Modge podge is a white glue-consistency liquid (I've often wondered if it really **is** white glue) that is brushed over something to be coated, paper especially, and the coats can be built up successively to give something like a decoupage effect. It gives some protection to the article in question. I've used it on items for Godly Play, where I was laminating paper to wood, with good effect. In my opinion it doesn't offer the protection of something like several coats of polyurethane. I haven't had any problems with pieces cracking off, with either substance.
