I am painting a wood toy box. Just finished the 2nd coat of Kilz. Can I paint using acrylic craft paints then a coat of clear coat to seal it?

I don't see why not. Kilz is a good all purpose primer. make sure to use a good clear coat, maybe a varnish.

Excellent suggestion to use the varnish as a protective coating. I find when we glaze kitchen cabinets, using a high quality waterbourne Polyurethane varnish does not change the tones of the finish work. The varnish I use comes from Sherwin Williams.
