20 Best Glue For Glass Crafts (2023 Updated)

Not good if you’re an amateur. (I am). difficult to use, gummy and gooey, tricky to close (the bottle kind of twists when you close it, especially if you’ve made a mess of the opening and your hands are covered in glue).

It didn’t work great with what I was trying to do – it peeled off of the metal I was using pretty easily. So – if you’re a newbie, try to find something with a built-in brush. Gorilla has something like that I tried and it worked a little better for me.

Great adhesive. Permanent hold!!! Dries clear. Very strong fumes.

The glue works well on glass and plastic. One-time application works; no sliding objects. It sticks to my fingers and takes a whole day to wear off. I tried wearing light plastic gloves, but the glue sticks to the gloves.

I absolutely love Ranger Stickles Glitter Glue! Diamond is my favorite although the Stickles comes in lots of colors. The DIamond puts a glitter on flowers, borders, whatever you want to stand out on a card (or on a scrapbook page).

I have arthritis in my hands quite badly, so I use both hands to squirt a pile of the glue on some scrap paper then use a smallish paintbrush to paint the glitter on. Works great & the brush cleans with water.

I love Blitsy! Great variety of products, good prices, weekly sales. I’m a fan!.

Two failures at first. First effort glued well, but the dishwasher (too soon?) ruined my effort. Second effort failed because I didn’t clean the surface from left over glue from failed first attempt.

Third time worked well. I probably won’t chance dishwasher. Too much effort! It is evidently a sensitive substance. In all three attempts I used the substance generously, ignoring the suggested amount per square inch.

I think this rule of thumb is not helpful. My surface, a broken glass foot was very narrow and not long. But I decided to at least touch the entire surface with the glue.

Loctite has always been my go to for adhesives. so when I had to glue a glass post to brass, I knew it was not going to be easy to find anything that would work. WRONG! After cleaning both pieces (brass with sandpaper, and glass with alcohol) I put one drop of Loctite Glass Glue on the brass, and pressed the glass on it for 60 seconds.

Then I let it cure for 24 hours. Perfect repair, solid as a rock!.

I’ve had mixed results with Loctite products in the past. It seems as though they require an exacting procedure and a certain type of break in order to work correctly. This “glass-repair” variation, though, worked quite well to repair a difficult break — a delicate extrusion on a glass sculpture.

After a week — and another blow to the repaired area that I feared might have caused the repair to fail — it’s held up pretty well. So I was pretty happy with the results.

Very strong glue. I use it for paper crafting and card making. I like buying it in the larger bottle and refilling a smaller handy size bottle. I also like being able to use coupons for discount when buying.

This is my all-time favorite wet adhesive glue to use in paper crafting. It works just as good as Fabri-tac (sp?)but it’s a lot cheaper. It doesn’t wrinkle your card stock and it adheres pretty much everything to paper including small metal objects.

The product itself is great! I use it for multiple steps in my small business. Sometimes the packaging is a little funky, but it is a really good glue. Dries very fast and is very sticky.

I love Beacon 3 in 1 glue. I primarily use it for building my miniatures. It is tacky enough to hold a piece in place with time to reposition if necessary. It dries clear and works well on many different materials.

I would liken it to the consistency of hot glue but without the worry of getting burned. It can be a bit stringy but easily breaks with my fingers and I will have a wet wipe on hand to clean off right away.

I am so glad to have discovered this product.

This is the best craft glue I have ever had. No hype, really the best. When used between two paper sheets it spreads out thin and leaves no bumps or “ghosting”. Warning, when they say instant grab they mean it! You better make sure you have the glued item placed right the first time as there is no repositioning! The other downside is the odor.

The smell is as strong as contact cement but disappears quickly. I have used this for gluing 3D objects with perfect results. This will be my go to glue from now on!!.

This is an amazing product. I make cards all the time and have used a plethora of glues. This one outshines them all. Checks all the boxes, non stick cap, dries quick, spreads thin or thick, positioning can be done quickly after initial application and stays sealed.

Total thumbs up on this product. Give it a try. :).

I like this particular polyurethane glue better than other brands, much easier to flo where you want it to go. Good price.

Highly effective. Pay attention to usage because the glue will expand.

To foamy can be on limit appaction

A chemist who makes custom industrial glues recommended this glue as a strong, multi-purpose glue. I used it to glue a clay or concrete (not sure) birdbath bowl that cracked in half when a racoon tried to jump into it.

It held together for 6 years and with water in it. I am about to glue it again for another 6 years. Make sure the item you glue is free of oil, dirt, and other glue and you should lightly sand and clean the debris before you glue it.

Let it cure overnight.

This is an extremely versatile glue. I’ve repaired half a dozen odds and ends that have been broken for years in just a few minutes. Saved a lot of memories and a ton of money on things that no longer need to be replaced.

they’re now repaired. A little goes a long way, and a tube lasts a long time. Plus it stays nice and gooey and won’t dry out super fast like those miniscule bottles of super glue.

I’ve used this brand of glue for over 35 years. I love how good it works. I’ve had trouble finding it in the stores for awhile now. I finally found it on E bay. Very happy I found it, the other glues I had to settle for didn’t work as well as the 527.

This product was purchased to mix with equal parts water to stiffen fabric for an art project made of 3-D hearts for Valentine’s Day; it worked extremely well because it dried clear, stiffened the fabric the desired amount, and made it easy for little hands to cut!.

Gorilla Glue I used this for one of those weird projects where there there were multiple surface types and no easy answers. Sparing the details, it worked great on my carpet remnant meets concrete meets steel job and both aesthetic and holding power needs were met.

Great product for a lot of different uses!.

Very easy to use and makes less mess. It works on just about everything and keeps a very strong hold. It’s s must have if u are clumsy like me and break everything lol. My husband can’t even tell what things are broken now.

I was looking for a glue that wouldn’t warp my paper crafts and didn’t leave a dark residue like tombow. I’ve been wanting to try Art Glitter Glue or Bearly Art glue but they are hard to get shipped to you during the colder months.

This glue is amazing. Online it says to order online only but I found it in a local store. This will be my go to glue from now on. The precision tip is excellent as well. The clear applicator let’s you see when it it about to come out so there are no surprises.

This was okay. The bond is incredibly strong, basically impossible to remove once your object is bonded. However, the only downside is the drying time. It takes about 24 hours for it to fully dry, so during your craft be careful with moving anything that’s glued down.

Otherwise, it’s a great bond and is very effective.

This is fantastic Ultra Bond Glue. I glued a cardboard label to a glass jar, used this glue it stuck to the jar very quickly. I also like the clear tip, I can see the glue coming down the tip, also it has a clear snap on cap.

There are also fine tip metal screw on caps available. The price for this product is affordable. I bought the 4oz bottle. I have arthritis in my hands and this bottle is softer than other brands and easier for me to use, I don’t have to squeeze the bottle very hard at all.

I am Very Satisfied with this brand of icraft Ultra Bond Glue, I will be buying this glue again.

I bought this to glue pictures on poster board. It says on the package “safe for pictures” but that is far from the truth. Luckily I only glued a few pictures with it and switched to two-way tape. It ruined the back of a couple of older pictures that mean alot but I was able to keep them together for the most part.

I will bot purchase this again.

This is a good scrapbooking glue, but be vary cautious about how much you use. The nozzle tip can ooze if you’re not careful and on slightly light paper it will warp the paper. Made the mistake of using it on a planner, the paper is a good thick printer type paper(thicker than printer paper, not quite cardstock) and the entire page was warped because there is little control of glue flow.

Most of the time I use a toothpick and spear a tiny bit of glue on what I’m gluing rather than risk the mess. While the broad tip has the issue of not really releasing any glue. I would suggest getting a different version.

The glue itself is okay, when you don’t have too much.

Have used this product for years and it’s ease of use and “sticktuativness” is superior to other brands I have tried! Just a great product for paper projects! Highly recommended!

Love this glue, it makes the best pouring medium.

Particularly impressed with the fine tip nozzle and the see through plastic cap like on a drink bottle. 🐸 Would definitely buy again.

Have used to make primer for oil painting and I am very pleased with the result. I will buy it again.

Im so sad because I broke a huge glass Christmas cross that we hang up every year. It only broke into four pieces. When I glued it together I thought it would stay. The next day when I picked it up, the entire thing fell apart.

Im so sad because I thought this stuff would work. Unfortunately, I have to throw it away. Super disappointed.

Purchased this to repair a broken “antique glass” quart milk bottle. I found that it, if it is applied heavier, has good weeping qualities, dries totally clear, and holds quite well. And after letting it set for a very few minutes, and wiping (smearing) off the excess glue, I found that lacquer thinner (on a cloth) would wipe the smeared material off very nicely, especially after a second wipe with a clean cloth.

Also used the same procedure to repair a very dainty glass candy dish, also with excellent results.

Works great but keep a wet rag handy to wipe off excess…it gets a bit “stringy” when you pull the tube away. Should also include a narrow nozzle tip for tight hard to get into jobs.

This product was exactly what I needed to adhere glass to metal. Only used a small amount, it dried very quickly and has held together well.

It glues great on glass, metal and hard objects that other glues cant tame. I like the fact that it holds good and last for a long time.

I have used this product for years. My daughter was an Irish dancer and The E 6000 was the only glue that would work with the SWAROVSKI crystals staying on the dresses and not falling off as they were dancing.

SWAROVSKI Crystals are very expensive so we needed them to stay on the dress and E 6000 is the only blue that did that. You will need to work efficiently with this glue as it dries faster than other Glooze.

But if you plan your project and have everything ready, that is not a problem.

This glue is fantastic for my craft and sewing projects. It hold leather, cork, fabric, wood,and other hard-to-adhere materials surprisingly well! It dries clear, which I need, and stays flexible too.

There is an epoxy odor while it is drying, but diminishes significantly when dry. The benefits of its holding ability and other qualities outweighs the temporary odor when I’ve used it. It’s now my “go to glue” for my craft projects! Please keep more of this in stock! TY.

After trying a few different “clear” glass glues to make small display cases, I found that they ended up not perfectly clear and were tough to put together. Even though the loctite glass glue was fast to adhere, the bond is not perfect and I had to spend a lot of time sanding the sides down just to get it close enough to adhere at all.

With the Nano470 on the other hand (though it takes maybe 60 seconds per piece to adhere) it works great. The bonds are much stronger and I found that I don’t even have to sand both sides of the glass pieces in order for them to bond.

The bond is also much stronger so I feel much more comfortable with them. The Nano470 also is super clear once it dries, creating a beautiful display case rather then the slightly whitened edges. Not that much more expensive (mostly due to the amount 20g vs normal 0.

7-4g) but does so much better of a job I would recommend it to anyone gluing glass to glass. This product has made it so that I feel much more inclined to work with glass rather then acrylic. Thanks for the great product!.
