Quite true. Only the initial bit was really messy; I got some fine
powder flaking off
from handling it while I was applying the gel medium, but not much at
all.
And once the medium dried, it sealed it perfectly. No problems at all.
I love the gel medium; it's so easy to work with. I use it for all of
my bases now, too.
