IT REALLY WORKS GREAT.
THIS GEL GLUE WORKS WELL. I DO ALOT OF CRAFTS WITH GRANDDAUGHTERS, SO I HAVE USED IT ON MANY DIFFERENT PROJECTS. THE GLUE WORKS WELL AND HOLDS GREAT. IT IS EASY TO USE. THE SIZE OF THE BOTTLE IS A GOOD SIZE, ALSO FOR SMALL LITTLE HANDS.

Affordable and very useful.
Doing an art work project, I ordered decorative self-adhesive stickers but i received good looking transparent decals with no adhesive on their back. Found this glue on an Amazon search. Received it the next day, and very inexpensive. It seems to work perfectly. Just a small amount spreads well under the decals and glues them firmly on cardboard surfaces. I believe it would work just as well on smoother surfaces, without smearing them. In addition, it does not show in any way through transparent materials. It is easy to use, fast to apply, and does what it promises. In essence, a very satisfactory solution to my problem and a great addition to the tools I will meed for future works.

A great crafting glue.
Been using this craft glue for years. High quality and holds strong. It's not thin but thicker in consistency so it takes a little finesse at first to get use to.

Very useful!
As a crafter, Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue is one of those staples I always have on hand. It's a solid choice for a lot of projects, especially when you need a clear, strong bond that isn't going to yellow over time. One of the biggest advantages is that it goes on clear and dries clear, which is a lifesaver for things like attaching embellishments, sequins, glitter, or anything where you don't want a milky white residue. I've used it on everything from paper crafts and card making to fabric projects (non-washable ones, of course) and even some light repairs on ceramics or wood. It's really versatile. The "tacky" aspect means it grabs pretty quickly, so you're not sitting there holding pieces together forever while it sets. That said, it's not an instant-dry super glue, so for heavier items or things that need a really strong, immediate hold, you'll still need to give it some time to cure fully. Often, letting it dry overnight is the best bet for maximum strength. The squeeze bottle is pretty user-friendly, making it easy to control the flow, though for really tiny, intricate details, a toothpick or a fine-tip applicator might be helpful. It's also low-odor and non-toxic, which is a huge plus, especially if you're crafting with kids or in a less-ventilated area. My main caution would be that while it's strong for most crafting needs, it's not meant for heavy-duty structural applications or things that will experience a lot of stress. Also, if you apply it too thickly, it will naturally take longer to dry. Overall, if you're a crafter, Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue is a reliable, go-to adhesive for clear, permanent bonds on a wide range of materials. It's definitely earned its spot in my craft supply stash!

This stuff is great
I am pretty cautious about handing out 5s, but when something works perfectly for what it does I will not be shy - this stuff is great. I have an outside door that is mostly singly pane glass that allows cold through, or heat out, in the winter time. This winter I decided to do something about it, so I bought some insulating plastic Reflectix bubble wrap stuff and was wondering how to stick it to the door temporarily without damaging the door. This tacky glue did the trick perfectly. It reminded me of rubber cement it sticks but does not permanently glue the parts together and it worked out ideally. It sets fast. There is no smell whatsoever. And it can be removed with no trace that it has ever been there. For these kinds of tempory glue or tacking problems this is perfect. 5/5

Used it to adhese some poly fiber craft material to cardboard to make this cloud led an it's been a week and it's still holding up as good as ever. It's as simple as cutting the tip to the preferred size depending on the project, then just pouring and going. It wasn't super sticky which I appreciate because some did get on my hands but it was easy to clean off with some soap and water. Accuracy of the nozzle was pretty impressive, I was able to zip through this project with ease. Size of the bottle was plenty for this lil project and I would more than likely use for other craft projects !

Holds Well
I use these on book nook kits, so lot's of tiny things to glue. Not too wet and there's a period of adjustment so you can reposition things. I've tried Elmers, Gorilla Glue, Super Glue, various wood glues, and this out-performs them on book nooks. Usually dries enough in 5 min. Warning: dries clear and shiny, so if using on miniatures or models, wipe off excess as you go. The thickness can be frustrating as it can create very fine glue threads, but you can work around this. The bottle gets hard to squeeze since this glue is THICK, so when gluing a project I keep it upside down in a mug to save my aching fingers.

Okay for light crafts, but not a strong hold
This glue dries mostly clear but with a slight yellow tint. I used it to try to reattach the design layer of a foam playmat, applying a thin layer and pressing it with weight for 48 hours — it was fully dry, but unfortunately, it lifted off instantly once I removed the weight. So I wouldn’t recommend it for anything that needs a strong or flexible bond. That said, the glue dries hard, so it’s probably better suited for small, lightweight craft projects — like gluing rhinestones to ornaments or paper decorations. It’s very affordable, so I’ll keep it in my craft box for simple DIYs where flexibility and strength aren’t as important.

Not much else to say, this glue is just really good for crafts projects and it's affordable.

This glue is very watery so you need to be careful. I do a lot of gluing with printed card stock - the glue was so watery it seeped through to the surface making my inks bleed. I wouldn't recommend nor would I buy this again. I however really like Aileenes white tacky glue. It dries quicker and thick enough not to seep through my card stocks.

This is the best glue ever. I make a lot of cards and this glue is perfect. I refill smaller containers for a more precise application but absolutely love this glue.

I have not had a problem with this glue. It dries clear and if the top is replaced correctly it does not dry out. I highly recommend it.
