Aleene's 24964 Fast Grab Tacky Glue 8oz, 8-Ounce, 8 Ounce

Had to buy glue that held and dried like super glue for doing my miniatures. This is great for both of these things. Will buy again when I need it. Very durable and adhesive

I bought this product quite a while ago, but didn't use it much until lately. I used it on some paper and cardstock, and also some felt. It seemed to work pretty well. Also, on the types of paper that I used, it didn't wrinkle much (it depends on what type and thickness of paper, I think). Seems to hold okay; not as fast as hot glue, but faster than regular tacky glue. Anyway, hot glue doesn't work well for everything, like paper and felt.

As an artist and general craft maker, I've tried my share of glues. This is the only one that grabs onto whatever I wish to adhere and it stays. I had to go back to regular store glues when I couldn't find this one and realized the quality difference immediately. Leave it to Amazon to have what I need.Update: Still my all-time favorite glue. Unfortunately the tackiness causes it to quickly become lodged in the lid, making it almost impossible to use as a squeeze out bottle after the first use. Was excited when they came out with the upside down, ready to use option. Unfortunately that didn't work as intended either, and the glue still refuses to come out. Regardless, it's amazing for what it does. I unscrew the cap and use q-tips to get the product out. It always grabs on to any item I wish to glue down, I just wish it was easier to apply.

I didn't know Aleene made a glue that could grab and hold almost as well as hot glue.! I have craft projects Id like to do with my young grandsons when they visit, but I don't want them getting burned fingers with hot glue. And using regular craft glue takes a good while to get it to hold. You have to clamp the 2 parts together and wait a good while for it to hold. Then go onto the next section and do it again.. Which isn't great when the kids will only be visiting for the day, or over night. If I do all the gluing then its not like they made it themselves, or had much participation in the project. When it arrived I tested it with some pieces of thin card board that I glued together making a little square box .Because we plan to make little carboard mini houses to decorate and light up with a tea light. I was surprised how fast the pieces stuck together so they could stand up. Really just have to hold it less then a minute after gluing. Not as fast as hot glue, but pretty close. And no glue strings or burned fingers. I've never been the greatest fan of hot glue as it can get dried out as time goes by and just let go. However I still have projects that require hot glue.. like making fake icicles hanging from the eaves of a mini house. Aleen's fast grab glue doesn't dry in a minute, but it will hold the item so it can stand up , so you can continue working.. It IS kind of hard to squeeze out of the bottle. It's thick .If you're going to be doing a lot of gluing you might want to squirt some into a little container with a lid and scoop some out with a paint brush. bamboo skewer, tooth pick etc, so your hands and wrists don't get tired, All in all, I'm pretty happy with it and ordered another bottle since the local craft store was out of it and I don't want to run out this winter.

I bought this glue to use for crafts with my 3 year old. I wanted something that would hold bulky items like pom poms, cotton balls, popsicle sticks, etc in place quickly enough that a 3 year old can't destroy it before it sets. On that front, this product does a great job.I am posting a few projects we did with this glue to demonstrate how well it works on curved and/or bulky items. These crafts were completed with a 3 year old constantly handling the items, both during and immediately after gluing. We were able to glue paper, pom poms, foam, and googly eyes to toilet paper rolls, and glue popsicle sticks to pom poms without any trouble. This glue sets almost immediately and holds strong.My only complaint is that the glue is very thick and can be difficult to squeeze out of the bottle. After a few uses, I usually run the cap under hot water for awhile to de-gunk it, and that helps a little. But you can give yourself a good workout getting the glue out -- luckily, a little goes a long way!Overall, I am very happy with this glue; would definitely recommend it when you need the extra sticking power.

This was my first time using this glue. I just today used it to glue wooden beads to a wood frame and then a bit of lace and pearls embellishments. It has a great grab and does dry fast. Excellent glue for us crafters!

Very quick to grab. A must have in my lamp shade making craft

You can not go wrong with Aleenes glues. This one might just be my favorite.This glue is easy to use, grabs quick, but not so fast that you can't maneuver the pieces together the way you want. This glue is awesome.I used this glue to attach paper notebooks to faux leather and was very pleased with the results.
