Glue Tips

Which Glue is Best?

• Super glues (cyanoacrylate glues) are best for surfaces that fit exactly together (no gaps), or where you need just a small dab for extra security.
• Two-part epoxies require mixing, but have excellent long-term durability (even for foil-back crystals). Great for production craftspeople!
• Specialty & craft glues are each designed for specific applications. Some are flexible, and many will bond plastics, foil-back crystal, porous materials (wood, fabric, etc.), or metal-to-metal bonds.
• Resins and sealants can sometimes also be used as adhesives.

Gluing Hints & Tips

• Follow the manufacturer's directions.
• Test a small sample and allow it to cure thoroughly before proceeding.
• When possible, use a file to roughen smooth surfaces. This allows for a stronger grip.
• Clean both surfaces before applying adhesive (we recommend isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab).
• Work in a well-ventilated, dry, and dust-free environment.
• Extreme temperatures might affect drying time.
• Store all adhesives in a cool place.
• MSDS (Material Safety and Data Sheets) are available upon request.

Glues & Cold Temperatures

• Avoid shipping glues via Ground during winter months, since many will lose effectiveness once frozen. This is especially true of super glues.
• Store finished creations in a location that maintains temperatures above freezing.
• To intentionally weaken a super glue bond, place glued object in a household freezer for several hours. (Epoxy glues also become brittle in low temperatures, but most will not snap apart as super glues do).
