Product Information

Full details

Elmer's Metallic Glue in blue is a versatile, shimmering adhesive designed for crafters, students, and hobbyists looking to add a bold aesthetic to their projects or slime creations. It serves as an excellent, washable PVA-based tool for DIY art, though users should note that the metallic finish is most vibrant on lighter surfaces and is primarily intended for decorative rather than structural heavy-duty bonding.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this glue washable?

Yes, this is a washable PVA glue that cleans up easily with soap and water.

Does it come with an activator for slime?

No, you must use Elmer's Magical Liquid or another compatible activator separately.

Is this glue safe for children?

Yes, the product is non-toxic and designed to be safe for school projects and children's crafts.

Can I use this for wood projects?

While it can bond light materials, it is primarily designed for arts and crafts; it is not a heavy-duty wood adhesive.

How long does it take to dry?

Drying time depends on the amount used and ambient humidity, but generally takes a few hours for a full cure.

Troubleshooting

Glue is clogging the nozzle

Use a warm, damp cloth to wipe the tip of the nozzle and clear any dried adhesive.

Slime is too sticky

Add a small amount of Elmer's Magical Liquid activator gradually and continue kneading until the desired consistency is reached.

Metallic finish looks uneven

Apply a secondary thin layer once the first application has fully dried to achieve a more opaque, metallic look.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Vibrant, shimmering metallic blue finish
  • Easy to clean up due to the washable formula
  • Specifically formulated for slime making
  • Convenient 147 ml size for various craft projects

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty structural repairs
  • Requires a separate activator for slime
  • Metallic finish may require multiple coats for opaque coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using the glue, remove the cap and peel away the safety seal if present. Keep the nozzle free of dried glue by wiping it with a damp cloth after each use to prevent clogging. The glue is compatible with most paper, fabric, and craft materials. When crafting with children, ensure they are supervised to avoid accidental spills on porous surfaces that might stain before drying. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry area at room temperature to maintain the consistency of the liquid and prevent premature separation of the metallic pigments.
