Questions & Answers
A regular glue gun will suffice, but if you don't want colored glue after using the wax, you may want to invest in a separate gun.
Of course, there are 20 different color options. If you want every color in the rainbow, you'll have to buy each one separately. Please use the keyword "B00Y8EJQ5Y" in your search.
Each stick costs around $17. It also depends on the amount of wax you apply to each one. I used one and a half sticks to make 34 envelopes.
I chose a vibrant color, which worked well but did not lighten or brighten. They are wonderful to have around. I wish you the best of luck. JF.

If you use a high-temperature gun, the wax will overheat and the stamps will not be successful (learn from my mistake). You CAN do it in a high-risk situation if you're desperate. If you're using a temperature gun (as I was), simply work with it until the glue begins to bubble and smell, then turn it off, wait a few minutes, and resume using it while it cools. Prepare to use an entire stick of clear glue to clear the colored material from your gun after you've used these. A word of advice: Between uses, cool your stamp with an ice pack. The release of a cool stamp is easier. If you're having trouble, place the project on an ice pack for a few minutes before applying the wax and stamping.
I made 230 seals with 15 sticks! As a result, the average price per stick is around $15.
The material is not 100% wax, it appears to be some mix of wax and glue but I loved it because it’s easier and cleaner to work with,%.
It came out beautifully! I am very pleased with my purchase and will most likely make another one in the future. When I use a stick and see how many seals I can get out of it, I'll update my review.
These wax seals did a fantastic job. I sent out 600 wedding invitations, all of which had wax seals, so I had plenty of opportunity to put them to the test. I received approximately 20- Each stick yields 25 seals. It works great if you squeeze out the wax and then swirl it around with the glue gun tip until you get the shape of your seal. If you use too much wax, the seal will become quite large around the edges, making mailing difficult. They aren't as much fun as using real wax seals, which require you to melt the wax with a flame, but they are far more efficient.
hot glue gun with a temperature setting The wax itself is very nice; in my case, I went with purple, which turned out to be a lovely deep purple with just a hint of swirl texture, giving the envelope a very classy look. br>br>These are available in a glue-free version. gun- If you have a *low temp* glue gun (or a glue gun with a low temp setting), applying sealing wax is far and away the easiest and quickest method. One full trigger pull is exactly the right amount for a seal with most glue guns, so you simply squirt it on, press in the seal, let it cool, and you're good to go. (I just dip the seal in a cup of water to cool it down between applications. ) )br>br>Even better, the price is reasonable! With just this one pack, you can seal dozens of envelopes.
These appear to be more like glue sticks in consistency, similar to how the description says "can use special gun to melt. " It's not actually wax. However, I believe that this is now a common occurrence. They still work, but they're not the same as the sealing wax you're used to. I wouldn't recommend melting the stick over an open flame; instead, use something like a spoon or one of the special melting bowls. br>On the plus side, once they've set up, they're a little more durable and flexible than regular sealing wax. On the downside, you don't have as much "open time" to work with it, but if you think of it as melted glue, the working time is similar. Allow the seal to sit on it firmly until it begins to cool, rather than simply stamping it. then peel away from the outer edge with care. If you have a complex seal, it will try to cling to the nooks and crannies, but it will eventually give up.
Despite the negative feedback, I decided to give it a shot. This is the first time I've ever used glue gun sealing wax. It's very simple. As seen on Amazon, the color was a bright red. I bought a dual temp glue because the seller recommended "low heat" setting for this wax. On a low setting, it takes about 5 minutes to get ready to use. It makes a good impression, dries quickly, sticks well, and is very simple to use.
The color was absolutely stunning. I believe I read somewhere in the comments that it took all ten sticks to do 100 stamps, but that was not the case for me. I stamped over 100 times with four sticks. However, some of them started out with a little less wax than others. Since these were going through the mail, I didn't want a large glob. Also, I believe I read somewhere on here that putting the stamps on an ice pack in between stamps worked wonders, and it did. If your ice pack sweats like mine did, make sure to wipe off the stamp. In general, everything went smoothly.
