PVA glue

Post by Moonspinner »

Can you use a solution of PVA glue to stick foil onto tissue paper?

If so, what solution would be best? 10% PVA?

Thank you.

I have tried PVA a few times with different ratios, and it seems to be very hit and miss. It's not an exact science, but 10-20% PVA should be ok. It also depends what type of PVA you are using.

Pritt Stick PVA? I uce that all the time for papercrafting. I have never tried to use it to make tissue foil though. I usually use a massive vat of industrial PVA from B&Q.
