Methyl cellulose is a plant-based adhesive derived from cellulose. It's dissolved in water to create a non-toxic, vermin-proof adhesive that dries clear. Uses include bookbinding, sizing papers and fabrics, as a paint binder, thickening baths for marbling paper, paste papers, and general craft bonding.
Dissolve the dry powder in water following the instructions included. The resulting gel-like adhesive can be brushed or applied directly. It dries clear and will not decompose once dry.
Methyl cellulose is the active ingredient in many wallpaper pastes, so yes, it works on a similar principle — but this is the pure, non-toxic version free from synthetic additives.
It comes packaged in biodegradable bioplastic bags, consistent with Natural Earth Paint's commitment to eco-friendly packaging.
Yes, methyl cellulose is a core fine art supplies product in the Natural Earth Paint range, used as a paint binder (particularly for watercolour recipes) and craft adhesive.
