Perfect Paper Adhesive

Perfect Paper Adhesive (PPA) is a transparent, UV protective, acid free, archival, non-toxic, acrylic adhesive and medium. PPA is available in either gloss or matte, and has been extensively studio-tested on literally every kind of paper, plastic, metal, wood and glass. PPA is superior to any other acrylic medium or adhesive on the market. PPA is substantially different than most other quality wet adhesives because it is non-sticky when wet and non-tacky when dry. Uses include collage, assemblage, decoupage, rubber stamping, embossing, scrapbooking, book arts, as a dry pigment medium, glazing and all paper arts & crafts.

Features & Benefits:

Archival Acid Free: Fine art materials and acid free art papers maintain their original integrity because PPA is acid free and archival. Common materials can be separated from one another with PPA, encouraging creative usage of disparate materials. Artisans can be assured that artwork, memory albums and other archival papers are safe from acids by using this neutral pH adhesive.

UV Resistant: PPA provides excellent protection from UV light rays, which discolor and fade artwork, craft papers, photographs, flowers and paints.

Non-tacky: Having no appreciable tack, PPA allows for ease of use, without pulling, tack or drag, particularly with delicate papers and flowers, while allowing papers to be lifted, moved and manipulated, while still wet, aiding in ease of compositional placement of papers by the artist. PPA-Matte dries to a matte finish which can be left as the final step or top coat with PPA-Gloss. Both matte and gloss dry to a non-tacky, hard finish which resists moisture.

Light-bodied: The ease of mixability of PPA with dry pigments, paints and mediums creates a smoother, lighter consistency to viscous, thicker or condensed products.

Transparent: As a finish, PPA allows art materials and finished artwork to maintain their original color, character and texture.

Water Resistant: PPA is a particularly useful finish for art not placed under protective glass. It is excellent for arts & crafts that must be in moisture laden areas and has an excellent wipeability for ease in cleaning.

Extender: PPA mixes readily and thins acrylics, latex and other paints and mediums without changing the consistency or color value. PPA is suitable for washes and glaze applications while maintaining all the attributes of the product.

Flexible: PPA dries to a flexible finish, making it the ideal adhesive for book making, greeting cards, pad making and collage art.

Medium: PPA is a versatile art medium. In addition to the above mentioned uses:
-Sizing for absorbent papers, allowing watercolor and rubber stamping techniquesto be done on previously unworkable papers.

-Sizing in pulp baths for paper making.

-Resists on paper, glass and acrylic for various art techniques.

-PPA can be used as a carrier and a method for adhering thermographic powders in painterly techniques.
