This starch paste is a must have for all paper projects.
From bookbinding to scrap booking, from archival to collage, it dries slowly for intricate readjustments and it is safe to use even with the most delicate papers. Adheres to paper, glass, metal, plastic, wood and fabric. Works wonderfully for Bunka embroidery.
Dries clear and incredibly strong yet it is entirely reversible in water. Will not wrinkle or soak through paper or fabric. Non-toxic, acid free and washes off hands and out of clothing easily. Nori Paste can also be mixed with PVA glue.
FAQs
How do I use Nori Paste? Nori Paste can be used full strength from the jar using a stiff brush, fingers, glue spreader, or palette knife. Nori Paste is a natural, slow drying starch paste, and is invisible when dry. Nori Paste is water-soluble, even after drying. It is ideal for bonding rice papers, tissues, fine fibrous papers, chine collé techniques, and other projects requiring a low tack, slow-drying adhesive.
How do I store Nori Paste? When opening the jar for the first time, remove the protective film, and discard it. Keep lid tightly closed when not in use. Refrigeration after opening is not required.
What are the main ingredients in your Nori Paste? The main components are water and cornstarch.
Is Nori Paste gluten-free? Yes! Nori Paste is gluten-free.
Can Nori Paste be used to finish origami models in the way to fix the shape, as for example methyl cellulose is used? Nori Paste alone will not strengthen the models like methylcellulose, as it dries more flexibly. We suggest mixing Nori Paste with PVA glue or matte gel medium to strengthen the paper.
