Art Institute Glitter Dries Clear Glue Kit, 8oz & 2oz with Metal Tip & Pin

Move over Elmer's, this glue is insanely wonderful! I work a lot with paper of all thicknesses and this is an instant and durable bond. The small applicator makes it so easy to apply, so you get a smooth small bead, or a thin line of glue. It is easy to squeeze the bottle and control the glue. It dries smooth and clear, making any project look its best. The refill bottle is great, and the smaller bottle is easy to refill. This glue goes down and stays down smooth, with no bubbles. I keep a straight pen in the small metal applicator tip to keep the nozzle dry and unclogged, and this also keeps the glue from drying out in the bottle. It can sit up for weeks or months and it still works perfectly. GREAT GLUE. What else can I say?

I absolutely love the Art Institute Designer Dries Clear Glue Kit! It’s perfect for making cards and scrapbooking; my projects come out looking clean, polished, and professional every time. The fine tip makes it easy to apply just the right amount of glue for detailed designs without any mess. What really stands out is how it dries completely clear, giving a smooth finish without any residue. It doesn’t warp my paper, and everything stays securely in place, which is so important for delicate layouts and layered designs. I’ve used it on multiple scrapbook pages and handmade cards, and it works beautifully every time. If you enjoy crafting, especially card making or scrapbooking, this glue is definitely a must-have!

This glue is AMAZING especially if you are making crafts using “foil” papers or “coated” card stock papers. I was not able to get my regular bonding glue to hold ephemeral on foiled papers, so a friend recommended this type of glue and it works!! It also comes with a super small stainless steel head to dispense the glue which works for very thinly cut pieces. It also helps preserve this glue as a very little bit is super strong!!! Though this product is very expensive as far as glues go for paper crafting, it has been the only glue (besides using my hot glue gun which is just a messy process) that works on every type of foil cardstock I use. If you wipe excess quickly, it won’t leave a colored spot and overall the appearance dries clear. In the photo, I used a whole bunch of different paper types - glitter, shimmer, foiled, regular cardstock, and the glue holds all the layers together perfectly! Dries very fast, but sometimes I had to rub my hand over the piece for a few seconds to get it to dry in place.

Dries clear but glossy. Does not cause wrinkles. Excellent adhesion. Works well on most surfaces . Best to transfer small amounts to separate glue bottle with a tight seal. For repeated use a small dispenser bottle with a pin closure will be a good idea and save glue.

Love this glue. I’ve had glue before with a fine tip for dispensing glue but I’ve always had trouble with them. I decided to try this because of the positive reviews and I’m SO glad I did. The fine tip on this works very well. It dispenses the glue really well. It comes out easily but not too fast. I can put a fine line of glue down very easily. I’ve used this a couple of times now. I wanted to wait to review it after I had used it and put it up. When I came back to use it again I was able to easily remove the pin from the tip and dispense the glue. There was just a little build up that was easy to remove. I also like the drying time of this glue. It seems to hit that sweet spot where you have time to position your paper and move it around a little and where it adheres so that you don’t have to hold the pieces together to get it to stay stuck. I did not order this when the weather was really cold so I didn’t have any issues like others have reported. You get a large amount of glue. The price is a little higher than others but for the amount of product I think this is a very good deal. I will definitely order more when this finally runs out but I don’t see that happening for awhile.

Excellent for paper crafting! A little goes a long way and it dries quickly and clear. Use too much and your paper and it'll show but not nearly as bad as other glues I've tried. That is why you need the fine tip!

GREAT glue. Easy to use and dries clear. Strong bond.

This glue is superb! Love the metal tip. It doesn't warp paper. I will purchase again.

No deja residuos, se seca super rápido y es transparente. La puntilla de precisión es excelente para trabajos detallados

口細なので細かい所の接着にとても便利です。ノリが広がりずらいですし大概の物は綺麗に付きます。乾けば透明になり作品に響きにくい良い商品です。

This glue is a little expensive (especially as I make approx 200 cards/3 months for seniors in Australia, but is so worth the money as this purchase is a great bundle for the price. The glue is good and the metal tip is a really good idea.

Love it!

I have been using this product for more than 10 years. Yes I have tried others that are not so expensive, but the results are not the same. When used sparingly, the product adheres well to all cardstock and papers, as well as light fabric and felt. It dries clear which is an advantage as well. One thing to be meticulous about is to clean the lid the spout and the metal tip thoroughly after each use with tepid water. Do not put the metal tip back on, just the plastic tip. Keep metal tip and pin in a container for later use. Do not cut the plastic tip or the metal tip will not fit.
