What this decoupage glue and sealer does

Crystal Clear Matte, 4 oz comes off our line ready to work. The 4 fl oz bottle suits a weekend project or two.

One bottle does the gluing and the sealing, which is why our label says all-in-one. It dries clear, so whatever you glued down keeps its own colour.

We tuned the dry time short: you are not standing over the piece all evening. Our own surface chart lists it for appliques, beads and gems, canvas and ceramics. Keep the lid on tight and it will outlast the project.

This is the part of the line most crafting starts with. One bottle of Mod Podge decoupage glue is also the sealant and the finish, which is the whole point of it: you brush it under the paper to glue, and over the paper to seal. It dries clear, sands smooth and leaves a durable surface on wood, card or canvas. The variety of sheens is there so the finish matches the piece rather than the other way round.
