A good friend of mine is a professional scrapper and she told me to use Delta Ceramcoat Indoor/Outdoor Gloss Varnish for protecting finished hybrid projects.
Has anyone ever tried this and been successful with it, especially with printed hybrid products?
I wanted something that will dry hard and really protect my stuff and she said this would work wonderfully as long as it doesnt make printed items run, and that it dries fast so you have to work quickly when applying.
She does Christmas ornaments out of dominoes and she uses only the Varnish for adhesive AND a sealer. Her stuff is gorgeous but it's also store bought paper products.
She also says that if you use Mod Podge to adhere stuff to the cardboard it has to be completely dry before using the Ceramcoat.
I haven't tried it yet because I'm a little afraid but has anyone had any experience with the Ceramcoat? I know Mod Podge can be tacky and I dont want my projects to ever be sticky in any kind of temperature.
I think I might pick up a big bottle of it next time I'm in the craft section at Walmart.
The last sealer I got was from Hobby Lobby. It was a spray sealer, cost me $5.49 and was supposed to be permanent and water resistant. When I sprayed it on, it looked as if I hadn't ever sprayed it with anything, and it made the glue streaks underneath my hybrid paper layer see through to the top.
This was after 2 coats.
