Can this product be used to seal printed images onto wooden toys?I would either first use an inkjet printer to print an image onto glossy paper and glue to the wooden toy. Or print the image onto sticker paper (matte vinyl) and stick onto the wood. I'd like to then seal the image permanently to the wood with a non toxic sealer. Would this product work for any of those processes? SAMPLE - AFM SafeCoat, AcriGlaze, Matte Wood Stains & Sealers

We honestly do not know and recommend you test it first (we sell sample sizes for this purpose). AcriGlaze being a water-based product it *might* comprise the inkjet printed paper and ink. Also uncertain on the matte vinyl sticker front. Based on how the wooden object/toy is handled or used after everything comes together, it may be better to test something with more abrasion resistance like Polyureseal BP which was formulated to coat things that get a lot of abuse, like floors. With the same "might compromise paper/printing" caveat above as it is also water-based.
