Araldite Fast-setting Epoxy Adhesive
Opaque 2-part glue made of epoxy resin and a polymerizing (hardening) agent. The glue is waterproof and ideal to quickly glue on materials such as plastic, wood stones, ceramic, leather and metal. Mix equal parts of both tubes and apply on both of the surfaces. Maintain both surfaces pressed against one another for about 10 to 15 minutes. Wait 3 to 8 hours for the glue to fully dry before manipulating.
Beacon 527 Glue Multi-Use
Strong thick transparent waterproof glue. It is recommended to use it in a well-ventilated room because the vapors can be harmful. It is also recommended to protect the surface or area on which you’ll be working as this glue can damage dyed, varnished or painted surfaces. This glue can be used with glass, cork, ceramic, leather, wood, paper and metal. It has a built-in sharp tip that enables precise application. Any excess must be cleaned with acetone before the glue has had time to dry, because bubbles are formed during the drying time which makes it more visible. Drying time is about 2 hours, however, it is most effective after 24 hours.
Beadfix Gel Adhesive
Transparent quick grip glue that is choc, water, heat and cold resistant. Ideal to use with glass, stones, metal, plastic and all non-porous materials. This glue takes about 24 hours to fully dry. However, it has a quick bonding power. Its elasticity and its thick consistency make it ideal to use when gluing feathers in a connector or to glue a round surface on a flat one.
BeadFix Glue
Transparent glue extremely liquid and very effective. This glue uses capillary action, which means that it has the ability to easily flow between elements. It’s categorized as a quick grip glue. Although it takes about 24 hours for this glue to fully dry, it has a quick bonding power. This glue is choc, water, heat and cold resistant. Use it on surfaces such as glass, stone, metal, plastic and any non-porous material. Often used to glue bows, flat surfaces or to harden the end of a string (wax cotton) making it easier to thread beads through.
Be careful and apply this glue in small amounts. It’s recommended to avoid pouring the glue directly on the surface to avoid accidents. Instead, put one or two drops on a cardboard and use a needle or a tip to apply it. Watch out for your fingers because this glue bonds very quickly. It can un-polish surfaces of materials such as dyed seashells and harden soft material such as feathers and textiles.
Contact glue Good-Colle
Yellow semi-liquid contact glue. Idea for rubber, leather and metals, this glue must be applied on both surfaces that are being glued. Let each surface dry partially before joining them. Once joined, the surfaces can’t be separated. Because of it’s yellowish color it is recommended to use it in non-visible areas for a more professional finish. This glue takes about 20 minutes to dry.
E-6000 Glue
Very effective glue that can be used on a variety of surfaces. Indeed, it can be used on wood, metal, glass, rubber, leather, vinyl, ceramic and many plastic materials. This glue is often used in jewelry making because of its high resistance, transparent and waterproof qualities. It’s often used to glue two surfaces together or to glue tips. Flexible and rubbery once dry, it’s easy to remove any excess glue. Although it take 24 to 72 hours to fully dry, its viscosity enables objects to stay put while drying.
E6000 Plastic Tip
Plastic tips used to facilitate applying E6000 glue. These tips are long and pointy which allows a precise application of the glue on the desired surface.
G-S Hypo Glue
Strong high precision glue. A little viscous and transparent, it is mainly used for small objects. Because of its built-in precision applicator, applying it with precision is easy. This glue is ideal to glue small objects on smooth surfaces such as glass and ceramic but also on porous surfaces such as fabrics, leather and paper. Drying time is about 10 minutes.
G-S Hypo Glue for Fabric
Strong high precision glue. A little viscous and transparent, this glue works with various textiles such as leather and wool. It can also glue plastic elements on fabrics. Because of its built-in precision applicator, it’s easy to apply this glue with precision. Drying time is about 10 minutes.
