s powder coat. They’re pricey. I’m terrified I’d ruin it. I wonder if clear Rustoleum spray would work? I haven’t had any issues with that on my dish drainer. 🤔
Can you use infusible ink on a tumbler if so are there any rules?
Love this video! Is the polycrilic safe to use on a plastic reusable starbucks cup?
Yes, it is! after curing for 28 days it is food safe, per the FDA :)
@@MakersGonnaLearn Wow, 28 days? Still very interested in finding a way to incorporate it. Awesome video and very informative. I love that how easy you make it to understand. Thanks again.
