FAQs
Is the glitter glue washable?
The glue itself is designed for craft applications and is not explicitly labeled as washable. Minor dried residue can usually be removed with a damp cloth.
How long does the glue take to dry?
Drying time can vary depending on the thickness of application and environmental humidity, but it typically dries within a few minutes for a thin layer.
Can this glue be used on fabric?
This glitter glue is primarily designed for paper and cardstock. It is not recommended for fabric applications as it may not provide a durable or suitable bond.
Does the unicorn design come off?
The unicorn design is part of the product's aesthetic and should not come off during normal use. The cap is designed to be decorative and functional.
What are the dimensions of the glue stick?
The product dimensions are approximately H:9 x W:9 x D:9 cm. The weight is 9.0 kg, though this seems to be an error in the provided data and likely refers to the packaging size or a typo, as a glue stick would weigh significantly less.
Is this glue suitable for children?
Yes, it is designed for creative projects and is generally suitable for children, but adult supervision is recommended, especially for younger users, to ensure proper application and handling.
Will the glitter shed excessively?
The glitter is infused within the glue formula. While some minimal shedding might occur immediately after application before drying, it is designed to stay adhered once dry.
Troubleshooting
Glue stick won't twist up.
Ensure you are twisting the base of the unicorn cap in the correct direction. If it feels stuck, try gently wiggling it while twisting.
Glue is not dispensing smoothly.
Check if the glue stick tip is dry or clogged. If so, gently moisten the very tip with a slightly damp cloth and try again. Ensure the cap was on properly during storage.
Glitter transfer after application.
Allow the glue to dry completely before handling the project extensively. Applying a thin, even layer can also help minimize transfer.
Glue is not sticking effectively.
Ensure the surfaces to be adhered are clean and dry. Apply a sufficient, even layer of glue to one surface and press firmly.
