FAQs

Can this glue be used on metal?

While the glue is versatile, testing is recommended for metal surfaces, as adhesion may vary. Always test a small area first.

How long does it take for the glue to dry?

Drying time can vary depending on the materials and environmental conditions, but it typically takes several hours. Allow ample time for it to fully cure.

Is the glue waterproof?

The glue is washable but it's not fully waterproof. It's suitable for items that may encounter occasional moisture, but not for complete submersion.

How should I store the glue?

Store the glue in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and make sure the cap is tightly closed to prevent drying.

Can I use this glue on paper?

Yes, you can use this glue on paper; however, be mindful of the amount applied to prevent the paper from warping.

What if I get glue on my skin?

Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a physician.

What is the shelf life of the glue?

The shelf life is typically two years if stored properly. Always check the product for an expiration date.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No special setup is required. The glue is ready to use directly from the bottle. Ensure the surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free from any oils or residue. Apply a small amount of glue to the surface and press the embellishment firmly in place. Allow the glue to dry completely before handling the item.

Compatibility: This glue is compatible with plastic and glass beads, rhinestones, pearls, mirrors, and fabrics. However, compatibility with all fabrics is not guaranteed. Test on a small, inconspicuous area before applying to the main project.

Care: Store the glue in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Close the cap tightly after each use to prevent drying. Clean up any excess glue immediately with water while it is still wet.
