Necronomicon: Book Of The Dead

Step 8Seal The Deal

Seal The Deal
Once it's completely dried you can now seal everything down using decoupage sealer. I used Mod Podge. Take your brush and cover the entire book in sealer. Mod Podge paints on white but dries clear, so don't freak out when you first put it on. I covered the front and back, the inside stained cover, and all of the burned edges. I'd do one coat and then let it dry for 20 minutes then go back over it with another coat. When you're letting it dry, you're gonna wanna clean out your brush each time cuz once it dries it's a pain to remove from your brush.

I did about 5 to 6 coats of sealer around the entire book. After it's dried completely all of the paint is protected, the stained parts, each section that was burned and has black pieces to it are now sealed in and hardened. And now you've got yourself a solid prop.
