Using Mont Marte Clear glue because Gilly Kube uses and it works well but have not used yet with silicone. Love to mix the clear glue as you mentioned. This video was so helpful. I really think that the Craftsmart White Glue beat out Glue All in your use with silicone. Is there a chance you could do a head to head with these two without silicone? Thank you for all you do! Saves us so much time and expense. You are amazing! Daughter is a Chemistry teacher, not a painter, but watches all your videos.

I wonder if the silicone acts differently with the clear glue and that's why the swipes didn't work. I don't use silicone myself - I've lots of animals that get into stuff and chew and no room yet to isolate for pouring - so seeing the school glue do so well was awesome for me! Also I thought all the paintings were good despite the purpose of testing. A lot of the pouring I do is just water based with various thicknesses and different paint types (just started using satin and metallics). Out of all the pours I've done (And I am a beginner/newb, only 2 months or so doing this) I have one that I think turned out amazing. Anyway, THANK YOU FOR THIS; this helped me a lot for future projects!

Lol! I've done the same with glues. Looked at floetrol ingredients, it's abbreviated as MIT/CIT. Amazingly some builders PVA is exactly the same (& much cheaper than Elmers etc. Goes much further.) Just needs lots of dilution with distilled water which I warm to mix quicker. I've added drops of polypropylene glycol to some of my pouring medium for flow enhancement & cells ( really cheap liquid used for home made vaping liquids, not like silicone, doesn't need cleaning before varnishing) love experimenting! Great video!

I used tacky glue just because that's all I had. I mixed a little water until a thin pancake consistency. I poured the tacky glue and water mixture in the center of my small wood piece. Then I dropped several color drops of acrylic paint around the earring and on top of glue mixture. I got a toothpick and very slightly moved the toothpick thru the paint and glue mixture, making designs, then let it dry overnight. The next day, in very small places the mixture drew up in very small places, making designs, exposing very small areas of the wood. But gos, it looked cool. This wasn't a typical paint pour but looked great on my wood earrings.

Utterly fascinating! The Cells on the "Elmer's School glue", totally surprising! You are right with the look of it though, really offputting. :-( Over here in the UK, we tend to use "No Nonsense" Blue Label contractor PVA from B&Q/Screwfix as a baseline pouring glue - "Elmer's Glue All" is here, 8oz bottles and rather expensive really. There is also a Craft PVA from a School's supply site called Specialty Crafts that many of us UK pourers use as well. (They also have some Own Brand Acrylic paints that are on par with Amsterdam (X4 - Medium body) and Pebeo (X6 - Heavier body) for about a 1/3 of the cost of the named brand!) I'm inspired to do a head to head of both of those glues, and also some clears that we have here as well! I want to get some Book Binders PVA to try as well at some point... Can you test Mod Podge Gloss please? It is a US PVA product, and we do get 4oz and 8oz pots of it - it's one of the suggested PMs to try for Sheelee Art over here.

Gilly Kube in Australia uses the clear glue. I see how you tested them in pours, let them sit around for abmonth or two and see how they lasted. Did they yellow in the sun. Then maybe do a seal test for the.. one half resin the other varnish in a couple weeks. Then after it sits for a month or two show us how they lasted. Thanks the final test, not just the pour. Tha KS so much for this, I always wondered about school glue.

I did a test with glue that sat in my windowsill for a year. No yellowing or anything and that was without any varnish also. I do play on doing some testing like you say but it will be a while before we get the results. 8)

Thank you for the experiment. I prefer the one done with the Craftsmart white glue. I have watched some pourers use bookbinding glue with success in pours and blooms. Have you ever tried bookbinding glue?

I haven't because of the cost and because it is more difficult to find. It is a better medium for painting longevity.

Silicone is way overused by most people. I recommend no more than 1 drop per 2 ounces or 60g of mixed paint. Otherwise your cells just run in to each other and become a big mess.

Book binding glue is archival and all of the elmers glue types are not. That is my problem with Elmers. Also I don’t care for the mix of it when comparing it to a medium. I like Michael’s gloss medium. It’s smooth creamy and it has a sheen to it even once the canvas or whatever substrate used is dry. That’s a big ol plus to me! I’ve also used Blicks Gloss gel Medium and goldens heavy gloss gel. Both are quite nice. But Heavy means Heavy it’s quite viscous so altering your mix is required, the ratio of floetrol or water used once your paint is added will be more than one is used to using. I find I prefer using the gels as an emulsifier or binder (as they are 99%) when using deco art or craft paints (thin paints). Thanks for all your tests and trials. I like your scientific approach to it all!❤️

Thanks Lisa. I'll keep that in mind. I do always recommend a very good finish/varnish if you use glue and not to expect the painting to last for more than a few decades unless it is really babied.

Ready to pour paints you don't need any additional medium (like glue). They already have medium in them.
