Key Features

This nontoxic, all-purpose adhesive has been trusted with craft, hobby and household projects for 50 years. The gold bottle of Original Tacky Glue reflects the gold standard of excellence you can expect in every drop.

The incredibly versatile all-purpose formula holds items on contact and permanently adheres a variety of surfaces, including felt, foam, wood, metal, paper products, nonwashable fabrics and ceramics.

Quick Tips for Using Aleene’s Glue Tips

Did you know you can customize the size of the opening of your Original Tacky Glue tip? All you need is a pair of scissors! Cut the tip at the first ridge towards the top to create a small opening for thin lines of glue. For larger projects that require more glue, you can cut the tip closer to the base to create wider openings.

    Item as described
    This is the only glue that I use for the projects I make which are 3d papercrafts, using almost entirely just different weights of cardstock. Dries quickly but not instantly so there is time to adjust before it's stuck for good. Easy to clean up, doesn't irritate skin, etc. Good price for the amount you get. I added the picture for size reference. Shipping was exactly as predicted with no issues or delays. I would purchase again.
