Got a little project that I need to seal up. What are some proven sealers for acrylic paint over rawhide?

Tru-Oil. Done it on a few bows.

I like the Tru-oil over acrylic paint. Then you can add other types if desired.

Tru-Oil will soak into the rawhide and it makes some rawhide transparent. I like that look better than plain rawhide but your paint will cover it well. I used acrylic craft paints from WalMart.
