Good Stuff

August 26, 2015

Size: 16 Oz

I just recently learned about Mod Podge and I love it! I was tasked with trying to come up with a cute idea for my daughters gymnastics team. They got new warm-ups and red glitter back packs this year and we wanted some cute matching shoes. We originally thought about bows, but after watching a few videos and searching the web I decided to try to add glitter to some slide ins. Well I must say they came out great!! The shoes were on clearance for $3, I bought some Mod Podge, red glitter and presto - I'm the new Mom hero! Everyone loves them and just in time for our meet on Saturday!!

How I did it:
Used sandpaper to lightly sand the area of the shoe that I planned to glitter
Placed the shoe on news paper
Used a brush to put on a thick layer of Mod Podge
Sprinkle the glitter onto the shoe and the Mod Podge
Let sit for 5 minutes
Tap the excess glitter off of the shoe
Add another layer of Mod Podge to seal and keep the glitter in place
Let the shoe dry over night

If using as a puzzle saver, use a squeegee!

March 15, 2017

Size: 16 OzVerified Purchase

I purchased this to glue a puzzle. One of the other reviews suggested using a squeegee and that was the best advice ever. It only took 2 coats to seal my puzzle and you can barely even tell it is glued. The white consistency helps you tell if you missed any spots, but it dries clear. I can imagine if you use a brush, you will probably end up with brush marks. Using a squeegee ensures there are no marks. Although the instructions indicate that the finish may be "tacky" and to seal with a clear sealer, I didn't find this to be true for the two coats I applied to my puzzle. Out of the 16 oz bottle, I'm guessing I used about 1 oz per coat using the squeegee.

Edited to include a picture: I wanted to show how much I used for one coat and what it looked like before and after it dried. I tried to get close ups of the finished texture but it was kind of difficult. I wiped the squeegee back and forth a lot over the entire puzzle to get excess glue off and remove lines of excess glue. It does dry fairly quickly, so I would make sure to work at a quick pace.

How to use the matte finish

April 7, 2011

Size: 16 Oz

I am a paper crafter (not scrapbooker) who uses Mod Podge by the gallon. This stuff can be used for adhesion, sealing, decoupage, and applying dimensional textures to a certain extent. After using Mod Podge for many years, the matte finish in the yellow bottle has become my favorite, although all Mod Podge products are great and come recommended by me. The trick is to know which finish of Mod Podge to use for your needs.

As a paper crafter, I prefer the matte finish because it has the most durable and well textured finish for decoupage and sealing my paper projects. I prefer to use a sponge brush to apply this to my crafts. The glossy and satin formulas can leave sealed projects just ever so slightly tacky to the touch once completely dry. If I use the glossy or satin finish to coat, say, a decoupaged notebook - after letting the finish dry completely I could still stack finished notebooks to store them and they might stick together. So I wouldn't use those formulas for projects that need more durability and protection. (For another example, I'll chose matte when I decoupage a surface of furniture, as it might get a lot of wear and items set upon it each day. But for an art project that will merely hang on the wall I'm more likely to chose the glossy or satin.) The matte finish has preformed the best for my decoupage projects. That said, you can always use a clear acrylic spray finish on top of your mod podge to get rid of any remaining "tackiness" no matter which formula you might use.

The matte finish, obviously, has a dull non-shiny appearance once dry. If you would like a shiny finish, choose the gloss Mod Podge finish in the classic red bottle. Then there is the satin finish in the orange (or purple for hard coat) bottle, which has a slight haze in it's finish and will thus show brush strokes and scratches less often than matte & gloss.

Of course there are also several other Mod Podge products now on the market, as the crafting industry is booming these days and they are broadening their spectrum of products, which is wonderful for us crafters! I recommend any of their formulas, honestly, just research which one best suits your project before purchasing.

Great for My Mini Pieces of Art

May 7, 2017

Size: 16 OzVerified Purchase

I cover light switch plates and outlet plates with high end pictures and sell them on Etsy. I love this product as it dries clear with a bit of a shine. So, it's not totally matte finish but for me it's better because it brings out the color in the picture. The picture actually looks better after this has been applied. Sometimes I may leave a brush stroke or two but that's my fault for using to much of it. When applied in thin coats it dries smooth without visible brush strokes. It's perfect for what I do. I've also tried it on wood boxes and the results were awesome. Easy to work with. I am able to manipulate the paper after the back of the picture has been coated to fit the plates and to go nicely around the corners of the plates without drying out or ripping. I've tried the satin and the gloss just to see the difference between the three and Matte is the clear winner by far over the other two. This is the essential product I need to create my mini pieces of art.

Do some research before your first time using the product.

February 11, 2018

Size: 16 OzVerified Purchase

This was my first time using Mod Podge and it worked well. I'm glad I did a little reading and research before I started my project as I've read that the matte finish dries well without being tacky. After using Mod Podge to apply a picture to a wooden surface, I let it dry per the instructions and sealed over it with an acrylic sealer. The Mod Podge goes on thickly and you have to use patience and a good brush to apply it without leaving brush strokes. I was somewhat leery about sanding the dried brush strokes out, after the first coat, as I did not want to damage the photo I had just applied. But with a little patience and some knowledge aforethought, my project was completed acceptably. I would recommend sourcing this product locally as you can see from the picture the problem that I encountered.
