Is Mod Podge the same as PVA glue?
Mod Podge has PVA glue in it and it’s similar to Elmer’s glue/Regular PVA glue but it has various sealers and varnishes. Mod Podge works way better on ink-jet printed surfaces than watered-down PVA glue.
Does Mod Podge waterproof?
Well, there are a few things you should know about this formula. First of all, Mod Podge Outdoor is not waterproof. It is HIGHLY water resistant. This means that if you want a decoupage item to sit on a covered porch where it is not exposed to weather 24 hours a day, you are fine using this formula by itself.

How long does Mod Podge take to cure?
What is cure time for Mod Podge (how long should I let it dry)? It feels dry within an hour, but I wouldn’t hang up a project or use it until it’s been dry for 24 hours. For Hard Coat, the recommended dry time is 72 hours.
How many coats of Mod Podge should I use?
You can use two or more coats depending on the type of affect you are trying to achieve. If you want a soft smooth surface with no ridges, apply at least 5 to 6 coats.
