Original Tacky Glue, All Purpose Adhesive, Perfect for Crafts and DIY Projects, Dries Fast and Clear, 8 fl oz 3-Pack

This glue is the best I've found for putting together a dollhouse kit, as well as gluing on all the trim. Not only does it dry much like cement, it is tacky enough to hold whatever your gluing into the place you put it without sliding or moving until set. It can get a little messy, but mild soap and water cleans it up. And while it is fast drying, it's not so fast that if you glue something and realize it's crooked immediately, you do have time to readjust. I also found that paint adheres to it easily once it's dry. The ONLY issue I had is by the time I got down to 1/3 left of the bottle, the glue was thick and not as easy to work with. This makes me think that maybe I should have shaken the bottle better before opening at the very start. My husband also uses it for other woodworking projects and to date, it's holding it perfectly.

This -seems- to be nothing more than a very thick white glue product, but appearances can be deceiving. On its first use, I actually found it performed better than ordinary white glue (such as "Elmers"). It is thicker (hence the 'Tacky' in the name), and letting it set up for a few seconds after application increases the tack (and holding power) even more. As a test, I used my new Aileene's Original Tacky Glue to stick a 1/2 inch thick, rectangular piece (approximately 1 1/2 - 2 inches wide) of packing styrofoam onto a 3mm thick × 30mm circular wooden base for wargaming miniatures. I applied a bit of Aileene's directly to the base using the tip (which the user cuts to size, leaving a small, medium or large opening for fairly precise, more generous, or really generous application of adhesive), and spread it around the whole surface, squeezing out a bit more when necessary (I cut mine to the smallest, precise applicator size) to achieve a thin coverage overall. I applied a bit to the styrofoam at the same time, and let the glue set up on both for around 30 seconds. I then stuck them together, made sure of the positioning of the styrofoam (which still could be moved around easily), set the entire assembly down, put a small bottle of paint on top of the styrofoam to wiegh it down, and left everything alone for a minute or so. When I picked it up again, it was pretty secure: I didn't try to reposition either piece, but I was able to handle the assembly cautiously without anything sliding around. I then turned it upside down, and using the circular base as a guide, carved the styrofoam (now on the bottom) into the same shape with my X-acto and a fresh blade. Having done exactly this particular join -many- times in the past, I was surprised to be able to do this so quickly -- attempting to carve that small chunk of styro into shape so soon after gluing with regular white glue wouldn't have been possible. In fact, not only did I carve around the piece to match the edges of the base -- afterwards I even was able to carve up the top into sloping sides and tiny hills. This was excellent performance that just wouldn't have been possible with regular white glue, or even super glue -- the white would have required many hours of curing time, and a cyanoacrylate product would've dissolved the styrofoam entirely. I then applied another layer of glue to the entire surface, stuck a few tiny pieces of slate, representing stones, into the wet glue here and there, and covered everything else with a 'turf' product (from Bachmann) to represent soil. Now, finally I can set everything aside to dry completely before painting or attempting anything more. Great! Normally, after gluing something (styrofoam, cork, or another product) to the top of the base (or bases, more often) with Elmer's or some other carpenters or white glue, I would set it (or them) aside until much later, or even better, the next day, before attempting any carving, or working with extra products to add shape, texture, foliage and more to the base, before finally attaching a completed mini. What a wonderful time saver, and a splendid introduction to a product I'll be using regularly from now on. Aileene's Original Tacky Glue. Great product. Update: I used a small funnel to transfer glue from the original 8oz container to a smaller container (around 1oz), easier to move around and use in precise, close-up work. When cleaning up afterward, I discovered just how powerful an adhesive Aileene's really is. It took at least 2 or 3 minutes for all the glue in the funnel to drain, which initially I chalked up only to the increased tack of the product. While rinsing the stainless steel funnel however, the glue didn't simply rinse away, as PVA (white glue) would have. Under running water, I scrubbed at the residue judiciously with my fingers, yet the final, thinnest residue already was pretty firmly adhered to the stainless steel. Strong glue! I added a little soap into the process, but still couldn't immediately get it off with my fingers alone. I added more soap to the funnel, a bit to a cup of water, plopped the funnel into that and agitated it a bit, and decided to just let it soak for awhile. I came back to it after about 15 minutes or so, and now was able to clean up the last visible residue by scrubbing, now with my fingers alone, under a strong rinse. I also (the next day) know now that not only is this stuff as strong as an ox (compared to PVA, although there really IS no comparing it to a normal PVA in this regard), it also dries much the same as a 'normal' white glue, clear and without damaging (no crazing particularly) the things around it. I haven't tried it specifically, but I believe this glue would be just about the perfect adhesive for attaching clear plastic canopies (or windshields) to already painted model aircraft (or automobiles). Ultimately, the conclusion still is the same, only magnified considerably: Aileene's Original Tacky Glue. GREAT product.

Glue is very subjective - you know like most important issues in life. Glue is important when you enjoy paper. This stuff works, more than in a pinch - you can use it for so many different things. Buying three at a time saves you a couple bucks too - I always cut the hole at the tip too big. My greatest failing. But its oddly reassuring to see three bottles on your shelf you know what I mean? Having a well-stocked cupboard is healthy.

Aleene's Original Tacky Glue has become an indispensable tool in my crafting arsenal. Its thick, tacky formula grabs items on contact, making it incredibly easy to work with. Whether I'm working on paper, wood, metal, ceramics, or non-washable fabrics, this glue provides a strong, reliable bond every time. One of the standout features is its versatility. I've used it for various projects, from scrapbooking to DIY home repairs, and it never disappoints. The glue dries clear and flexible, ensuring that my projects have a clean, professional finish. Plus, it's non-toxic and cleans up easily with soap and water before drying, which is a huge bonus. I also appreciate that it doesn't yellow over time, keeping my crafts looking fresh and vibrant. The 8-ounce bottle lasts a long time, offering great value for the price. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just starting out, Aleene's Original Tacky Glue is a must-have. Highly recommended!

Very good glue because it doesn't run ut of joints like others white glues and sets up quickly. It dries clear and the glued parts are held fast.

This is the glue my Art professor recommended I use for glueing broken ceramics back together. I use it as an all-purpose glue，but within reason. I don’t think I can use broken ceramics glued back together again as dinnerware. But it can be used to mend decorative ceramics. It‘s not intended to fix broken metal jewelry，for example. But for crafts and projects it’s recommended for，it‘s great！It won’t surprise you by expanding，as Gorilla glue will. It can be hard to find，inexplicably. I‘m glad I can find it on Amazon. I glued back together a ceramic figure which exploded in the kiln with Tacky Glue years ago—and it is still intact！So it can last indefinitely when used appropriately. It’s easy to use and easy to clean up—and water-based/reasonably priced！ It’s also safe，with no problem odors. It is white coming from the bottle，but dries clear. It is not fast acting—I have glued wood frames together with it—leaving them overnight，to dry thoroughly. It is glue—don’t expect it to be as strong as metal tacks or nails. I glue wood pieces together with Tacky Glue when the wood won‘t be subjected to future significant stress. It would work well for woodcarving projects，such as carving a decorative wood decoy，when it‘s more practical to glue on the head，rather than carving the whole piece out of the same block. Or when repairing a wooden toy—or a wood table which has a broken or damaged edge.

Perfecto para manualidades. El envase es grande, por lo que la cola durara mucho tiempo. Seca rápido y no deja huella. Va perfecta para tela, fieltro y madera. Producto recomendable.

I was skeptical, but I saw people using this glue to repair speakers on youtube. I had a speaker from a guitar amp that had a ripped cone. It was old and brittle and weak. I tried this on the cone to repair the rips and strengthen it up. I was more skeptical when I went to bed after the first application that it was even going to work. Woke up this morning and was pleasantly surprised. Not only did it stay nice and flexible and strengthen the whole cone (I applied it to the whole thing), but it held the rips together nicely. Being overly cautious, I added a second coat (diluted again, of course) to the cone to make sure it wouldnt tear and give it more strength and as soon as its dry I'm going to plug it back in and try. This saved me over $200!!

La tacky glue é una garanzia attacca molto bene ed é ottima per i lavoretti con carte Kraft

Este pegamento me gusta mucho porque no mancha las tarjetas sí se te pasa un poco y pega muy bien.

اشتريته خاص لتغرية اشياء نادرة عندي، عجبني سعره وجودته
