Say I put a layer of this on a small piece of furniture then add glitter and another layer over that. Do I still have to use an acrylic seal?

I have done this process myself and I didn't use a different acrylic layer. I did put a second layer after the glitter just to get a smoother finish. I was happy with just using the Mod Podge Hard Coat.coat.

It would depend on the piece of furniture, if it is something like a table that will be used often, I would put a protective coat on it....however, you can put multiple layers of mod podge and sand between layers, put your glitter on before the final layer

No, it is the finisher. Once you have created your design and applied jewels or whatever else, you apply it on top to seal the design and any ornaments for a clear gloss glasslike finish that saves the life of the polish and nail.

It depends on how much space you need to seal. It adheres well and we are using it on the bottom of our furniture to keep it from scratching our wood floors and it works well.

you can mix acrylic but it has to be oil based and not water based if it is water based it will become a clump so I do not recommend you do so As for how long it stays glowing that depends on the light source that you would have on it along with a UV light I do suggest that you get a black light/ uv light if you do not have oneI hope this is helpful to you good luck^-^

I would use a light minwax for a sealer, and some sheen, the darker is for an antique look, if you decide on the darker, use Very sparingly

What did you inlay with? Directions for the product say wood needs to be sealed to avoid bubbles. I covered a wood table with a glass mosaic, grouted around the glass, sealed with a mosaic sealer and then poured the resin over it. There were still bubbles so I used a crafting propane torch to work out the bubbles which is also explained in the product's instructions. Bubbles are inevitable and need to be "blown" out.

Yes, apply carefully because it lightly melts and discolors the surface of acrylic.

Frankly I don't think you can. Acrylic adhesives function more like a weld than gluing. They are a solvent for acrylic so any errant drips will actually disolve some of the acrylic...

Yes you can seal it to protect it but not varnish! Find a good electronics store (not Radio Shack) Someone that knows electronics there are a couple of different products that will work but they are not cheap. good luck

Yes. No problem. Paint shops might say the urethane clear might not lay properly over acrylic lacquer but it does. Just give your Duplicolor several days to cure to be sure.

Yes, it will stick better to the nail. You have to put a top coat after placing the glitter or anything in order to stop it from falling off.

This is my favorite reference guide: (http://modpodgerocksblog.com/2009/07/mod-podge-formula-guide-youve-been.html). That said, I think I would go with the Mod Podge Super Gloss Acrylic Sealer.

Yes, I mod podged my images onto them. You could also spray with acrylic sealer. Either of those would affect the absorbency though. Would keep the wet off your furniture,but you might have moisture on the coaster. Mi used for non coaster art projects.

The nails are like indented (I guess is the word) so I guess it depends all on the size of the acrylic nail. But the material seems like if you have the right glue, you'll be all good.

yes, I paint in acrylics and it works very well. I also found putting glass in the bottom helps.

You should do a test section on the plastic to see if it will bond to it. This glaze is intended for Sculpey or Fimo clay, but I have bonded these clays to surfaces such as canvass, wood, snow boards, skateboards and surfboards and it has always worked. But some plastics are really glossy and the glaze may not adhere to it...it will either peel off or come off easily if you scratch it with your nail. Another option if you are bonding the clay to plastic: use the Sculpey glaze on the clay parts only, then switch to using RUST-OLEUM Ultra Cover -GLOSS CLEAR (Home Depot) it bonds to most surfaces and looks the same as the Sculpey glaze, you will not see a difference. This combination has always worked for me. Good luck!

Hi againGood question and very important. You really do not want to use a GLOSS resin as a laminating resin because it has a surfacing agent mixed-in. It can cause delaminations. Polyester LAMINATING would be the call
