Glue Runner For Scrapbooking Supplies, case pack, Clear 4 Count (Pack of 12) cartridges,05603-CASE

These are great. I have used a few types of these glue runner products, including some of the big name brands. Most of those are simply ok. They usually don’t have as good adhesion as I would like, which is why I’ve used different brands. It takes a lot of the glue product to be just adequate. I have found my new favorite/go to brand. These don’t require a ton of glue. The glue is very good and applies slightly more than other brands because it is a wider applicator. It applies easily and you get a lot for your money.My one con is that when you stop gluing it can bunch up or clump. I was gluing stuff that would have looked bad with the glue clumping/bunching (I’m picky about that kind of stuff) and since I had not had this problem with other types of runners I was disappointed. With practice you can minimize this, but it still did it a little it seemed, even with a great stop.Then I figured out a way to make that no longer a problem. If you put a piece a scratch paper under whatever you are working on, just continue your run past the edge slightly (like I used to do in kindergarten with glue sticks lol). It will bunch up on the scrap paper and not your project, and will be even the whole run. Perfect gluing.I was going to rate these a 4 until I figured out that gluing trick. These are great overall and a super value compared to others. They have greater adhesion and are the best I have used to date. The cases seem slightly less sturdy than some brands because they unclip a little sometimes on me while using, but that doesn’t really bother me much, and they have never come completely open or anything. I am so glad I found these and will use them a lot in the future for various projects.

I use this crafting tape instead of sticky glue. Whether it's scrapbooking, taping photos, taping paper, it's perfect. It is easy to use, highly adhesive, easy to tape corners without a mess, and it quicker and cleaner than most other tapes or glues. You also cannot see the remnants of the tape under the taped product. For example, if you were to glue down a piece of paper onto another piece of paper, with liquid Elmer's glue you would see where you put the glue but with this crafters tape, you do not see a thing.IMPORTANT:If you are using for scrapbooking photos, be aware that once you adhere the photo to a piece of paper for example, and then later decide to take the photo off, it will most likely tear the paper (which is fine if you plan to cover it with another photo) and warp the photo BUT if you are gluing the photo back down, you will be fine. There will also be glue remnants on the back of the photo once you remove it so keep that in mind.

This stuff is great! I'm not a "crafter," per se, but I did want to adhere engagement photos, cards, and RSVPs into a scrapbook for us. This stuff worked great. It does clump up a tiny bit, but nothing too terribly bad. If you put the tape on something and drop that something in the wrong place, beware! This stuff is sticky and isn't very forgiving when it comes to needing to move something around. I was taping RSVP cards and drop one with the tape on the back of it. In removing it, it peeled up the scrapbook parchment. They're not kidding around when they say "permanent."There is one important thing to note for us "non crafters." I could not tell when the canister was empty. All of a sudden there wasn't any tape coming out; it was just slick. I had not paid attention to which side the tape had been initially. I am posting a photo of what the canisters look like full versus empty. Look at the larger wheel to know when you're out of tape. Hopefully this will help others. Great product! I just ordered two ore boxes of 4, as I have a lot of taping up to do! :-)

I thought I had gotten a faulty product. This was unfortunate since I had purchased two packs of 4. I tried to use them time and time again and would get half a sheet of glue, or the glue would stick up the end of the runner and then gunk up the tape. It was a mess! It's all about the technique with how you hold and use the glue tape dispenser!You must hold the tape dispenser straight on the paper. With even pressure and a bit of a heavy hand, pull straight towards yourself in an even motion and you will lay down a straight even line of adhesive. I don't know why I had such a learning curve with this or why I seemed to find this difficult. I've been using these tape runners for years. This particular brand had just slightly a difference to the feel for it in my hand which made me have to reteach myself how to properly hold and use it.After some practice, I got it down and it works perfectly. They feel a little bit cheaply made like I'm going to break it if I apply some pressure in my grip while holding it, but it lays down some quality, permanent adhesive. When I say permanent, you better hope to not move what you're taping down.These are acid-free and great for scrapbook and all paper crafting. I especially love using my for my planner and attaching pages together that I may have goofed up or for frankenplanning. These are also great when you want to attach something little and being that it's permanent you can attach almost anything to everything paper related.Overall, I think this a great product and a good bang for your buck. Over 26ft of tape x 4 tape runners in one box is a phenomenal investment in all your crafting needs.

I always buy tombow but have to admit this adhesive is much stronger than it. Really like this adhesive and will continue to buy this brand.

These are great, inexpensive, easy to use and adhesion is strong IF USED IN A SPECIFIC MANNER. If you try to add this to the back of paper on the top of a desk, wooden table or glass mat, they work horribly. You need some ‘squishy’ give between your project and the hard table top in order for these to apply evenly and easily. If you have the Tim Holtz media mat, try applying the tape to your paper with your paper on the white removable soft mat, not straight on the glass. A few sheets of scrap paper, a mouse pad, etc seems to do the trick. Hope that is helpful.

I used this to attach photos while making art cards. I also make stamped cards and use it for that as well.This does not warp paper like stick glue can. It is super sticky, so you have to hover your photo (or whatever) exactly over where you want it to go. You can not peal it off and re-stick it. I just press and pull and the tape comes off of the spool onto the paper. It is super easy and does not dent the photo or paper you apply it to.An added bonus, you can buy replacement spools! So keep the outer cover and get 8 replacement spools of tape for almost the same price as these 4 units.

Excellent product - super tacky and easy to use. Very reasonably priced!!

So easy to use

Love these, they are so easy to use and would buy again

Works well
