Product Information
Full details
This Ranger Stickles Glitter Glue in Frosted Lace is designed for crafters and artists looking to add dimension and sparkle to their projects. Its key benefit is the easy-to-use fine-point applicator tip that allows for precise writing, dotting, dashing, and embellishing. A potential caveat is that while it's water wash-off when wet, dried glitter can be more permanent and may require careful handling.

FAQs
What surfaces can I use Stickles Glitter Glue on?
Stickles Glitter Glue can be used on a wide variety of surfaces including paper, cardstock, rubber stamps, wood, candles, and memory album covers.
Is the glitter permanent once dry?
Once dry, the glitter glue adheres to the surface. While it is water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof. It is designed to be a permanent embellishment for crafts.
How do I clean up wet glitter glue?
Wet glitter glue can be washed off with a damp cloth. For dried glue, gentle scraping might be necessary.
How long does the glitter glue take to dry?
Drying time can vary depending on the thickness of application and environmental humidity, but typically it takes 15-30 minutes to be dry to the touch, and longer to fully cure.
Can I use this for lettering?
Yes, the fine-point applicator tip is excellent for writing small lettering, outlines, and adding detailed embellishments.
Is this product suitable for children's crafts?
Yes, the formula is non-toxic, making it safe for use in supervised children's crafting activities.
Does the glitter settle over time?
No, the glitter is formulated to be non-settling, meaning the glitter particles remain suspended in the glue for consistent application.
Troubleshooting
Glitter glue will not flow
Ensure the tip is not clogged. Gently squeeze the bottle. If clogged, carefully clear the tip with a pin or fine needle.
Uneven or clumpy application
Apply with gentle, consistent pressure. Avoid shaking the bottle vigorously just before use, as this can disturb the glitter suspension. Ensure the tip is clean.
Glue is drying too quickly on the tip
Wipe the tip with a damp cloth after use. Ensure the cap is securely fastened when not in use.
Smudged design
Allow the glitter glue to dry completely before handling the project. If wet, use a damp cloth for gentle cleanup.
