20 Best Glue For Clay Pottery (2023 Updated)

Upon seeing the retail packaging I was amazed at how big it was and excited to see the volume of glue. Unfortunately, after opening the package and looking at the design, I realized that the plastic bottle-looking frame was just a “frame”.

Seems there is a smaller tube inside the plastic frame which was a bit of a disappointment however was very pleased at the design that the frame was actually a squeezing mechanism for releasing the glue.

Installing the applicator tip was super easy and turned onto the tube easily. The first squeeze took more pressure than expected to get the glue out, and subsequent uses thereafter also required the same or even a bit more pressure to get more glue out.

I double-checked that the applicator tip was turned all the way down to the tube and all was well yet it remained needing higher pressure squeezes to get glue to come out. The tip of the applicator was great for hard to reach and smaller applications so that was huge bonus however it may be a set back for bigger applications since you would need to squeeze a lot to get a lot of glue out.

After each use, I cleaned the tip and put the cap on tightly and neatly. Thus far I have used the glue a total of 9 times and each time, the glue came out without any issue except the fact that it required a hard squeeze each time to get glue to come out.

Overall, it’s a great product and if the squeezing mechanism worked easier, this would be a sure buy for me depending on the retail pricing.

I had 3 things that I needed to fix that have been sitting around my house forever, but since I never remembered to buy super glue, there they sat until I received Scotch No Run Gel Super Glue for free to test.

Frst on the list was my favorite pair of New Balance sneakers. I’ve had these for years and put a lot of miles on them until the tread started to separate at the back. Cleaned the surfaces, ran a thin bead around the perimeter (easy to get into the tight spaces with that applicator!) and a few drops in the center, then held it tight until it set.

Back in business! Second item was my ceramic light-up Christmas tree with a broken star. Applied the super glue, positioned the piece and then held it in place with some paper tape (like the kind you use to affix bandages) and left for a few minutes and it’s good as new! Last item was a wood 3 drawer cabinet that lost a corner on one of the drawers.

Luckily it broke off clean and again ran a bead down the middle and stuck it into place. This time I was a little too squirt-y and some squeezed out when pressed into place, so I just wiped it away easily with a paper towel.

Voila, drawer is whole again. Overall, very easy to use, and I like that the gel stays where you put it and doesn’t run off. The applicator doesn’t drip and there was virtually no mess (except when I got squirty) and doesn’t clog.

A great product for a variety of fixes!.

There are both things I liked and things I did not like. First off, puncturing the top was a lot harder than it should have been, It took me 3 tries to get it open. Second, the middle where you squeeze is different and when full works great, but when it gets down to the bottom, I about broke my fingers trying to get the last of it out, I used this on a project of flowers I made for one of my Christmas trees.

They I needed to glue the foam petals down because they were the base. The glue was great because it was a gel consistency and I could manage where I wanted it. But as it ran low, I think the “gel” consistency worked against me in trying to get the last of it out.

Which brings me to when you finish the bottle there is no way to tell except for the aching fingers of trying to squeeze the bottle. Needless to say, I only got 2 flowers done with this bottle and finished the other 5 flowers with a good old glue stick, Which ended up working better anyway.

So it was good while it lasted, but didn’t last very long. If I had a specific project that I needed to control the glue distribution, I would use this product,.

I used this Weldwood Multi-Purpose Floor adhesive to apply some new laminate flooring to my kitchen area. I did purchase self-adhere tiles, but wanted to ensure they would stay in place well and for a longer period of time than they otherwise would with the peel-back tape adhesive.

This container comes with full instructions on the back, along with some information regarding the types of materials that it best suits and a small graph regarding coverage dimensions. Note: before you begin, be sure you have something on-hand to either protect or quick-wash your hands.

This is a very strong and sticky adhesive that is very uncomfortable on the skin. It is similar to wood glue in texture; thick and pasty and a sort of off-white/cream color with a slightly yellowish hue.

The instructions note to spread the glue and wait a minute or so until “legs” can form when pressure is applied and released from the surface of the application. These “legs” resemble reverse icicles (apply pressure with the finger and lift; some of the glue begins to lift with the finger until the finger releases-at which time the glue sort of “stands,” or has “legs”).

It is at this point it is ready for your material of choice to be applied and to have the best grip possible. I have included some photos to show the texture: one showing a spread application over a foam plate, another demonstrating the “legs” as noted above, and one reflecting exposed glue that has adhered to the lid rim after use (it becomes rubbery); as well as some general shots of the adhesive itself, and the finished tile after application.

Overall, this is a great product at a very reasonable rate, that stretches well over a decent area. I would buy again.

This was my first time installing a linoleum floor and I must say. it was super easy for this lady. I used painting paper to created a template, then traced it onto the linoleum piece. Used a sharp box knife and cut the piece before laying it in the bathroom.

Then using a notch trowel I applied this multi-purpose floor adhesive to half the floor and laid the linoleum down. I then used my marble rolling pin (yes the baking type) to press out any bubbles. I then pull the other side up, applied the adhesive and followed the same steps.

Boom! That easy!! Now I will tell you that I had this adhesive everywhere but thanks to a little “Goo be Gone” everything cleaned up beautifully. This adhesive worked great and this floor is going nowhere.

I have used this for ceramic crafting and also to adhere gems/beads/shells when making bird and fairy houses. If you let dry inside, they hold up nicely outside as well. I also used to repair a few of my own ceramic items that had chips.

It is a soft marshmellow fluff consistency so you need to get used to how much to use. More is less so that when you press the item onto what you need it stuck to, there is not an extra large blob. I controlled it better with a finger tip for smaller spaces.

You can wipe away excess to make it neat before it dries (nice – can re-shape or re-position if needed).

Very effective and gluing different things. It’s a staple in our home. The price is very reasonable for a 2-pack. The only con is that after opening, it does seem to dry out quickly we only get a couple of uses out of tube at most since we don’t need it that often.

I have been a picture framer, carpenter and DIY maniac for 30 years. This glue blows my mind. I’ve used it for fixing lino, small tile repairs, light wood joints and many other repairs. But it was when I sat on my glasses that I realised how good it is.

The rubbery plastic of my glasses broke at the hinges both sides. I figured I’d bin them, but thought I’d try the RapidFuse to connect the arms back against the hinges, expecting no luck. After holding the joints tightly for 30 seconds, I was amazed I could put the glasses back on.

Three months later, they are still well intact. I can’t close the arms on the hinges obviously but I can slightly bend them against the frames and the arms still flex but not break! Incredible. I can’t recommend RapidFuse highly enough.

No contact with company, no BOT, just a real consumer who has never had a better glue. Thanks DAP!.

I absolutely LOVE this product!! It is by far one of the best out there on the market today. and I have used it to literally glue almost anything back together or to anything else. I can not think of one instance where this glue did not work.

I highly recommend it!! It doesn’t dry 100% clear, but mostly so. Doesn’t take much!! As long as you keep it pretty thin, it stays clear.

Have never found a glue as good as this. I used it to glue the rubber on bottom of my cowboy boots, it was separating from boots on both feet between toe & heel. It’s been a month now & still holding strong! Even walking through cow doo everyday & even wet rainy conditions! Absolutely will be buying more & recommend to everyone I know!.

Are used this product on my bath tub. At 1st it was just clear looking stuff coming out of the tube and I thought I would have to throw it a way. After I squeezed O of the clear stuff out is when the thick white enamel stuff started coming out of the tube.

After I put it on the chipped spot on my tub. I went to Walmart and bought a 400/600 wet grid sponge from the auto mechanic section. I put the White porcelain repair kit on my tub and the next day I wet sanded it with the 400/600 wet grid sponge and it came out perfect.

The sanding sponge is the key.

works great repairing some chips in my bath tub, does take a couple coats, as it is rather thin. This is repair chip paint, NOT GLUE. You use this just for chip filler repair not to glue items together.

It is pure white so it works seamless in color with my porcelain tube.

We had two sinks with hairline (and a couple chips) cracks. One leaked and the other did not. Applied the product to the leaking sink as directed. Leaked stopped! Works as described. Easy, breezy. A $7 solution that saved a couple thousand $ (sink removal and replacement).

Longevity of the seal is unknown. A high probability that a reapplication would work, too.

This product is consistently durable and strong. We use it to create sample boards for architectural products. Bonds all materials listed on packaging and more! I always feel confident that the bond will last long.

Would recommend.

It is essentially super glue that is white. It does kind of bond the surface like super glue. rubbery but it won’t hold up under any real world applications. Tried it twice and it looks ok. until the lions head falls off.

sloppy,hard to work with and it says set in 10 mins. but may need up to a day. If this glue even holds (Il find out in a day). I will still have to scrub off the mess which will in turn pop off the head.

Too much is still not enough. messey.

Very good quality, perfect for small chips but my crack was really nasty and sealed well, hope it will stay on for a long time. you can do multiple layers as needed with drying in-between, dried in 10 minutes on surfaces and with layers you can do overnight for a better sealing.

I bought it, but ended up using another similar product that I already had. I guess it would have worked, just liked the consistency of the other one better

I bought this for a few different applications and I am really happy with the results on all of them! We had to fix our hot tub and tear out some of the spray foam insulation – since this is moisture resistant and works outdoors, I used it to adhere the large sections of insulation back to the tub and plumbing.

I also tested it out on one of my craft projects adhering fabric to a wooden frame. The spray makes for a great finished product – you couldn’t see it through the fabric as you might with other products.

I can see myself using this for a lot of things! When it was delivered to me, it had started to freeze – so pay attention to the storage directions.

As a single working Mama, I am fully responsible for all household repairs for my home and I love working on simple, decorative, and functional DIY projects. So, I was extremely thrilled when I learned I was going to be getting a free can of Gorilla Spray Adhesive to sample and review.

When it arrived, I was happy to see the large 14oz full sized aerosol can and began to use it immediately. It worked really well with adhering and mounting light materials like fabric, canvas, paper, photos, and cardboard but it did not work as well with heavier materials like glass and metal.

I had some swelling and warping and when I worked in my journal I had some bleed-through.

I use this gorilla spray glue for my intricate diecuts. I can’t really get a small enough glue pan to cover all of the area before it dries. This great glue works perfectly!

I purchased this product to fix two Beautiful Angel statues. One had a broken arm and the other a broken head. I used Monkey Glue on the one with a broken arm, and it did NOT work. With that glue you have to put something on it to keep it in place for several hours.

Imagine standing holding this broken arm for a long time. I saw this Glue, read the instructions and decided to purchase it based on the time. This Glue did not disappoint. The glue set the arm just as the instructions said.

It was completely dry in less than 2 minutes. The other Angel with the broken head, dried and set sooner due to the angle of the item. It was more flat and even where as the arm was angled and an undulating surface.

Very pleased with this item.

I love the way it bonds so many different materials so well. Some reviewers complain about the cure time but it’s acceptable, comparable to other adhesives, and definitely WORTH THE WAIT! I have had issues with epoxy being brittle, Dap RapidFuse does’t have that problem.

So called Super glues won’t bond many materials but so far Dap RapidFuse has bonded everything I have tried it on. Wood to metal, metal to plastic, polycarbonate to wood and/or metal, the possibilities are endless.

I find it really works well to glue neodymium magnets for workshop projects. They have a very smooth surface but this glue does not care, it just sticks and bonds!! Buy a bottle!! You won’t regret it!!.

Super Glue makes great products and this porcelain repair is no exception. Easy to use and not messy at all. So happy to find this product at Office Depot.

Michael’s is a great store to shop. I seen the Krazy glue and I was surprised to see it. I bought it immediately. So Michael’s will keep your family “glued together” as they have everything!

My go to for superglue. The added brush makes applying to objects super easy. It’s perfect to use on outdoor garden ordainments, which the local squirrels love to knock over.
