Can't say I've done that...I think it might be a bit viscous for that. One can lower its viscosity by warming the epoxy a little, but that will shorten its 30 minute working time.

It will dry too thick I think for the crystals but you could try a sample to see if it meets your approval it will dry clear.

For touch up it can be used if you are doing cold bluing but it will not exactly match a flat black finish. I re-blued a Russian Mosin Nagant and the finish came out good but only because of extensive prepping the surface. If the surface is not prepped enough then you will end up with a rusty reddish looking color.

It's not designed for that application this is a silicone used in freezers and glass case refrigerators that contain food. I suppose you could use it and don't think it will harm anything but I don't believe its paintable. Why not a latex caulk from Loews its cheaper maybe 3 bucks or so

This glue would work perfectly well for that purpose. However, it is not clear and will dry with a brownish tone to it so any excess on the figurine would be quite visible.

You should be able to...as long as it's properly primed before use (to ensure it doesn't smudge, ruin the drawings/illustrations).

You should be able to, I've even applied it to factory paint that has been roughed up with some 80 grit. I haven't had an issue with bonding, this stuff really spreads nice, and bonds well. Work FAST is sets up incredibly quick.

You have to sculpt whatever you want to sculpt on the figure first and let it dry. Then it can be painted. If you let it dry before attaching . it will be useless and wont stick.

I don't see any problem if the wood is first sealed with poly. I used mine on a headstock of a guitar which I sealed with Tru-oil. You just need a sealer to prevent the moisture from soaking into the wood. As far as removable, well these are just like any other water decal. Once it's set then it's stuck and will have to be scraped or sanded off. I did find I had better results by not over soaking them. Just soak then enough where it first becomes loose from the backing paper

Yes, Mod Podge can be used to seal acrylic paintings on panel. However, you may find that it will remain soft and sticky even after it dries.

it might work / painted surface could be any formulation and this stuff will bond with latex acrylics best / go over surface with steel wool or scotch or sanding pad to get a fresh clean surface then coat with vermont stuff / 3 or more coats ,foam brush ,wipe on or spray ,fine scotch pad before final coat / good luck / what-a-ya got to lose ;Ron ps if it doesn't work try a light coat of shellac before the vermont

That would be along the lines of what this sprayer was meant for. However, I'd be inclined to believe that it's better suited for traditional enamels such as you could buy in quart cans at a home center. I don't know that I'd want to spray any hot lacquers through it, or anything too exotic such as two part isocyanates or anything else where you'll want to be wearing a 'space suit' and breathing through a supplied air respirator. Now, those could work! But I've never tried it, and I'd want to hear from someone who has before attempting it. Rustoleum or the like, absolutely. Do be sure to properly thin whatever you spray, of course.

Hi, that is such a great idea. I don't see why not since you can do anything with chocolate. If you want to show the brain inside I would recommend to put them after. If you have a sharp knife just make a little hole in the skull by shaving the chocolate carefully and use melted chocolate to glue it. I made jell-o ones with clear gelatin and put what you like in it. This time I am decorating the skulls for "Dia de los muertos" the day of the death a Mexican tradition and the kids love to make them look in youtube and you'll see how nice they are. I hope I was a help, good luck and have tons of fun

Stuart, you should be able to paint over the surface just fine. I woulove suggest you get an ultra fine sandpaper and scour the entire surface prior to using the steel wool to prep. That should remove any heavy imperfections give you a clean finish! Make sure you have a respirator!!! I attempted to use this without and my lungs suffered for days lol never did that again.... ;-)

Yes. I did using FolkArt brand paint (not the outdoor kind because it's too watery) and coating it with Krylon sealer. Looks amazing.

I don't see why not. Just find paint that will be compatible with ceramics.

Yes u can. U used this for a mask and was using fabric paint paint underneath as the mask warmed the paint under neather would remain

I've had no problem whether adding MS to Apoxie or cooked Super Sculpey or Sergent Art "Sculpt it!' (which shrinks horribly, so I never use for finishing). I have also used MS on cast resin sculptures of mine that I have modified to have different poses and musculature to make a herd and never had a problem there either.
