Price: 9.83 USD
Availability: InStock

After countless craft projects left vulnerable to dust, fingerprints, and wear, we finally found the perfect solution. Aleene’s Spray Finish 6oz Acrylic Sealer (Clear-Matte) has become our go-to protective finish, and after thorough testing across multiple craft surfaces, we’re convinced it deserves a permanent spot in every creative’s supply cabinet.

Our Hands-On Experience with Aleene’s Spray Finish

When we first got our hands on this 6-ounce can of Aleene’s Spray Finish, we were immediately impressed by its lightweight design and easy-grip contours. The matte clear formula promises to protect without that glossy shine that can sometimes overpower delicate craft projects—a claim we were eager to put to the test.

We applied it to various surfaces including paper crafts, wood items, fabric creations, and mixed media projects. The fine mist applicator distributed the product evenly without any pooling or dripping that can ruin hours of creative work. What stood out immediately was how quickly it dried—within 15-20 minutes our projects were touch-dry, though we gave them a full 24 hours to cure completely for our durability tests.

Superior Protection Without Altering Your Design

Unlike other sealers we’ve tried, Aleene’s Matte finish truly maintains the original appearance of your projects. The dried finish is virtually invisible—providing protection without changing colors or adding unwanted shine. This was particularly impressive on our watercolor pieces and photo transfers, where preserving the original aesthetic was crucial.

We deliberately tested durability by exposing sealed and unsealed samples to water droplets, light handling, and even some gentle scrubbing. The difference was remarkable—unsealed pieces showed immediate damage while Aleene’s-protected surfaces remained pristine.

Key Features That Make Aleene’s Stand Out

True Matte Finish: No unwanted shine or gloss—just invisible protection
Non-Yellowing Formula: Even after accelerated aging tests, we saw no discoloration
Water-Resistant: Creates an effective barrier against moisture and humidity
Quick-Drying: Touch-dry in minutes, fully cured within 24 hours
Fine Mist Spray: Distributes evenly without drips or pools
Archival Quality: Perfect for preserving keepsakes and heirloom projects
Indoor/Outdoor Use: Versatile enough for both interior and exterior applications

Versatility Across Multiple Craft Surfaces

During our testing period, we applied Aleene’s Spray Finish to an impressive range of materials:

Surface	Performance	Notes
Paper	Excellent	No warping, preserves color brilliance
Wood	Superior	Penetrates well, enhances natural grain subtly
Fabric	Very Good	Maintains flexibility while adding protection
Clay	Excellent	Seals porous surfaces effectively
Mixed Media	Outstanding	Unifies different elements without changing appearance

Transform Your Crafting Experience Today

What truly impressed us was how this single product eliminated the need for multiple specialized sealers. Whether you’re scrapbooking, creating home décor, or working on seasonal crafts, Aleene’s Spray Finish delivers consistent, reliable results.

We particularly appreciate the can design, which includes a specialized nozzle that prevents clogging—a common frustration with spray sealers. Even after letting it sit for weeks between uses, we experienced no nozzle blockage when shaken properly before application.

Pro Tips From Our Testing

Shake the can vigorously for a full minute before spraying for the most consistent application
Apply in thin, even coats rather than one heavy application
Hold the can 10-12 inches from your project for optimal coverage
Allow 2-3 hours between coats for best results on highly absorbent surfaces
Spray in a well-ventilated area or outdoors on a windless day
