Morphology

sealer = seal (transparent) = seal + er

Instrumental formation from the verb 'seal' (a product that seals surfaces) is a regular, predictable derivation.

Etymology

Sealer comes from seal, meaning 'to close' or 'to protect', plus -er meaning 'something that does', like a lid that closes a jar. So a sealer is a product that closes pores and protects a surface before painting.
