Maybe try this.... there is a product called powertex... (Kismet once mentioned it) you can find it here. http://powertexusa.crafterscafe.com/ I really like it. Don't know if you can put it into a spray bottle or not, do know you can brush it on. It does reach its full hardness in two weeks however a piece is ready to go in like 24 hours... Use it for a lot of things...but also use mod podge and sculpt and coat for a lot of things too. Each has its place.... If it was my problem would probably try the powertex stuff first.
