Can Diamond painting be washed?
Wash Drills Regularly Fill a bowl with warm water and then add a bit of dish soap and sanitizer. Place your drills on a mesh strainer and lower them into the water. Allow them to sit in the mixture for a while—somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes.

What can you use instead of wax for diamond painting?
Blu tack is a clay or putty-like substance that can be rolled up and reused many times, making it durable and convenient as you don’t need to replace it often. People usually use blu tack to stick posters or photos to the wall, but you can use it in lieu of wax when completing your diamond painting.
Can you seal a diamond painting?
We, at Diamond Art Club, do NOT recommend sealing our diamond paintings as it’s not necessary to keep our diamond drills in place given the quality of our canvas and poured glue adhesive. Sealing your official Diamond Art Club painting will also void your warranty should anything happen to it.
Is Diamond painting hard to do?
It’s extremely difficult to work on a craft as precise as diamond art when there are folds in the canvas. The flat underside of a resin diamond just won’t adhere unless the canvas is smooth. This is particularly apparent with partial drill paintings in which most of the art is canvas without diamond mosaic.
Can you roll up a finished diamond painting?
Rolling up your diamond art is a great way to store it and protect the rhinestones from falling off or getting damaged, but it is possible that the canvas can be curved when you open it up. This is more likely the longer you leave the piece rolled up and the more tightly you roll it up when you do so.
How do you remove hair from a diamond painting?
But make sure they don’t make a quick jump onto an exposed sticky area of your canvas, or you’ll have to spend time de-furring your canvas (image credit: Sue Small). PRO TIP: To remove hair, paper, etc. from your canvas, wipe down the affected area with a wet wipe or moist towelette.
How do you get the wax out of the diamond painting pen?
Tweezers can be used to straighten out your diamonds or pick up any stray drills. They are also super handy in cleaning out the wax at each end of the pen. For more advanced diamond painters, the tweezers can be used alternatively to your stylus pen to actually do the painting.
What kind of glue is used on diamond painting?
There are two types of adhesive used for diamond painting: double stick tape and canvas glue. Whichever you choose, they should be clear and have a strong tack while also allowing for repositioning.
