I created a memento of my canine's paw print earlier than we stated our remaining good bye and wish to completely seal it whereas preserving as a lot element potential.

I additionally need to make it sturdy sufficient to outlive a brief fall (like a drop from an evening stand) and make it waterproof towards unintended spills, proximity to a humidifier or lavatory steam, and call with sweaty arms.

Sadly it’s made out of Crayola air dry clay and I simply came upon that it’s identified to disintegrate because it ages. The official firm web site recommends acrylic varnish–which received't waterproof it, whereas others recommend polyurethane, out of doors wall paint, waterproof wooden glue, dishwasher secure Mod Podge, and many others., however I'm afraid they could erase an excessive amount of element.

I do have a Liquitex matte gel and 3M basic goal spray adhesive and I'm considering of testing them on some leftover clay.

I even have an Alex Plus acrylic latex caulk with silicone–which I'm anticipating to be thick in consistency, in addition to a Liquitex matte gel and Golden satin glazing liquid, however the again of each bottles state "don’t use as a varnish."

To these extra skilled with these supplies, please let me know what you assume could most intently obtain my desired outcome.
