FAQs

What materials can I use these glue sticks on?

These glue sticks work well on most household materials, including wood, leather, fabric, rubber, PVC, metal, tiles, and brick.

What type of glue gun do I need?

You need a cool melt glue gun that is compatible with 11mm diameter glue sticks.

How long does it take for the glue to dry?

The glue sets quickly, usually within a few seconds, but the exact time can depend on the materials and the amount of glue used.

Can I use these glue sticks for outdoor projects?

While the bond is strong, the longevity of the glue in outdoor conditions can vary. Consider the project's exposure to weather elements.

How should I store the glue sticks?

Store the glue sticks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Is the glue safe for children?

While the glue itself is non-toxic, always supervise children when using the glue gun and the glue sticks.

What temperature should the glue gun be?

The glue gun should reach a temperature between 125°C to 135°C.

Are these glue sticks reusable?

No, once the glue has been applied and set, it cannot be reused. You'll need to reapply new glue for any further bonding.

Troubleshooting

Glue is not sticking properly.

Ensure the surfaces are clean and free of dust or grease. Make sure the glue gun is at the correct temperature. Apply sufficient glue and hold the surfaces together long enough for the glue to set.

Glue gun is not dispensing glue.

Check if the glue stick is inserted correctly and not jammed. Make sure the glue gun is plugged in and turned on. If the glue stick is used up, insert a new one.

Glue is stringy or messy.

Ensure the glue gun is not overheating. Apply the glue with a steady hand and avoid over-squeezing the trigger. Wipe the nozzle clean after use.
