Hi BW.
I second the BP End Sealer.
Whichever one you get the water based one not the oil based

The BP end sealer works well but I have also had success with a few coats of acrylic paint.

Bloodwood,
The BP End Sealer does work well, but I've had trouble getting it in quantities less than 20 litre drums. If you only want a smallish amount, Carbatec sells it packaged in 2 Lt tins.

I picked up 4.5L of Titebond glue for less than $20 and I mix it with water about 30% water and it works just fine. But I guess any PVA type glue will do it

I do the same as hughie and use PVA thinned with water. I don't do huge amounts but I'll add 250ml of water to 1 litre of PVA (or a ratio close to that anyway)

Styro disolved in waste thinner works reasonable well ..... particulary when you have a supply of both.
When I was doing a lot of audio contracting I had a clip lock lid 20 litre drum that had my waste thinner ..... nay styrofoam packaging got disolved in that .... when it got too gluggy I added more thinner.
pretty much any wax works, adding some oil can make it a bit more tacky & plastic.
waste paint ...... well if its going to land fill anyway .... it works
Same for pretty much any glue that is past its useby date.
