For the Art Glitter Glue...to attach the fine tip, all you do is put the fine tip on top of the normal black tip and screw down. It will make grooves on the black tip and hold on to it. You don't have to remove that tip even if you get a new bottle. Just take the entire section (black tip and fine tip) off the old one and put it on the new glue bottle. Also, make sure you use the pin that comes with it or a pin that is stainless steel. If not, it will get rusty inside the glue. You really don't want that. Hope that helps.

I really enjoyed this video. So very helpful for crafters. Several issues I find with glue that you could test for are 1. If it warps the cardstock. 2. If it warps thiner pretty papers 3. If it warps the vellum. 4. The easiest way to figure cost is to take the price ÷ the number of ounces. Then you can use per 1 oz price on your list. 5. The glue that dried clear with white spots wasn't completely dry yet.

I think I noticed that MayMay keeps some kind of glue stored upside down in a container. Makes sense, as that way the glue is ready to come out when needed and also has less chance to suck air up into the bottle, possibly drying out the contents. Guess it would have to be at least somewhat viscous, though, so it didn't ooze out immediately upon opening and baptize your project before you were ready to apply it. @@marypolancodesigns

I have found that Art Glitter Glue works well and lasts a LONG time. In the fall, i bought a small bottle with the precision tip to try. I made at least 75 multi-layer holiday and new year's cards with it and have used maybe an eighth of a 2 ounce bottle. Even though it's not cheap, it's less expensive than dry/snail adhesive. I also like the Multi Medium Matte, but it's hard to get precision with the tip on the small bottle and the (purchased) precision tip makes the bottle too hard to squeeze. I end up using it out of the jar with a toothpick.

I use Art Glitter Glue and Nuvo for all my liquid glue needs, with one caveat: I use MMM for any heavy metal embellishments. A lot of people use Glossy Accents for those, but I like Ranger’s adhesive because it has a teeny bit of flexibility (if you’ve ever done book binding, you know how important a strong yet flexible glue is), and also because MMM contracts as it dries, meaning that it’s not going to be as obvious if a little oozes out. I’ve been curious about Aileen’s, as I like their fabric glue for tacking prior to sewing. It’s super flexible and holds well.

Fantastic review Mary! Like u mention there are a couple of flies that may suite our needs. I am a stroke survivor so I have hand issues having said that one may assume the small bottles are easier for persons like myself. It is normally quit the opposite. In our stroke therapy group we too have tried several adhesive products that work for us. Mainly the bigger bottles that are soft To squeeze win out and despite the price Aleena’s has always been a solid go to brand! I have personally tried others and I still like Alene’s and a couple other go to’ for different reasons. Thank u Mary!!

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I had to send back the Lawn Fawn bottles because 2 out of 3 of them were bad and didn't dispense glue. Amazon refunded me and Lawn Fawn was willing to send me more although I declined. The ease of squeeze SHOULD be an important attribute; who wants to fight with their glue bottle!

this is a phenominally helpful video, thanks for putting so much time and effort into it. not to mess up your effort but there is one more glue you may want to try, it's called yes glue, it's very thick it comes in a tub and you apply it with a tool, a brush, or stylus for example. it's clear, holds very well, dries fast, and best of all it will not wrinkle your paper, I used to be into dollhouse/miniatures before card making, and it's perfect for putting wallpaper in your dollhouse, it is a little expensive compared to what you've used, a 16 oz tub is $15.00 but a tub will last a lifetime, as somehow it never dries out in the tub, I've had one for about ten years that's good as new itis tacky, so it's great for foiling

For people who don't know Ranger's Multi Medium is an acrylic medium also sold by Luitex among others for less. 12/15/21 -- 1/2oz for $5.50 vs 4oz for $6.92. Ranger over-prices some things. Also, I prefer acrylic medium extra heavy get by Golden, which is more expensive but I like the smooth paste quality because it doesn't run and bleeds less. Also, always keep your glue nozzle and inside the cap clean so it will make a better seal and slow drying out.

Thank you for your time putting this out there. I would love to see a comparison between the top ones as to how they work gluing paper to paper. Does the paper warp? How strong is the bond? How much time before you can’t adjust without ripping? The tacky glue surprised me, but I am not sure how it would perform paper to paper. It’s why I like my Art Glitter Glue- it bonds quickly with a tiny amount of glue. The extra fine tip prevents waste. Thanks again!

My two go-to's are Art Glitter Glue and Tombo Mono Multi. I picked up the Nuvo glue but haven't tried it yet. If I had to choose one favourite, it is the Art Glitter Glue - it has never failed me and it even works when adhering something to glitter paper. I'm really enjoying your channel!

I,too, loved the video. Here's another bit of info about the Tombow glues. I love the green bottle. I was in the craft store and didn't see it so I bought the blue "aqua" one. I used the blue Tombow last night and found that it made my paper warp! I didn't use too much either. It happened on a second card too. Someone pointed out to me that the "aqua" dries clear and hard while the green dries white with a little flex and tack. I will use the "aqua" for sequins, buttons and other embellishments and the green for everything else,especially if I need a fine tip.

The glues I use are: 1. Aleenes for the thickness and the hold for sequins, buttons, wood veneer and ribbons. 2. Towbow Mono Aqua for paper and embellishments above. Jessica from Im a Cool Mom uses it for everything and she makes junk journals. 3. Glossy accents which I use to add dimension and glossiness to make paper buttons. 4. Dollar Tree glue for paper. The only issue i have with this one is you have to shake it to make sure it doesn't come out liquidy and sometimes it has little clumps in it. I want to try the Art Glitter Glue. Maymay from Maymay made it and Tracey from Gift Basket Appeal both swear by this glue for paper, buttons etc.

Elmer's Glue All and Aleene's Tacky Glue are my two faves. I make cardboard structures and use diluted PVA glues in large quantities as paper mache/decoupage medium, so these are the best to buy in bulk and that work best on kraft paper. Wood glue also works very well on paper, but is not cost effective.

Great review! I started using Tombow mono glue when I first started paper crafting. Then I tried Art glitter glue. I absolutely love it. The lid on my cookie jar broke and I used art glitter glue and that lid lasted for over 1 1/2 years before it broke again. And it was used every day. No I did not have cookies inside. 😜 I also purchased thick chipboard organizers and I put them together with art glitter glue. They are still holding over 1 year and no signs of coming apart. It is a bit on the pricy side but you do get a lot for you money. The precision tip that you can buy separately can clog if you do not put the pin in after you have used it. But this is just this girls opinion. However with that said. After your review. I will purchase the Alleens glue for mats and layers and use my art glitter glue for my 3D paper projects and travel journals cause I know it is really strong. Thank you for sharing!

Hi Mary, thx for a very thorough review of glues. I mostly use snail for adhering, as I've not had good results with liquid glue in the past, i.e. was too generous and got ripples, etc. I guess somewhere between that and sparingly is the key. May give Aleene's a try, as it looks like Glitter Glue is the Rolls Royce of glues $$$. Have a great week🌼

Hi Jean! Thank you so much for your comment! I use snail a lot too but I do love the wiggle room with the liquid.
