Can you use sculpey glaze with polymer clay?

Can I use nail polish to glaze my polymer clay?

• So I make minature polymer clay kawai stuff and in the craft stores around me only have sculpey satin glaze and I really don't like it. An I heard you could use clear top coat for nail polish as a glaze. So is that true? And if it is true, do I put the glaze on before or after I bake it?? Thanks!

• Answer:

  You can use it but it will yellow over time. Look in your craft store for glossy Mod Podge (red bottle) but this stuff can be finiky. If not cured all the way it gets sticky so the best way to cure it is to hang your peices to dry, and leave them hanging for 48hrs or if it really humid it can take up to a week and it won't survive prolonged contact with water. Another option is to look into your local hardware store for pledge with future floor polish, coat your items then put them back in the oven at 275 farenheit for 10 minutes then dunk them into ice water. The last option I can think of is a spray acrylic finish.(also found at hardware stores) Just spray it over your creations and hang to dry or just spray one side, let dry then spray the other. I hope all this info helps. Any of these options will work (I use Mod Podge) I also apologize for any typos or misspelled words.. I hate phone keyboards Good Luck!!!
