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.
