Hi

I have made a mosaic using Mod Podge glue over card and paper and want to now use glass cast over it. Will they react badly together? Or is mod podge a suitable surface to take glass cast?

Many thanks

Hi,

We don't see any problem with coating epoxy over the mod podge.  Similar projects are done with PVA glue  with no problem.   In fact for your project, you want to ensure you get a good coating of the mod podge to seal in the  card and paper.  This is because, lower grade cards and paper  have a tendency to soak up liquid  and go translucent - imagine wet newspaper.  So a sealing coat of mod podge or PVA glue  will protect the paper from the resin soaking in and thus you can maintain  the original  finish.   If you have some spares knocking around, i might be a good idea to knock up a test piece to experiment with mod podge and the resin so you get the right amount of coverage without the resin soaking in.
