Beacon Zip Dry 2 oz

I bought this paper glue to use in my bullet journal. The bullet journal paper pages aren't really thick or heavy so I had some concerns at the time I ordered this glue. But I decided to try it out. I've used it on thin paper, like for attaching a sheet of regular lined notebook paper to a journal page and it performed perfectly. I wasn't sure if it would work so well on the thinner paper, but it came out totally free of any warping, wrinkles or bubbles. And the glue dries very quickly. I put on a thin layer of this glue and spread it evenly over the surface area I wanted attached. I also used this glue to attach some business cards to 2 journal pages that I want to keep where I can easily refer to them when I want to contact that merchant for new orders and not lose them. For cards that have order/merchant info on the back side as well as on the front, I glued the cards to another strip of paper and then glued that to the journal pages so I can flip them up to see it. So this glue works on all weights of paper and card stock really well. This is the only paper glue I will use from now on. It is versatile and a really good product.

This glue is excellent, dries fast and clear, no wrinkles.

For years I've had no choice but to use photo corners to adhere photos to my books and greeting cards. But when I wanted to make a board book for my 2 year old granddaughter, I had to find an adhesive that would adhere tightly (so she couldn't peel up the photos) and that would not wrinkle or warp the chipboard pages. The answer was Beacon Zip dry glue. It does not wrinkle paper, photos or card stock. It dries clear and any glue that seeps out from the edges of the photos is easy to wipe off and it does not mess up the face of the photo. Here are some hints for adhering photos: It only takes a thin line of glue around the edges of the back of the photo, but it must be continuous. If your line of glue has gaps, the photo may not adhere completely. After flipping the photo over into place, I gently press along the glue lines with a paper napkin. If you press too hard, the photo might shift out of place. DO NOT lay something heavy over your glued items like you might do with other glues. You will end up with stains. Always replace the white cap shortly after using to keep the entire bottle of glue from drying out. If you find the bottle difficult to squeeze on subsequent uses, it is because a very thin layer of glue has dried inside the applicator. I gently poke a toothpick into the applicator from the outside. If you do this carefully you can reach inside the applicator and pull out the dried glue. It will come out in a little sheet. Use a toothpick or your fingers to peel out any remaining glue. From now on this will be my go-to glue for photos and text for my projects that need to look their best.

Very good paper glue

I use this in my stationary business to adhere the layers of wedding invitations together. It has a little bit of a smell, but not much worse than a sharpie marker. It is so easy to work with and dries perfectly flat and any excess that may squeeze out can truly be rubbed off. It dries a little bit like the goop they use to hold new credit cards to the paper when they come in the mail, but if you glue paper to paper it holds VERY well once dry. One bottle for me will glue about 300-400 5x7 invites together, so it is well worth the price, especially compared to the roller adhesive options. Some Advice: I have tried putting the red cap on over the pointy tip for storage, but this will only work for a few days before the glue in the bottle dries out, it's much better to put the white cap back on for storage. you can peel any remaining glue from the pointy tip in one piece after it dries. The only time I had less than perfect results with this glue is when i glued two pieces of paper together and then put a book on top to weight it down. I got a slightly wet looking spot on the front of my paper since the glue did not have enough space to dry properly. (so don't weigh down your projects, just sick it and let it be).

stick just about everything. I had had problems finding an adhesive that would work on ribbon in particular. This fit the bill. It also works beautifully with acrylic. The only downside is the clogging issue with the tip. I store the glue as directed on the label, with the pointed tip off and the enclosed flat cap on the bottle, which is a major pain to change lids and especially to clean out the pointed lid....but I suppose if one has to do that to keep it useable, then so be it.

Not sure how I ever survived without this glue. I used it to seal shut wedding invitation envelopes, which were very thick. This glue worked fantastic! Dried clear. I will never buy any other glue for sealing envelopes.

Bottle arrived empty with safety seal still intact. Not eligible for return. Waste of time and money. Took long to ship. 0/10
