Adtech W229-34ZIP100 Mini Hot Glue Sticks, single pack, Clear 100 Count

In the form of a stick of rubber cement. Obviously, the ingredients used in this batch were made as inexpensively as possible. It resembles rubber cement rather than high-temperature hot glue. I've been using hot glue for 30 years and this is by far the worst I've ever encountered. In less than six weeks, I must make 1000 flowers for a wedding. I'm starting to get worried because the majority of them are now ruined. Folding the origami petals took months. I'm tired of products that aren't manufactured or sourced in the United States. What you pay for is exactly what you get. They promote the best-selling items. There is no way. I'm going to use my old glue sticks once more. There will be no more.

These aren't as described; they're too small for my glue gun, despite the fact that it says they'll fit any glue gun; they also don't work as well; they don't hold; you have to use a lot of glue; I made dream catchers, and now I have to reassemble everything; I'm not happy about that at all.

I assumed I was saving money and getting good service, but this was not the case. The adhesion is a shambles that comes off easily. Even the dollar store sells items of higher quality.

You get a lot of bang for your buck. So far, there have been no melting issues, and I've used about four of them. They are unmistakable in comparison to It's cloudy (as others I've seen), but that's not a problem for us. We make crafts with them. If we ever run out, we'll buy it again. For the price, this is a GIANT pack.

My 8. These are a big hit with my 5-year-old daughter. They worked perfectly for her crafting needs, she said, and lasted a long time. She said she'd give it 2,734 out of 10 stars if she could. She enjoys following YouTube tutorials, and this "waterfall" is one of her most recent creations. All of the glue sticks used to make the water feature. I'm about to go out and buy a few more packages of these sticks.

I bought these because I recently bought my first mini glue gun and am just getting started with crafting. I decided to purchase these because there were a large number of them available and they qualified for Prime shipping. I did read the reviews and was undecided about which color I would choose. These were crystal clear when they arrived, and they stayed that way when they dried. However, I've noticed a lot of spiderwebbing, which could be due to the fact that I'm using a low-temperature glue gun. These aren't the most durable bonds, but they'll suffice for my current projects. Like gluing popsicle sticks together, gluing a missing wing on a metal owl, gluing a wall hanger to the back of a mod podged puzzle, and so on. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase, and the quantity will last me a long time.

When I received these glue sticks, I was taken aback. It wasn't due to the fact that they were glue sticks. My high-temperature gun (a Surebonder mini) completely melted them all. They are, however, completely transparent! I'd always assumed that the glue sticks I bought from the craft store were clear. I'm not sure if it's because they're dual temp rather than high temp, but the fact that they're crystal clear made me very happy. To say I go through a lot of glue sticks would be an understatement. I'm building a small version of a two-story house, framing and all, and I go through a lot of glue sticks. The craft sticks and the birchwood plywood are very well adhered to each other with these. Even when I only use a small amount of glue, I've never had a problem with them falling or peeling off. They also have a strong bond with Lexan and wood. For my windows, I use Lexan. The cool surface just makes the glue very smooth and stiff and will not hold for an extended period of time. br>br>Perfect for crafters. Even high temperature hot glue will not bond stone, glass, or any other material that holds on to temperatures (for example, marble, which will keep warm if heated and stay cool if not). I've used it to glue wood, plastic, fabric (low temp for delicate fabrics like silks), rope, and painted surfaces together. When dry, it's very tough, and it only takes about 20 seconds to dry. However, you only have a few minutes to correct any errors. br>br>And I've discovered that rubbing your fingers together immediately after getting it on your fingers helps to roll the glue away from your fingers, preventing nasty burns. You'll get blisters if you just shake your head and say "ow. ".

For the amount, the cost is unbelievable. br>br>I got milky colored ones; when melted, they come out clear, but when the glue dries, they return to milky. When it comes to certain crafts, this can be a problem. I attempted to contact ad tech directly but received no response! br>br>In the summer, I had no problems with the glue holding projects together, but I just used it tonight and it was NOT holding anything together! I'm not sure if it's because of the colder temperatures, but the glue dried and set almost instantly after I applied it, before I could even finish my project! It's a real pain.
