The First Edition Deco Mache Gloss Glue & Varnish is both a high-quality adhesive and a protective top coat, simplifying your crafting process and saving time and money.

Perfect Partner for Deco Mache Papers

This glue is specially formulated to work in harmony with Deco Mache papers, but it also works beautifully with:

• Tissue paper

• Wrapping paper

• Craft napkins

• Rice paper

• Thin printed sheets

It dries clear, allowing the vibrant designs of your decorative paper to shine through with no cloudiness or yellowing over time. Whether you're upcycling a plain object or customising a gift box, the results are clean, professional, and visually stunning.

Wide Range of Surfaces

First Edition Deco Mache Gloss Glue & Varnish adheres to an impressive range of surfaces, including:

• Wood & MDF – Perfect for trays, boxes, and decorative plaques

• Glass – Create custom vases, candle holders, or jars

• Canvas – Add texture and layers to your artwork

• Cardboard & Paper Mache – Lightweight décor, masks, ornaments

• Ceramic & Terracotta – Beautify plant pots, tiles, and more

• Metal – Personalise tins, pencil holders, and containers

Its strong bonding power ensures paper adheres smoothly, with minimal wrinkling or bubbling. Once dry, the glossy coating provides a protective barrier that resists fingerprints, smudges, and light water exposure.

Easy to Use – Great for All Skill Levels

It’s perfect for crafters, artists, students, DIY enthusiasts, and even children (with supervision), offering a mess-free, beginner-friendly crafting experience.

How to Use:

1. Prepare your surface – Clean and dry the item you want to decorate.

2. Apply adhesive layer – Brush the glue onto the area where your paper will be placed.

3. Position your paper – Carefully lay the paper and smooth it out to eliminate air bubbles.

4. Seal with varnish – Once in place, brush a thin layer of glue over the top to seal. Let dry and apply additional coats if needed.

Tip: Allow each coat to dry fully before adding another for the best glossy, smooth finish.
