Is this paper waterproof?

Troubleshooting

Paper is wrinkling while applying

Ensure you are brushing from the center of the paper piece outward toward the edges to smooth out air bubbles.

Paper feels sticky even after drying

You may have applied too much glue. Use a thinner layer next time or apply a coat of varnish over the top to seal the surface.

Edges are peeling away from the object

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned of dust or grease before application and verify that the edges were firmly sealed with glue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin your project, you will need a brush, your chosen object,Décopatch glue, and a finishing varnish. First, tear the paper into small, manageable pieces. Apply a thin layer of glue to the base material using your brush. Place a piece of paper on the glued area and apply another layer of glue directly over the top, brushing from the center outward to remove any trapped air bubbles. Once you have covered the object, allow it to dry completely. For added protection and a glossy finish, apply a final coat of Décopatch varnish once the glue is fully set. Store remaining sheets in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture damage.
