    You should get a piece of dowel rod the same size as your opening. You may have to put a little tape over the end to insert into your bulb. This will give you more control. You can then put it into something to hold it to dry I use a scrap wood drill holes into it to insert dowel rod to dry.

    Great testing. If you spray Kamar by Krylon first to seal the inks, you should be able to use the Polycrylic afterwards.

    You might consider a Dow rod that fits into the ornament to assist you in the inking process.

    I saw a video where she wore a rubber glove with a humid rag and put a bit a of the polyurethane on the rag. She applied a thin cover by rubbing gently over the ornament. She let dry and repeated a couple more times. It's worth the try.

    The spray works really well, if you do several fog coats. Spraying always works better. Thank you for the video, nice to know brushing reactivates it.

    You can use spray polyacrylic with minimal activation if you spray thins coats and follow the can instructions carefully it will work fine. I have used it. Perhaps not if you're planning to sell them. I did have one ornament reactivate because I wasn't paying attention and sprayed too thick, and too close so you have to be careful. However in a pinch, IF you're careful it will work.

    If you have an airbrush, and you start with a light coat you can airbrush it on. Also if you mix the ink with polycrylic (I use a 1 to 1). Makes really vibrate translucent colors.

    @Clara Lawrence thank you again for doing this test! I didn't use it, I bought Krylon COLORmaxx Flat Crystal Clear which I didn't want but it was all Lowe's had in that brand that would be close to a matte. It made my damn ink reactivate! Now I don't know if I should get the one you showed in the video or just do the Polyacrylic. I ended up having a couple extra days but want to be done DONE by Christmas Eve.

    • @ClaraLawrence
      @ClaraLawrence  4 роки тому +1

      Someone in the comments mentioned they had success with the Polyacrylic spray. Just do some light coats and build on that. I also would do a test one before committing. You should know right away. Good luck.

    I've never used alcohol inks, about to try on some ornaments. A question I cannot seem to find an answer to is, if I use the inks INSIDE the ornament does it need any kind of sealer? Before or after, like using polyacrylic in bulbs before using glitter. I've done that to great success. I worry the alcohol inks will break up like acrylic does/can. Thanks to anyone for any insight.

    • @ClaraLawrence
      @ClaraLawrence  2 роки тому

      If you add poly acrylic to the inside after the alcohol ink, you will have a reaction. I ended up with super light coats to make it work. I honestly don't know how you would seal it.

      @tracyfinnin9634 2 роки тому

      I use alcohol ink and/or glitter and/or paint inside plastic and glass ornaments all the time. I have never needed to seal the outside because the material the ball is made of is already shiny and protected.

      ​@@tracyfinnin9634hello Tracy, do I understand correctly that u don't need to seal inside or outside when using alcohol ink and glitter on the inside? Will the glitter stay put? I saw a comment on another video that someone sealed with polycyclic and the plastic just broke to pieces afterwards...

    • @tracyfinnin9634

      @@neethusebastian3163 you absolutely do not need to seal anything on the inside of an ornament. However, you will need to seal it if you do anything on the outside, whether it is a plastic or a glass ornament. Do not use poly acrylic liquid to seal the outside because it causes your alcohol inks to run. You’re better off spraying a sealant on the outside and then one of the recommended varnishes from the other comments on this post. I frankly avoid doing any kind of inks on the outside, because I have very bad luck spraying any kind of sealant or varnish on the outside without getting a kind of speckled effect that I do not like.
      If I’m doing the outside of an ornament, I prefer to pour different colors of acrylic paint. If you do a UA-cam search for acrylic pouring on ornaments you will see lots of examples and tips. And, those can be sealed by dunking your ornament into a container of Minwax water-based polycrilic and then just hanging it to dry.

      Also, asking for more tips...😜 have u ever tried chalk paint to get that ceramic effect? If so, is it better to spray or brush?
