FAQs
What are the dimensions of each glitter glue tube?
Each tube contains 10ml of glitter glue.
How do I achieve fine lines with this glitter glue?
The glitter glue features a built-in precision drawing tip designed for creating fine lines and detailed designs. Apply gentle, consistent pressure.
Can this glitter glue be used on fabric?
This glitter glue is best suited for paper and cardstock. It is not specifically designed for fabric and may not adhere or wash well.
How long does the glitter glue take to dry?
Drying time can vary based on application thickness and environmental conditions, but typically it dries within an hour to a few hours for a full cure.
Are these colours washable?
The glitter glue is designed for craft projects and is not intended to be washable. Once dry, it is permanent on most paper surfaces.
Can children use this glitter glue safely?
Yes, the glitter glue is easy to use and safe for children under adult supervision, due to its non-toxic formula and precision tip for controlled application.
What is the shelf life of the glitter glue?
When stored correctly in a cool, dry place with the cap sealed tightly, the glitter glue can last for 1-2 years.
Troubleshooting
Glitter glue will not flow
Ensure the cap has been removed and the tip is clear. If clogged, carefully use a fine needle to remove any dried glue. Shake the tube gently before use.
Uneven glitter application
Apply gentle, consistent pressure to the tube. Ensure the surface you are applying to is flat and dry. Shake the tube to redistribute glitter.
Glue is drying too quickly
Ensure the cap is not left off the tube for extended periods. Work in smaller sections if necessary.
Glitter shedding after drying
Allow adequate drying time. Avoid touching the glittered area excessively once dry. For more permanent finishes on high-contact items, consider a sealant (test compatibility first).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The glitter glue is ready to use directly from the tube. Ensure the tip is clear before first use; if a small amount of dried glue is present, gently clear it with a fine needle. Replace the cap securely after each use to maintain the product's quality.
Compatibility: This glitter glue is compatible with most paper crafts, including cardstock, construction paper, card making, scrapbooking, and general artwork. It adheres well to paper, card, and other porous craft surfaces. It is not recommended for use on fabric or non-porous materials.
Care: Store the glitter glue tubes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent the glue from drying out and the tip from becoming clogged. If the tip does become blocked, carefully use a pin or needle to clear it.
