Lineco Neutral pH Acid-Free All-Purpose PVA Adhesive, Dries Clear, Flexible, 1 Quart, Ideal for Bookbinding, Book Repair, Framing, Collages, Paper Art and Crafts

Best glue I have found. Don't have to rush doing the rebind part you are working on as it need to air dry just a little to get that tackiness. Once it sets... it is set. Flexible when dried. Easy to use and work with and easy to clean off when you over apply.

This is my 3rd time buying this glue - I LOVE it for my preserved flower projects! does not discolor delicate petals and holds very well.

I tried several glues and tapes and found that for performance and price - this would be my GO TO glue! It's not as fast drying as Art Glitter Glue (no actual glitter) but, I find I like just a little extra time to 'move around' and reposition lining up whatever I'm gluing. TAPE GRABS Immediately and tears if you hesitate just a little bit too long - assuming you need to move it. As noted, some glues will adhere VERY quickly..... but this gives me just the few extra seconds I need to make certain of my alignment and yet - when it dries = IT'S STUCK!!! It's so good - that Karen Burniston uses and sells it on her website. I love her (buy LOADS of her dies), but this size is just so blasted economical that I buy it here!!!

Makes for useable repair of broken book spines and building new book covers. Dries quickly and flexible. Reinforce with book repair cloth before it dries. Cleans up easily with water.

I purchased this to replace the solidified gallon container of neutral pH adhesive that I bought a year ago and opened this up right away to verify that it was usable. It is and I was able to finish my writing journal. I love this glue for bookbinding, but make sure to open it up and verify it's usable before storing it for long periods!Bought a gallon nine months ago and didn't open it up until now. It's approximately 80% solidified and unusable.

I bought this glue a few months ago for some paper projects, but have found it incredibly useful for more than just paper. It adheres fabric, metal, rhinestones, PET stickers, cardboard and a variety of other things as well. I have even used it to create decorative boxes.

Many people answered my request for the viscosity of this glue. The answers ran from just a little thicker than elmers to as thick as tacky glue. I opted to try it. It is about half way between. It does not pour, but it is not as thick as tacky glue. It is a little thicker than I would like. But, it works well, that is what counts. thank you for all who answered my request.

I tried three glues. I started with hardware store "cement" and it was super strong even before letting it set, but it was yellow, and not for flexible surfaces. Next I tried stic flat glue. Very rubbery/gel that was difficult to spred. Fairly strong adhesion they are labeled 2 in red. This glue, the PVA was the strongest hold and poured well. I glued a 31x31 inch canvas to plywood. I started at the bottom of my canvas and board gluing 6 -12 inches at a time with glue on the board and on the canvas backing. Starting from the bottom center up and out, I squeegeed the surface with a clean towel and my hand. The glue dries semi fast and I'm in a dry climate so I moved quickly and used a decent about of glue. This was great when it came to rolling the edges over but I had to press and re press it in place. I cannot even pick a corner up after 24hours of drying. I will never do 3D canvas again while I have kids. I was able to store my project in a roll when not working on the painting. For this piece I made an alphabet for my kid, and I didn't want their explorative fingers peeling the canvas at the edges, or poking fingers through a stretched canvas on a frame. I will do this with higher quality acide free board next time for their growth chart I made as well. I think I have 2/3rds a bottle left. I read a review that said it was nothing more than Elmer's glue. Yes it is white, and a little runny, and to be far I didn't test Elmer's in this way. But after teaching art for 15 years, and working with lots of glues, I'm pretty happy with the result and would not have even bothered testing Elmer's, or tacky craft glue. If doing a lot of this kind of work a squeege would help, I have almost no ripples or bubbles but the canvas did move and stretch and I pressed multiple times as it dried to make sure it took. Also next time I would have aloud for an extra inch all around for wrapping over the back.
