Hello, I'm an expert in crafting materials and techniques. Let's dive into your question about the water-resistance of Mod Podge.

Mod Podge is a versatile decoupage medium and sealer that is often used in crafting to adhere materials like paper, fabric, and other porous items to various surfaces. It can also be used as a sealer to protect finished projects.

Mod Podge is not inherently waterproof. While it does dry clear and can provide a protective layer, it is not designed to withstand prolonged exposure to water or submersion. If you're looking to create a water-resistant or water-resistant surface, you would need to apply a clear, waterproof sealant on top of the Mod Podge after it has fully dried.

For outdoor projects or items that will be exposed to moisture, it's recommended to use a product specifically formulated for water resistance, such as a waterproof spray or a sealer designed for outdoor use.

In summary, while Mod Podge can help in adhering materials and provide a degree of protection, it should not be relied upon for waterproofing. Always topcoat with a waterproof sealant for projects that will be in contact with water.

You can use it with your children without fear. But all these things mean that it's not totally waterproof. Even the Outdoor formula is only highly water-resistant. If you want to make your project waterproof, I recommend a clear, outdoor (or Enamel) acrylic sealer when your project is complete.
