They are similar in that they are both urethane-based wood sealers. However, the balance of ingredients in them differ. Specifically, Polycrylic is an acrylic and urethane blended sealer.

Bonding primers are simply binding agents. They act like a sort of glue in between the base coat (vinyl decal) and the top coat (polyurethane/polycrylic). Now, when it comes to woodworking, one of the easiest-to-use bonding primers you can use is Dewaxed shellac. Dewaxed shellac is a naturally-sourced, yet incredibly sticky, wood finish. It’s a glo...

But if you use a water-based polyurethane sealer, there’s little difference in performance between water-based polyurethane and polycrylic. However, if you were to use an oil-based polyurethane, this polyurethane i...
1). Polycrylic is a water-based sealer. It doesn’t turn yellow with age and dries very quickly.2). Both Polyurethane and Polycrylic will eventually peel off Vinyl Decal if you do not apply a bonding primer between them.3).

Take your plaque outside and spray the entire thing, including around the edges. After it dries, you will see that you have an amazing seal over that initial. If you want to seal it two or three times go ahead. The more the better! Just make sure that you allow at least 30-60 minutes in between coats.
